KTM 690 SMC
THE SINGLE-CYLINDER FOR WINNERS
The 690 SMC debuted as the Supermoto spearhead of the LC4 family in the 2008 model year. Its high-tech platform with a self supporting plastic tail tank originates from the 690 Enduro and has been modified to meet Supermoto requirements. Although the 690 SMC is clearly sportier than the 690 SM, it is also far more suited to everyday riding than a thoroughbred racing machine such as the 450 SMR. And of course, it is also roadhomologated. Whatever the terrain, its power to weight ratio is impressive: a 63 HP (46 kW) output is easy at a weight of just 139 kg! The steel trellis frame helps keep the weight down while also providing maximum rigidity. Premium-quality, fully adjustable WP chassis components are fitted to the front and tail and make the 690 SMC perfect for drifting. The new tubeless wheels not only allow the use of tubeless tyres, they also reduce the weight by nearly half a kilo, optimising the 690 SMC's suspension, acceleration and agility. The 2010 models also have new paintwork and a new speedometer dial.
