KTM 790 Adventure R 2019

The Adventure R goes one step further than the standard model. Here, the WP guys were finally able to draw on their full resources and show what they can do. The higher-quality chassis compensates for the disadvantages of the long suspension travel on the road, but scores points off-road with massive reserves. The surcharge is more than justified. The seat height will probably restrict the clientele somewhat.

High chassis quality ensures a wide range of use

Engine offers great running culture, rich torque and perfectly dimensioned power

Easy-to-read display

Practical rally electronics package

Despite radical chassis also stable, manoeuvrable and suitable for everyday use on the road

Quickshifter not standard

indicator switch a little fiddly

seat a little more uncomfortable on long tours than on standard model

Yamaha's sporty all-purpose weapon has been further improved. It is the perfect bike for all those for whom the naked MT-09 is too spartanly designed for sporty country road riding. Thanks to the longer swingarm and better aerodynamics, the 2018 model also largely eliminates the high-speed problems that its predecessor had to contend with. The premium version in the form of the Tracer 900 GT goes one better and can also convince with great comfort features.

Top chassis
