PURE PERFORMANCE...
With its self confident, bull-like appearance, the KTM
990 Supermoto manages to put on a show - even when on
its stand. Set it in motion, and you’re practically
unbeatable.
What’s the magic formula that makes our bikes
so much fun? It’s no secret. Take the 990 Supermoto.
No other manufacturer comes even close to being as consequent
as KTM. The extremely compact LC8 engine weighs only
58 kg, making it the lightest Twin in the 1,000 cc class.
The stable chromium-molybdenum frame, weighing only
11 kg, is a real lightweight. The short, 1,510 mm wheelbase
together with the radical 64.6° steering head angle
guarantees an extremely sporty riding experience. The
finely tuned WP chassis is as convincing on country
roads as it is on the motorway.
In a word: The KTM 990 Supermoto feels as light as
a single cylinder and goes like the devil.
