S žádným jiným Bigendurem nemůžete jet tak tvrdě na koleně, a proto skončit daleko vpředu na startovním roštu. Pokud se na svých prázdninových cestách často cítíte napadáni, měli byste se Versysem 1000 bojovat. Což dokazuje, že velká endura a čtyřválce si rozumí.

Podle mého názoru KTM 1050 Adventure navazuje na model 990 Adventure, který před několika lety skončil: Výkon kolem 100 koní, hravé jízdní vlastnosti a tolik nebo tolik elektroniky, kolik je v současnosti nejmodernější. Motor je všechno, jen ne slabý, ABS a kontrola trakce regulují bezpečně a nenápadně a řízení je mimořádně zábavné, mimo jiné i díky relativně úzkým pneumatikám. A to vše za cenu, kterou v lize velkých cestovních endur podbízí jen několik málo konkurentů. Ač je to smutné, cena obou 1190 Adventures a především vlajkové lodi 1290 Super Adventure se vyšplhala do velmi vysokých hodnot. A právě proto je KTM 1050 Adventure možná nejsoudržnějším ze čtyř modelů Adventure.
