The 2010 KTM 990 Supermoto R is a purpose-built machine that embodies the essence of supermoto riding. Its 75-degree V-twin LC8 engine, a carryover from the Super Duke R, delivers a potent 115 horsepower and 72 lb-ft of torque. The addition of Brembo brakes with monoblock radial-mount calipers and a fully adjustable suspension system, front and rear, make this bike a formidable handler on both road and dirt.
Riding the Supermoto R is an exhilarating experience, with its short gearing and responsive power delivery making it a joy to carve through twisties. The 990 R’s unique engine character, with its smooth, linear power delivery and hint of character, makes it an ideal companion for both short, spirited blasts and longer, more leisurely rides.
With its razor-sharp handling, impressive power output, and Brembo brakes, the KTM 990 Supermoto R is a true supermoto icon, setting the standard for its class.
