LAUNCHED alongside the firm's flagship 1290 Super Adventure, KTM's new 1050 Adventure is the latest 'big bike' aimed at riders on a restricted licence. At 95hp, it sits bang on the power limit for bikes to be restricted to 47hp for A2 licence holders. It may seem like an odd decision from KTM to have three Adventure models all within 250cc of
The 790 motor is livelier than the Honda’s—a given, really, when you consider the capacity difference. The KTM’s internals are much lighter, and the motor spins up with an intoxicating velocity that makes you want to wick it up and cut all kinds of funky angles with that forgiving chassis.
Woody's wheels sells rotor adapters making all 950/990 fronts fit directly on all 1050/1090/1190/1290 adventure models. In fact if you call woodys and order a front wheel, it's the same wheel for either bike model, just the new gen bike owners are supplied a wheel fitted with the adapters. Couldn't be easier. #10.

ALBUQUERQUE, NM. A number of my friends have recently purchased KTM 1090 Adventures. I have a 2008 KTM 950 Super Enduro R and am wondering which is the best bike between the two for riding dirt roads. The 950 is about 50 lbs lighter and is easier to mount and dismount than the 1090. I love my SE and would hate to sell it and find out later that
Aug 12, 2007. Oddometer: 3,342. Location: 356 miles SE or 539 miles NW of Orla, Texas. Jeff Slavens sent an add for a KTM 1190 high fender mount. That caught my eye as I had done a high fender mount for my 990 and it worked out well. I received my mount (it is actually produced by Flatland Racing so you could get it there also).

If I had bought a KTM 1290SA I would have compared it against the XP but since I bought the 1190 then that is were the comparison comes from. Anyway although I do not disagree with you my wallet does, the 1290SA as a second-hand bike would have come in around ÂŁ3,000 more than the 1190. To deep for my pockets. #4.
Case in point, the 2020 KTM 1290 Super Adventure R. With Dakar-inspired styling, longer suspension travel than the road-going S model, crash guards, and spoked wheels, the R is geared for any
The 990 was also the first KTM to feature ABS. 2013 – 2016: 1190 ADVENTURE & 1190 ADVENTURE R. The arrival of the KTM 1190 Adventure and KTM 1190 Adventure R in 2013 heralded a new era of technology and versatility for KTM in the Travel Enduro segment. Sophisticated electronics – married to improved ergonomics and a radically more powerful
If you see my sig then you see I mostly buy newer models due to the technology and refinements. Heck, I bought 3 Tuonos to just get more features with the same 1100 motor. Ultimately it is the motor that matters and it is the reason why I got my 43k mile 990 adv beater after previously shopping for 1190/1290 and ended up saving 5-6k.
It adds up on 2hr+ rides. 3) Weight + distribution. The 890 feels much different than the 1290 on and off road. On road it turns in quicker and has better front end feel in the transitions and turns, but when you are in a straight line it takes a little more input than the 1290.
For a moment, I though “Huh, 2 stroke”. Just for a moment… During my visit with my local KTM dealer, today (a couple hours ago), he stated “mid-may” for availability of the 790 Adventure (Arizona). I sat on the 790 Duke that was on the floor. That cycle is *tiny* compared to the 1090, 1190, and 1290 that were right next to it.
The 17-20 1290's were prone to setting fire to your legs if your going slow in high heat (25c plus) they were better than the 1190's to some degree (I owned both at same time) I fitted the insulated rear headers to both my 1190 and 1290 and they help a bit.

These things are pricier than I thought. Looking at these: Corbin: Corbin Motorcycle Seats & Accessories | KTM 1190 Adventure R | 800-538-7035.
