Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW F 800 GS 2009

Fully equipped with special equipment from Touratech, the BMW looked very imposing and gave the impression of a real, masculine adventurer's motorbike. Headlight grille, engine guard, grippy, wider footrests, and much more hopefully deceived many eyewitnesses about the same-sex partnership on the breathable comfort seat.

Fully equipped with optional extras

imposing impression

good workmanship

pleasant chassis.

KTM 390 Adventure 2022

The small 390 Adventurr can be seen as an absolute all-rounder in its class and a real value-for-money winner. The high-quality electronics package and the powerful single-cylinder make it a pure fun machine that does not overtax inexperienced on- and off-road riders, but supports them. The sporty but comfortable seating position and the decent wind protection make even longer tours possible. No matter what surface you ride it on, the 390 Adventure is a lot of fun - but most of all in tight corners!

Powerful engine

adjustable chassis

good wind protection

top price-performance ratio

high-quality electronics package including lean angle-dependent traction control and cornering ABS

optional Quickshifter+

real fun machine on any surface.

A little too compact for tall pilots
