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.

Aprilia's SX 125 is a very sporty supermoto that does justice to Aprilia's long 125cc history. Its 15 hp single-cylinder inspires with its balanced character with high suitability for everyday use, but at the same time provides a lot of fun under the helmet. The biggest advantage it has over the competition is its ABS system, which only acts on the front wheel and was installed instead of a CBS system. This makes it possible to conjure up beautiful drifts on the asphalt, as befits a true supermoto.

pleasant engine characteristics

high-quality appearance

sporty chassis

ABS instead of CBS
