KTM 790 adventure R review from KNOX
A few months ago we featured the KTM 790 Adventure R on the Knox armour channel when I got out to the KTM all new adventure Experience in wales. This is the follow up review to the 790 Adventure R where we have had the bike for a few weeks out in the Lake District where the Knox factory is based and we’ve spent quite a lot more time getting our heads around the bike and how it behaves both on the road and off it.
To see our original review at the Sweetlamb complex, please see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWlmOeq8ANA.
The 790 Adventure is a truly great bike and while in some ways might be a small compromise to a fully road biased machine, the KTM 790 Adventure R does a fantastic job of combining true off-road capabilities with some great on road manners. All in all, we love the bike and think most people will too.
The full specs and listing to the bike are available on https://www.ktm.com/gb/travel/790-adventure-r/.
KTM also do a more road biased model, the KTM 790 Adventure. This is based on the same model but has a different specification less suited to off road work.
We also compare the 790 Adventure R to the new Yamaha Tenere, https://youtu.be/0jv3IE2iBR4 and the BMW 850gs which we are hoping to get our hands on over the next couple of months. However, considering the specifications of these other models, the KTM 790 adventure R is likely to be the best mid-weight adventure bike for off road.
