Lights, mirrors, side-stand and other street requirements are gone replaced by a high value - but also entry-level friendly - race-ready configuration with low maintenance, easy to repair and detailed dealer support. Protectors for brake lever and the rear aluminum sprocket, quick release fuel cap, wet weather taillight, swingarm paddock bobbins and a paddock stand supplied as standard are more evidence of the KTM 990 RC R TRACK's primary purpose. The injected plastic race-ready fairing and bodywork is designed to allow the appliance of personal decals and graphics.THE SOURCE OF SPEEDEngineBuilding on the KTM 990 RC R's 947 cc, parallel twin DOHC LC8c motor, the TRACK version has boosted numbers to befit its racier status. The KTM 990 RC R range has one of the most compact packages on the market with one of the best power-to-weight ratios. A key component of the performance comes through the full Akrapovic Evolution line exhaust, kitted in stainless steel and weighing just 3 kg (6.6 lb) which hones the 98.2 dB output further. The system permits a five-level engine brake configuration. Straights will feel even shorter, especially with the racing gearbox providing a longer shift from first and a shorter sixth.PERFORMANCE & EDGEErgonomicsGetting to the point to allow you to the point of the apex. The KTM 990 RC R TRACK's ergonomics have been 'sharpened' with a flatter, angled seat, optimum contact surfaces and adjustable footpegs. The 15.7 l (4.14 gal) tank has been sculpted through repeated tests and feedback from elite racers and to maximize the possibilities of the '6 contact points'. The rider can pivot around the motorcycle to exert control through legs, knees and arms, and scythe through the tightest network of corners at will. The redesigned, machined, black aluminum clip-on handlebars are fixed 10 mm lower on the triple clamp and 3 degrees downwards. Count on adjustable levers (+ or - 6 degrees) while the footpegs have been moved 25 mm up and can adjust higher through 6 different settings. The gear shifter can be reversed with a simple change of the screw connection point.APEX LOVERChassisThe KTM 990 RC R TRACK's chassis geometry is fixed accordingly with an emphasis of 52.5% to 47.5% front/rear weight distribution. The offset is measured at 33 mm with a steering angle at 25 degrees for improved steering sensation and a planted front end. The aluminum diecast swingarm - with a minimalistic linkage swingarm construction mechanism - brings increased flex for increased stability, and manageability across track bumps for this 170 kg/374.7 lb (dry weight) rocket. An adjustable steering damper is also mounted for peak control through the quickest racing lines.
