KTM 1190 Adventure 2015

KTM 1190 Adventure 2015

The KTM 1190 Adventure is an absolute all-rounder, there is no demand that it does not fulfil: It combines sport, touring, mountain passes and off-road riding. With hardly any other "all-rounder" motorbike is it so fast - even on the racetrack the 1190 Adventure cuts a fine figure with its 150 hp. An unbeatable climber, especially on narrow mountain roads, but also a pleasant companion on the daily ride to work. Also included is a comprehensive electronics package with adjustable power modes, traction control and even a lean angle ABS is on board.

Combines sport with comfort

buttery smooth gearbox

powerful and well controllable engine

excellent seating position

handy chassis

sophisticated electronics

lean angle ABS

Engine jerks a little below 3000 revs

unlike its predecessor, it no longer looks quite so independent

smooth gliding is not its strong point

KTM 1190 RC8 R 2009

KTM 1190 RC8 R 2009

Not only in the rain do you enjoy the virtues; the great seating position and the high riding comfort - apart from the vibrations. But here the new R became a little quieter, the engineers worked meticulously on the crankshaft and the RC8 R now tingles much less in the hands.

Optimal chassis

great braking

improved shiftability

positive ergonomics

powerful engine

direct and agile.

Brake dosing

poor splash protection on rear wheel

poor stability during setup.
