POSTED: 13/03/2025
The KTM 390 SMC R is here, bringing Supermoto attitude to the middleweight category. Whether you’re slicing through city traffic or backing it into a tight corner, this bike is built to thrill. Light, agile, and packed with performance, it takes the best of KTM’s racing pedigree and makes it accessible to anyone who wants to experience pure riding fun.
Clutch In, Revs Up!
The heart of the 390 SMC R is its powerful 373cc single-cylinder engine, delivering 39 Nm of torque for instant throttle response. Matched with a slick six-speed gearbox and a Power Assist Slipper Clutch (PASC), gear changes are smooth and precise. Whether you're charging into a hairpin or rolling on the throttle out of a bend, this setup keeps everything under control while maximising fun.
Drop the Clutch!
Supermoto riding is all about balance, control, and precision, and the KTM 390 SMC R is built to deliver exactly that. Its lightweight steel trellis frame, paired with high-spec WP APEX suspension, offers razor-sharp handling. Fully adjustable front and rear suspension allow riders to dial in their setup, ensuring the perfect response whether you're carving through twisties or sliding into a turn.
Hit the Road
From city streets to open roads, the 390 SMC R is at home in any environment. Its low weight of just 154 kg (without fuel) makes it incredibly nimble, while the 9-litre fuel tank ensures you can keep the fun going for longer. The bike’s aggressive Supermoto styling, compact LED headlight, and premium finishes make it stand out, whether parked up or in full flight.
Carve It Up
Braking is just as important as acceleration in Supermoto riding, and the KTM 390 SMC R doesn’t disappoint. With a 320mm front disc and a 240mm rear disc, backed up by advanced cornering ABS, you get the confidence to brake late and push the limits. The lightweight wheels wrapped in Metzeler tyres provide exceptional grip, letting you lean hard and ride with precision.
