KTM has today officially confirmed that the much-loved (and slightly bonkers) SMT is making a return, as the KTM 890 SMT.

KTM confirmed it’s going to reveal a brand new 890 SMT mannequin, including a new supermoto-inspired middleweight sport-tourer to its 2023 lineup.

Spy photographs of a prototype popped up last October and once more in January, and we now know the brand new SMT can be revealed on April 24.

KTM 890 SMT confirmed

The final model to bear the establish was the 990 SMT, which was discontinued in 2013. After an entire decade, the SMT will return, presumably using the identical engine that powers the 890 Adventure and 890 Duke.

Whereas the quite quick save-the-date launch from KTM doesn’t go into specifics, we will hazard a guess in regards to the efficiency and engine specs.

The shared components imply it’s simple to take an informed guess at things like its power. In Adventure form, the 889cc LC8c parallel twin is nice for a claimed 104PS and the determine for the SMT is prone to be slightly above that, however lower than the 120PS 890 Duke R.

These numbers should put it proper within the mix with bikes just like the Yamaha Tracer 9 GT (117bhp) and Ducati Multistrada V2 (113bhp), if KTM is devoted with its modern-day tackle the SMT, this may be essentially the most enjoyable to ride.
