If there’s one thing that’s true about major motorcycle manufacturers in general, it’s that any new engine design that it’s taken time to painstakingly develop is going to go in more than one machine. While rumors and spy photos of what appears to be the upcoming KTM RC 990 have appeared in the past, this most recent batch shows street testing of a prototype in Europe.
It’s powered by the same heavily modified LC8c engine as should power the KTM 990 Duke Prototype that was also recently spotted testing in Europe. It’s also expected to use the same chassis underneath that fairing.
