KTM 990 RC R: MotoGP Aero Meets Road-Legal Street Fighter

Designed with direct DNA borrowed from the KTM RC16 MotoGP machine, the 990 RC R represents a dedicated, road-legal supersport package:

• Downforce Winglets: Features wind-tunnel-sculpted aerodynamic winglets engineered to produce up to 14.4 kg of downforce at 252 km/h, keeping the front tyre planted under hard acceleration and high-speed sweepers.
• LC8c Parallel-Twin: Powered by a 947 cc parallel-twin mill generating 127.84 PS and 103 Nm of torque, managed by a comprehensive 6D IMU with lean-sensitive Cornering ABS (featuring 4 modes) and customizable ride modes (Street, Rain, Sport, and Custom).
• Chassis & Hardware: Fitted with fully adjustable WP APEX suspension, top-tier Brembo HyPure four-piston radial front calipers, and a horizontal 8.88-inch landscape touchscreen TFT binnacle.
• Extended Servicing: The valve clearance inspection interval has doubled from 15,000 km to 30,000 km.

The 1390 Super Adventure Trio: 1,350 cc Muscle and Clutchless AMT

The flagship adventure lineup sees its displacement swell from 1,301 cc to 1,350 cc, boasting a notable bump in punch alongside extended 60,000 km valve clearance service intervals (up from 30,000 km):

1. KTM 1390 Super Adventure S (RM144,000) – The High-Speed Tarmac Tourer

Tuned for continental cross-country cruising, the S variant churns out 173 PS and 145 Nm of torque. It is equipped with electronically governed WP Semi-Active Technology (SAT) suspension that adjusts damping dynamically to surface changes. Comfort is elevated with an updated windshield offering +15 mm of adjustability, cornering LED headlights, and an 8-inch portrait touchscreen TFT loaded with offline map navigation.

2. KTM 1390 Super Adventure R (RM146,500) – The Pure Off-Road Master

Aimed at extreme trails and rally routes, the ‘R’ steps up output to 175 PS and 145 Nm. It drops electronic suspension in favor of heavy-duty, manually adjustable long-travel WP XPLOR suspension, a low off-road flyscreen, a flat single-piece enduro saddle, and tubeless wire-spoked wheels (21-inch front, 18-inch rear) wrapped in knobby dirt tyres.

3. KTM 1390 Super Adventure S Evo (RM153,000) – The Tech Showcase

The range-topping S Evo introduces KTM’s groundbreaking Automated Manual Transmission (AMT). The setup eliminates the physical clutch lever entirely, managing starting, stopping, and shifts automatically, while giving riders the freedom to switch instantly between fully automatic mode and manual gear selection via handlebar paddles or foot shifter. Highway stamina is enhanced by standard Bosch 5th-generation front radar, supporting full Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) alongside WP Semi-Active suspension.
