Joachim Sauer, KTM Product Manager Travel: “With the development of the new KTM 890 ADVENTURE. We hit all our marks by offering an upgraded machine for both road and gravel riding.
With the new engine, we worked a lot on optimizing the overall performance and feel while out riding.
The result is a significant improvement in the bike’s rideability, better stability, less gear shifting and added comfort for the long days on the saddle.
With the KTM 890 ADVENTURE, we wanted a KTM that sets the benchmark through its performance the tarmac while being able to veer offroad and keep the same high standards. As a real KTM ADVENTURE, this is an excellent machine to adventure everywhere.”
