On a single-cylinder supermoto of around 147 kg dry, taking 2,4 kg off the silencer is a proportion that is felt rather than argued about — and it comes off high and to one side, which on a bike ridden on its side is exactly where it counts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Dakar Shape on a Supermoto\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpark drew the Dakar around the desert rally: a plain squared case, no carbon cap, no ribbing. On the 690 SMC R — a machine Spark describes as versatile for every kind of road, on and off it — the shape suits the bike's own stripped-back character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe finish is dark style, an electrochemical colouring of the metal rather than a coating, so a stone strike does not take a layer off.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAvailable While Stocks Last\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpark marks this article as available while stocks last. That is the manufacturer's own note and it means the number is being run out rather than restocked — if you want one, do not plan around it being there next season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrack Use Only\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpark lists the slip-on as racing. There is no homologation certificate, and it must not be fitted to a motorcycle used on public roads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Note on the Price List\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpark's 2026 price list describes this entry as a slip-on for the KTM 890 and Norden 901, while the article page for the same number is unambiguously about the 690 SMC R. We follow the article page, as we do wherever the two disagree — but if you ride an 890 or a Norden and want this silencer, ask us and we will confirm it with Spark first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Comes Off\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe standard 690 SMC R silencer is a steel can under a pressed shield, sized around the noise regulation rather than around the motorcycle. Spark replaces it together with its connecting pipe; the manifold and the catalytic converter stay where KTM put them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitting is well under an hour with hand tools, and nothing needs re-mapping afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDark Style, and Why It Matters Here\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn electrochemically coloured surface is part of the metal rather than a layer over it. On a supermoto that gets dropped in car parks and ridden down gravel tracks, that is the difference between a scuff and a bare patch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt also suits the bike: KTM finishes the 690's frame, subframe and swingarm dark, and a bare metal silencer would be the only bright object at the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eKTM 690 SMC R, 2021 to 2023, per Spark's own article page for this number.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNone.
