Handcrafted precision from Austria
The WP APEX PRO suspension is developed in Austria and manufactured by hand. Each component is precisely tuned to optimally support the motorcycle’s maximum performance and riding potential. The focus is on the WP APEX PRO 8500 cartridge, equipped with modern CLOSED CARTRIDGE technology. The separation of the damping system reduces the oil volume, minimizes cavitation, and thus ensures constant damping performance even under extreme conditions. The goal is uncompromising performance on the racetrack and a high level of comfort on the road.
Technology from motorsports
The APEX PRO 8500 cartridge comes directly from the WP Factory Racing program. In addition to its technical features, it stands out with its racing design and is intended to be a clear commitment to the brand’s competitive orientation. However, the main focus is on the noticeably precise feedback to the rider. The improved feedback to the handlebars and seat enables a closer connection between the rider, motorcycle, and road surface.
Individual chassis tuning
A key feature of the WP APEX PRO 8500 cartridge is its wide range of adjustability. Riders can individually adjust the compression, rebound, and spring preload. The wide selection of available spring rates and quick spring replacement—without dismantling the fork—make it easy to tune the chassis to different requirements.
APEX PRO 8750 shock absorber: More control and grip
The WP APEX PRO 8750 shock absorber is available as a supplement to the cartridge. According to the manufacturer, it is designed to provide improved grip, greater rear wheel stability, and earlier acceleration. The shock absorber was developed to offer more reserves and safety during late braking maneuvers. The aim is to optimize the feeling of control, even under demanding conditions.
The inline design not only allows for quick spring replacement, but also, according to the manufacturer, maximum contact area and precise feedback. Potentiometer mounting points allow for precise electronic tuning. Adjustment options for high- and low-speed compression, rebound, hydraulic spring preload, and length adjustment support fine-tuning for different riding styles.
Conclusion: READY TO RACE technology for the road
With the combination of the APEX PRO 8500 cartridge and 8750 shock absorber, the KTM 990 series is equipped with state-of-the-art suspension technology, according to the manufacturer. The combination of motorsport DNA and precise craftsmanship offers an optimized riding experience for both the road and the racetrack, according to the manufacturer.
