I rode from Murmansk to Nordkapp last summer. I only see one road between Kirkenes and Murmansk on google maps, and only saw one on my paper maps last summer? If you're asking about the route between Nordkapp and Kirkenes--whether to take the road along the coast or ride inland (via Finland) to Kirkenes--I took the coast road and it was fine; fully paved other than a short (4-5 km) stretch of construction.
In any event, the road that I took was fine; paved and in decent condition. Watch out for reindeer and moose on the Norwegian side, they are everywhere, including on the road and in tunnels (!). On the Russian side there are no animals...
Where are you going from Murmansk?
