If you can't get to a place on the 890 Adventure R, you probably can't get there at all on a touring enduro. It is the right choice when things get really rough. Long suspension travel and a high seat underline the serious visual appearance, the 890 Adventure R is no dazzler off-road. All the more surprising, then, that it also cuts a very good figure on the road.
