2012 KTM 990 SMT
THE LONG-DISTANCE SUPERMOTO
Why should you have less fun flicking through the turns in of
the Black Forrest, the Ardennes or the Pyrenees than you have on your home
track? The world is full of twisties. The problem is mainly in getting there.
The solution is clear: take a light 2-cylinder Supermoto with power to spare
and have some smart people integrate all those items that make long journeys
easier. Like a frame mounted fairing with smart aerodynamics. Like a stepped
seat for your pillion or luggage bag. Like a larger tank. Also a standard
luggage carrying system that will help you stow your kit close to the centre
of gravity. Et voilà: you get a long-distance Supermoto that combines
sporting DNA with endurance and comfort like no other genre.
Small wonder that the KTM 990 SM Ts fan count has exploded
since its launch 2009.
