Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a bike best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable with a torquey V-twin, sharp steering, and aggressive brakes.
PurposeBuilt for carving corners and attacking twisty roads with supermoto-derived agility and big-bike power.
Rider FitThe tall 855mm seat height and upright, compact riding position demand decent leg length and reward an active, engaged riding style.
CharacterIt has the temperament of a hooligan streetfighter, blending motocross-style handling with strong midrange punch and sharp, direct feedback.
Not Ideal ForIt's not a good match for riders wanting a plush, long-distance tourer or a beginner-friendly, low-effort commuter.

2010 KTM 990 Supermoto T Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 855mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2010 KTM 990 Supermoto T, with a relaxed knee angle of around 135 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
