KTM 1050 Adventure 2016

KTM 1050 Adventure 2016

In my opinion, the KTM 1050 Adventure picks up where the 990 Adventure left off a few years ago: Around 100 hp of power, playful handling and as much or as little electronics as is currently state-of-the-art. The engine is anything but weak, ABS and traction control regulate safely and inconspicuously and the handling is extremely fun-oriented, partly because of the relatively narrow tyres. And all this at a price that is only undercut by a few competitors in the league of big touring enduros. Sad as it may be, the two 1190 Adventures and, above all, the flagship 1290 Super Adventure, have soared in price to very high levels. And that is precisely why the KTM 1050 Adventure is perhaps the most coherent of the four Adventure models.

Powerful, refined engine

disengageable ABS

adjustable traction control

agile handling

adjustable ergonomics

prestigious looks similar to the big sisters

height-adjustable windshield

low weight

Rev limiter kicks in at 8500 revs

chassis a little too soft for off-road use

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
