Kurt gives his just-completed KTM 790 Adventure R bike build a shakedown test in the rocks. Comfort and Convenience. Comfort is often secondary on bikes aimed at single track hard dual-sport use. But adventure riding often means long days in the saddle, on everything from interstates to two tracks.
So I'm thinking of down-sizing, and I'm drawn to the Tiger 900 and the KTM 790 Adventure R. On the practical side, I live at the end of a dirt/sand road, and I can get the 1200 up/down just fine with the Heidenau tires I put on, but I have nowhere near the comfort level I would on a lighter, smaller machine.
The 2021 KTM 890 Adventure R is an off-road-ready ADV bike powered by a 90-horsepower 889cc parallel twin. Iām in Morocco for the global launch of the 790 Adventure and 790 Adventure R. With
The 24 300 XC having spring vs. air forks was a surprise to me given it was a brand new bike in 23.

We ran the KTM 790 Adventure R on our in-house Dynojet 250i dyno ahead of an upcoming comparison test, recording horsepower and torque measurements. The Adventure R produced a peak 83.37 hp at
Star Tannery, VA. Yep, a bot of foam under the battery holder is all that's needed for the AntiGravity ATZ-10 Restart to fit nice and snug in the 790. I've tested the re start feature twice. Once unintentionally when my VRR became unplugged while on a ride and a second time iintentionally for a video I shot about it.
Die neue KTM 790 Adventure und 790 Adventure R 2019 wurden ausgiebig in Marokko getestet. Wir fuhren die MotorrƤder im Vergleich auf der StraĆe und im GelƤnd
I think triumph screwed up in one area with the 900. It should of been 105 hp at least just like the 890. The new 850 should of been limited to 94hp. The 890 has much better low end trq then the 790 and is more powerful. And is better behaved on the street.
