Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
KTM 1090 Adventure 2018

La KTM 1090 Adventure est un grand pas en avant par rapport à son prédécesseur, la 1050 Adventure, en direction de ses grandes sœurs. Le package électronique avec les Riding Modes réglables, le contrôle de traction et l'ABS reste certes à un niveau déjà élevé, mais le moteur développe désormais 125 ch, soit environ un tiers ( !) de plus que la 1050. Ce qui est presque plus important, c'est qu'il peut désormais tirer librement jusqu'à plus de 10 000 tours et offre ainsi une plage de régime plus exploitable. Il est difficile de trouver une moto plus équilibrée dans la catégorie des grandes enduros de voyage encore à peu près abordables.
KTM 790 Adventure 2020

La KTM est à mes yeux la plus sportive de toutes les motos de voyage de classe moyenne. Celui qui est à la recherche d'une moto de tourisme qui maîtrise brutalement la vitesse sur route et off-road, trouvera ici son bonheur. Mais en même temps, le châssis et le moteur offrent suffisamment de confort et de bonnes manières pour ne pas rendre le pilote fou, même sur de longues étapes de liaison.
