KTM 390 Adventure 2021

KTM 390 Adventure 2021

The equipment and dimensions of the 390 Adventure show that KTM has by no means simply put a small, slimmed-down touring enduro on its wheels, but rather a (fully) worthy A2 licence-compatible motorbike that will give (re-)beginners just as much pleasure as those who are looking for an everyday bike and can do without performance in abundance. The sporty KTM takes you everywhere and is extremely fun to ride on curvy terrain thanks to its agility.

Less suspension travel and lower ground clearance

Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled 2017

Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled 2017

The Desert Sled is not made for tough off-road use, but for fun sessions on gravel roads and in light terrain. With its reinforced frame, large 19" front wheel and fully adjustable suspension elements, it takes into account the requirements of its new field of use. The seat height of 860 millimetres (840 millimetres with a lower seat) also suggests that off-road excursions are not completely absurd. The Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled is just the same, but without ignoring the spirit of lifestyle. Fortunately, the headlight grille of the new Scrambler is homologated, as are the high mudguards.
