2023 KTM 690 SMC R at Rockstar Powersports St.Petersburg

Take a look at this used 2023 KTM 690 SMC R here at Rockstar Powersports St. Petersburg. This one has low miles, is mainly stock, and is a great example of KTM's street-legal supermoto. The only notable upgrade is a set of Zeta XC hand guards, adding some extra protection without changing the overall character of the bike. The 690 SMC R is powered by KTM's 693cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, producing strong, punchy power in a lightweight package. It's the kind of bike that feels right at home carving through back roads, navigating around town, or just having some fun on the street. The big single delivers plenty of torque while keeping the bike relatively simple and lightweight. At the heart of the SMC R is its supermoto-focused chassis. You get 17-inch wheels, a tall riding position, long-travel suspension, and a lightweight frame that gives the bike quick, responsive handling. With a seat height around 35 inches and a dry weight in the neighborhood of 320 pounds, this isn't your typical low-slung street bike — it's built to be nimble and aggressive. Suspension comes from WP, with an adjustable inverted fork up front and an adjustable rear shock. The combination of long suspension travel and lightweight construction gives the 690 SMC R plenty of ability to handle rougher pavement while still feeling planted when you're pushing through corners. Braking is another major highlight, with a large front disc and Brembo caliper up front along with a rear disc. Bosch ABS with Supermoto ABS functionality gives you additional flexibility when riding aggressively, allowing the bike to retain that supermoto feel while still providing modern electronic assistance. The bike also comes equipped with KTM's ride-by-wire throttle, traction control, multiple riding modes, LED lighting, and a six-speed transmission. It's a modern package underneath the minimalist bodywork, but KTM has kept the bike focused on the things that make a supermoto fun. The Zeta XC hand guards are a nice addition for anyone who plans on putting some real-world miles on the bike. They provide additional protection for the hands and controls while giving the handlebars a tougher, more purposeful look. And with the low mileage and mostly stock configuration, this one gives you a great starting point if you're looking for a 690 SMC R that hasn't been heavily modified. You get KTM's factory supermoto setup with just a practical upgrade already taken care of. If you're looking for something lightweight, powerful, and seriously fun to ride, the 690 SMC R is definitely worth a look. It's part street bike, part supermoto, and a whole lot of fun.
