2026 KTM 990 RC R

The 990 RC R marks KTM’s return to the true supersport segment: compact, firm, and clearly designed for aggressive riding. The 947 cc parallel twin delivers strong, controllable power and excels particularly when accelerating out of corners.

Handling is highly precise, stable under heavy braking, and provides strong front-end feedback—typical KTM: direct, active, and demanding.

Compared to liter-class superbikes, it offers less peak power but stands out with agility and clarity. The standard tires further emphasize its track-focused character.
