Pros and Cons in comparison

Aprilia Tuareg 660 Rally 2025

The Aprilia Tuareg Rally proves that even an adventure bike with 660 cubic centimetres can be a lot of fun in today's world. It combines the best of both worlds - the power and character of a real rally bike with the comfort of an adventure bike. Off-road, it provides an enormous amount of feedback and quickly inspires confidence. On the road, it scores points with its quickshifter, cruise control and travel accessories direct from Aprilias.

Revised engine mapping with poisonous throttle response

Very stable off-road handling

Amazing sound for Euro 5+

Cruise control included

Narrower rims for proper enduro tyres

Easy operation of the Advanced Rider Assistance Systems

Stand comes to heel when standing

Linear suspension reduces comfort on the road

Frequent shifting necessary for constant power

Splash guard manageable

KTM 790 Adventure R 2020

The Adventure R goes one step further than the standard model. Here, the WP guys were finally allowed 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
