Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 890 Adventure 2021

The Adventure conveys a light-footedness and sportiness that is often missing in the class of touring enduros. The engine is lively and ensures rapid overtaking manoeuvres at the pass. However, the cheeky sportiness loses something of the dignified travelling comfort that one wishes for, especially on longer stages.

Super engine with linear, extremely superior power delivery

Very finely controlled brakes

Comprehensive electronics

Good ergonomics for both sitting and standing riding

Low seat height also suits shorter people

Quickshifter is an absolute dream and doubles the riding fun

Low centre of gravity creates great handling

Pricing policy for extras

telescopic fork at the front not adjustable

important components, such as quickshifter and cruise control, not included as standard.
