Conclusion from the 1000PS editorial team
The KTM 690 SMC R 2026 impressively demonstrates how an already powerful single-cylinder can be further improved. It offers more power, a significantly upgraded electronics package, less maintenance and at the same time remains true to its character. Despite a slight increase in weight, it is more agile than ever and impresses in both sporty and everyday use. For NoPain, one thing is certain: the SuMo crown belongs back in Mattighofen in 2025.
