Prós e contras em comparação
KTM 790 Adventure R 2019

A Adventure R vai um passo mais longe do que o modelo de série. Aqui, os rapazes da WP puderam finalmente utilizar todos os seus recursos e mostrar do que são capazes. O chassis de maior qualidade compensa as desvantagens do longo curso da suspensão na estrada, mas marca pontos fora de estrada com enormes reservas. A sobretaxa é mais do que justificada. A altura do assento provavelmente restringirá um pouco a clientela.
KTM 1050 Adventure 2015

A KTM 1050 Adventure retoma o ponto em que a 990 Adventure parou há alguns anos: Cerca de 100 cv de potência, manuseamento lúdico e tanta ou tão pouca eletrónica como a que existe atualmente. O motor é tudo menos fraco, o ABS e o controlo de tração regulam de forma segura e discreta e o comportamento é extremamente divertido, em parte devido aos pneus relativamente estreitos. E tudo isto a um preço que só é ultrapassado por alguns concorrentes na liga das grandes enduros de turismo. Por mais triste que possa ser, as duas 1190 Adventures e, acima de tudo, a emblemática 1290 Super Adventure, subiram de preço para níveis muito elevados. E é precisamente por isso que a KTM 1050 Adventure é talvez o mais coerente dos quatro modelos Adventure.
