2011 KTM 990 Supermoto T Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in KTM's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 2011 KTM 990 Supermoto T features a 999 cc (61 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 114 HP (83.2 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 97 Nm (71.5 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 114.1 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (9,000 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the 990 Supermoto T measures 196 kg (432 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.58 HP/kg (1.72 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 855 mm (33.7 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,505 mm (59.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 19-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
