Our take on this /// Verdict
The KTM 690 SMC is a formidable machine that excels in its niche as a supermoto bike. Its liquid-cooled 693cc single-cylinder engine, coupled with a 6-speed gearbox and ride-by-wire throttle, makes it a joy to ride, especially in tight, twisty lanes and urban environments. The bikes agility and cornering prowess are standout features, thanks to its supermoto geometry and high-quality WP suspension. However, it may feel slightly underpowered compared to larger capacity bikes on open roads, and the lack of a tachometer can be a minor inconvenience. Overall, the 690 SMC R is perfect for those who crave the thrill of supermoto riding and appreciate its unique blend of power and handling.
Price
The KTM 690 SMC, although discontinued in India, was last priced at around 7,80,000 ex-showroom in Delhi. When it was available, the on-road price would have been slightly higher, typically ranging from 8,50,000 to 9,00,000 depending on the state and local taxes. While it may seem pricey, the bikes performance, build quality, and exclusive nature justify the cost for enthusiasts. However, since it is no longer in production, potential buyers would need to explore the used bike market or consider newer models from KTM.
Mileage
Tuesday, 19 November 2024 09:32 PM
The mileage of the KTM 690 SMC in India is not particularly stellar, given its high-performance nature. You can expect an average fuel efficiency of around 15-20 kml, depending on riding conditions. This is typical for a powerful single-cylinder engine designed for performance rather than economy. While it may not be the most fuel-efficient option, the thrill and satisfaction of riding the 690 SMC often outweigh concerns about running costs for serious enthusiasts.
