Description / 2026 KTM 990 RC R
Almost twenty years ago, the KTM RC8 demonstrated that KTM could deliver the same intensity on asphalt as they had long mastered offroad. That legacy has now evolved into the KTM 990 RC R, a next-generation, track-focused, performance-driven Supersport motorcycle engineered with absolute intent. Designed to dominate apexes with precision, built with premium components, and refined for real-world usability, the KTM 990 RC R represents the most advanced expression of KTM’s READY TO RACE philosophy. Born, bred, and built in Austria, it delivers the perfect balance between aggression, control, and everyday practicality.
At its core is a EURO 5+ compliant 947 cm³ DOHC parallel twin producing 130 PS and 103 Nm of torque, paired with a responsive 6-speed transmission and Bosch EMS with ride-by-wire for exceptional throttle precision. The liquid-cooled powerplant uses a water/oil heat exchanger for optimal thermal management, while a stainless steel primary and secondary silencer complete the performance-focused exhaust design.
The chassis is engineered for sharp handling, featuring a Chromium-Molybdenum steel frame that uses the engine as a stressed element for maximum rigidity. WP APEX suspension components provide fully adjustable damping and preload, ensuring confidence both on the track and on the street. Braking power comes from dual 320 mm front discs with radially mounted four-piston calipers, and a 240 mm rear disc with single-piston caliper. Lightweight cast aluminium wheels (3.5 x 17 front, 5.5 x 17 rear) paired with a 520 X-Ring chain deliver consistent performance.
Ergonomics are tuned for dynamic riding with an 845 mm seat height, 15.7-litre fuel tank, and purposeful geometry including a 65.8° steering head angle and 98.5 mm trail. Ground clearance stands at 163 mm, while the motorcycle weighs 184 kg without fuel and 195 kg fully fueled.
The KTM 990 RC R is a true evolution of KTM’s Supersport engineering, designed to ignite adrenaline on the track while remaining perfectly capable on public roads. It is a machine built with intent, precision, and an uncompromising racing pedigree.
