KTM 1290 Super Adventure R 2023

KTM 1290 Super Adventure R 2023

The R variant of the 1290 Super Adventure is one of the most luxurious options for long tours that don't end on paved roads. Plenty of power is available at all times and the rally look immediately evokes wanderlust. The WP suspension can cope with almost any conceivable surface, but it has to be adjusted manually and you also have to do without the distance cruise control.

Very sporty, but also cultivated V2 power plant

extremely playful handling despite high weight

driving-friendly seating position

good brakes including cornering ABS

comprehensive electronics package

clear, well-structured instruments with huge 7-inch display.

Gearshift assistant at extra cost

higher price than for the S despite fewer features

Husqvarna Norden 901 2023

Husqvarna Norden 901 2023

On the one hand, the Husqvarna Norden 901 is a very suitable motorbike for travelling with its lavish standard equipment, but on the other hand it does not shy away from adventures with its long suspension travel, lively engine and active ergonomics. The low centre of gravity is ingenious thanks to the low-slung fuel tank, which makes life easy on and off the paved roads.

Great engine with high practicality

Great engine response

Linear rev band

Hardly any vibration in the saddle

High-quality electronics package

High level of ride comfort

Pleasantly tuned chassis

Accessible but at the same time exciting character

good wind and weather protection

Tough

Reliable even on long tours

Unpleasant heat development in the calf area at low speeds

unsteady engine running after cold start

Low flywheel mass, always dies off

Wide seat makes it quite a high bike even with long legs.
