2026 KTM 690 SMC REngine

Welcome to the next generation of the legendary KTM LC4 single-cylinder powerhouse! 

Still as bulletproof and hard-hitting as ever, but updated with new Clutch and Stator covers, crankcase, an improved oil delivery system, and - most importantly - more performance. 

2026 KTM 690 SMC RTRACK MODE

Unlock even more customization and ability with the optional TRACK Mode. Thanks to the full color TFT display, riders can use TRACK Mode to toggle additional settings like Launch Control, Anti-wheelie Mode, a slip-adjuster, and Motor-slip regulation at the touch of a button.

2026 KTM 690 SMC ROFFROAD ABS

Optional SPORT ABS allows riders to be more aggressive on the brakes before ABS intervenes. While ABS functionality remains active on both the front and rear wheels, ABS intervenes a little later, allowing rides to brake harder, with rear-wheel lift-up intervention reduced to allow for harder, more precise braking maneuvers.

2026 KTM 690 SMC RLED Lighting

Equipped with a powerful LED headlight and LED indicators. Not only do these work when the world becomes dark, but they also provide improved visibility when navigating busy traffic or misty road conditions.

2026 KTM 690 SMC RRear Shock

Upfront, a 43 mm WP APEX open cartridge fork with 230 mm travel keeps things in check, with adjustable compression and rebound in 30 easy clicks for easy adjustment. On the rear, any big hits are handled by a WP APEX Separate piston shock absorber with 230 mm of travel. The shock is also rebound adjustable with 20 clicks on the fly, while preload adjustment can be taken care of with a tool.

2026 KTM 690 SMC RBrakes

Pulling out all the stops, the KTM 390 ENDURO R is equipped with a 285 mm brake disc and Bybre caliper up front and a 240 mm brake disc and single-piston caliper at the rear. These are supported by KTM's proven ABS technology, but this can also be disabled completely for added agility offroad.

2026 KTM 690 SMC RFrame

A little stiffer than previous generations, the KTM 690 SMC R is built around a familiar trellis frame, manufactured from lightweight sections of top-quality chrome-molybdenum steel tubing. Engineered to have high torsional rigidity for the best blend of handling, it is also specifically tuned for longitudinal flexibility to absorb wheel impact energy.

2026 KTM 690 SMC RFront Fork

Maximum Supermoto control is enhanced by the WP APEX 48 upside-down fork. The split fork design developed by WP and KTM has been adapted for the KTM 690 SMC R. It is fitted with springs on both sides with separate damping functions - compression is on the left and rebound on the right-hand side. They have no negative influence on each other. Therefore, damping can easily be adjusted via the dials on top of both fork tubes, with 30 clicks of adjustment each.
