The wait is over. The 2026 KTM 990 RC R has landed and it’s everything Supersport fans have been asking for. Built for sharp handling, fast track days and real-world road riding, this new machine blends performance and practicality in a way only KTM can.
With aggressive styling, smart tech and punchy power, the 990 RC R takes its place at the front of KTM’s street line-up. Whether you’re chasing apexes or just want a bike that looks like it belongs on the MotoGP grid, this one ticks all the right boxes.
Built for the Track, Refined for the Road
At the heart of the 990 RC R is KTM’s trusted LC8c engine, delivering 130 PS and 103 Nm of torque. It’s EURO5+ compliant and feels quick, responsive and confident at any speed. The chassis is purpose-built too, combining a steel frame, die-cast aluminium subframe and adjustable ergonomics to give you the best of both agility and comfort.
The riding position is READY TO RACE but still practical for everyday use, with a supportive six-point contact patch at the tank, pegs, seat and bars. Adjustable footrests and a 16-litre fuel tank add further comfort and convenience.
Racing DNA Meets Everyday Versatility
The styling leaves no doubt about the bike’s track inspiration. Aerodynamically tested and shaped using KTM’s own racing data, the wind-tunnel-developed fairing, striking orange or black colour options and sharp angles deliver real presence on the road.
Underneath the bodywork, you’ll find a spec sheet that’s all business:
- 320 mm Brembo HyPure brakes
- WP APEX suspension
- 8.8” TFT display with RAIN, STREET, SPORT and CUSTOM ride modes
- Optional TRACK mode and two extra CUSTOM modes
- Four ABS settings: STREET, SPORT, SUPERMOTO+ and SUPERMOTO
With added telemetry like lean angle and throttle position tracking, the 990 RC R gives riders detailed feedback to keep them in control, on the road or on the circuit.
Track Version Now Available
For riders focused purely on racing, the KTM 990 RC R TRACK version is also now available. This track-only machine skips road components in favour of race-focused upgrades, including:
- Direct brake lines
- Removed ABS modulator
- Track-tuned gearbox
- Reduced dash and race-spec electronics
It’s a purpose-built race bike, developed at KTM’s Mattighofen factory to get you closer to the limit from the first lap.
