KTM 390 Adventure R 2026

KTM 390 Adventure R 2026

The 390 Adventure has never been so uncompromisingly trimmed for off-road use. With powerful travel, modern electronics and less than 180 kg, the 390 Adventure R could be the long sought-after, all-rounder among touring enduros. It can easily conquer motorway stages, be chased through twisties or transmitted over hill and dale. But there is a potential catch: the engine taken from the 390 Duke is also very hungry for revs in the Adventure R. This results in constant shifting and hardly any spontaneous propulsion. This can be particularly annoying in enduro bike mode. So whether the KTM 390 Adventure R can fulfil long-standing desires remains a matter of taste.

Top ergonomics for both standing and seated riding

Adjustable suspension with plenty of reserves

State-of-the-art electronics

Good wind protection

Versatile use

Serious enduro bike tyres

Low weight

Engine needs a lot of revs for superior propulsion

engine tends to stall

brakes not very stable

focus on sportiness reduces comfort (e.g. rather hard seat)

Yamaha Tenere 700 2023

Yamaha Tenere 700 2023

The Yamaha Tenere 700 is an adventure bike that performs brilliantly, especially in the second part of its category. The Japanese bike is a force off-road. But it also functions satisfactorily as a touring vehicle. The chassis is comfortable enough, the wind protection is there. The seat is a little too spartan, but the engine is ideally suited for long journeys. The Tenere offers sufficient space and power for two, and the chassis also has enough reserves for the additional load. However, the brakes are overtaxed by the additional weight in some riding situations. However, as long as you don't leave the cosy touring mode, the Yamaha Tenere 700 also makes two people happy.

Motor very comfortable in continuous operation

relaxed riding position

Wind protection available

Suspension sufficiently comfortable

Engine with sufficient power even with two riders

Enough space for average pillion rider

No "ABS-OFF" button available any more

Annoying menu operation

Slightly jerky throttle response

Brake overtaxed in some situations with two riders

Seat uncomfortable in the long run
