One Old Man Riding
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 6 เม.ย. 2021
One fifty plus rider who took thirty years off of motorcycle riding. I have been regularly buying, selling, and riding both on and off-road recently. While dual sport riding is my preference, I am spending more time on the road than I originally planned.
390 Adventure R Promo Commentary
390 Adventure R | I finished watching the promo video released alongside the bikes, and I was blown away. I hit record, and played it again, sharing my thoughts. - Frank
* I had some mic issues, or Frank configuration issues, they are minor, my apologies!
* Hey Jason, what did I do to cause my mic to not pick up as soon as I speak???? (It never did on my old OBS computer, and I duplicated my settings!)
** Now that I think about, I am now using NVIDIA noise suppression... so not identical settings.

99% of the buyers won't ever get their ass off the seat while riding. LOL
I'm glad I didn't see this before my Ibex 450 arrived today! 😛
Well, we now have the preview of your first video after you take delivery. Just add a few powerlines overhead and you are good to go.
Nicely done Frank!
Patrick!
@ Rob!!!
Videos like this are fun to watch. I see this, and think, Wow! BUT, but, but, but…. I don’t watch this video and think about how great the vine is, I think about how great the rider is. I think this same rider could do this same stuff on an awful lot of motorcycles. The rider is super impressive!! Honestly, I want to see an average rider, do average things on the bike. Take it 200 miles on pavement, then 200 miles off pavement, with some technical parts here and there. How easy is it for the average, 50 year old, with just a few years experience, to load up, and go motocamping for several days on a BDR, or something similar? Just my thoughts….
Even with out this video, I had already decided to buy tue adventure R 2025.!!🔥🔥🔥
Intitiallly I was hoping to get R. Later after a research I understood that R is more off road focused ie, it won't be good in road. S will be an ideal choice. It work best in both world. R is more expensive, doesn't mean its the best. Any KTM R ownere here? Please share your thougts. And Frank, its a mind-blowing cinematography! I dont know how many times I watched! Great music, cinematography, cool rider, and the story line. I liked it.
Nope. Not buying it. The video for the ADV is more extreme than for the Enduro…. And both of them are make believe based on a Duke and a budget price. There’s no such thing as a free lunch. ….. but I’d be happy if I was wrong, my current ‘23 KTM 1290R is insanely good.
Im going to the Black hills ride on adv fest this year. I hope they have a tester. I would love to try it.
I called the dealer already😂
Frank !!!! - This guy is Super Talented and you can tell - He has raced Motocross for sure - Way beyond an experienced off road rider..... When I was 18, 19... maybe... kinda...??? - At '63 - Oh Hell no !!!!
Dane!
Definitely, a good looking and capable bike. But I think that you can put that rider on ANY bike, and that film crew, and they'll make it look cool 🙂 (Not that this bike isn't!) Regards from Melbourne Australia!
By the time we can buy one they will be over $7,000 dollars
You look like a kid before Christmas!!!!😁
No doubt bro !!!!
Would definitely like to test ride one
I plan to ride the bike as depicted in the video. I sold my 890 Rally this past summer. I rode it everywhere with small bikes around me. Then one day realized I was tired and why was I working so hard. Yes it was time to reflect on my age (62) and my fitness level. I wasn't at A game level. Time for a smaller bike. Thankful I didn't purchase anything else yet. I want a 100lbs lighter 890. This looks like it is going to be a winner. Backhoe scene makes sense to those of us without a lot of riding area. We tend to make our own paths when we need to. Deposit is in. Waiting to see what accessories become available. Skid plate on the video looks like its an add on.
I don't get it. The KTM video has no connection whatsoever to how 99% of 390A owners will actually ride. The way you were pottering through the mud puddles in your last video is how most of us use our 390A's - that and as road bikes (sealed and otherwise). If the new 390 is good at jumps and log hopping it probably will be tall and stiffly sprung and not so good at exploring back roads
Hello Mark, I agree with you! I cannot imagine anyone riding like this on an ADV bike. It's cool to watch though! (IMHO) I think that bike is in BAD shape after this shoot! Those forks hit a LOT and I would be surprised if the rear shock held up! Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
I really don't understand why people are buying this based off of the commercial alone. I feel they are way too late with this bike considering the options out there. Typical KTM trying to claw out of bankruptcy.
looking at dropping deposits with my son(s) ...\;]
Hello Jaes, I wish they had matched the CFMoto 450 price, but it's a lot of bike, just what folks were asking for! Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
I have a serious valve issue on my 390. When I go get it fixed, I'm gonna prolly see the new R on the showroom floor. Will I get it???? S
Hello Stuart, OH MAN! As a 790 owner, I live under the specter of cam issues... but I have been fortunate with the 390. Are you forced to ride the HD??? So much comfort! My daughter is planning to ride to South Dakota with me next September. I may have try out her HD Softail for some comfort! Always a pleasure to hear from you Stuart, and I hope all is well! - Frank
Here in India they released a slightly different spec 390 adv, instead of R, we get 390 adv S version. difference is 17/21 wheel size instead of 18/21, slightly reduced suspension travel and ground clearance but not significant because of the wheel size . 835mm seat height instead of 870mm. also it's tubeless spoke wheels similar to that of 890Advs and rest are same, and X is same as international variant but will be available here along with the S variant because it's manufactured here. KTM said R will be launched here too but only later in the year
Hello, I saw the specs on your 390 Adventure today. I think you are getting the bike they should be exporting worldwide. Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding I think they will release the S version worldwide later as well, KTM has this habit of delayed release of same model in such a long interval. All coming from same factory and production and this strategy doesn't make sense especially at their financial crisis time
@@Hkmmotologs Hopefully you are correct. I own a 790 Adventure R, and its seat height is lower than the 390 Adventure R. Thats a tall bike, and above the comfort level of many riders. - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding hopefully this time they won't go for a long gap between release time.. even for a tall rider the lower seat height is better than anything above 840 is uncomfortable and impractical for any size rider. I am 6'2" and I can flat foot 390advs and GS' models 855 plus ride height but it's not ideal for a day to day city ride, let's be honest even the most adventurous rider is not going to ride it on trails all the time and 80% of the owners will be riding it 50-50 off-road - city riders at best.
I only watched a few seconds, and you're right, cool video.
Hello Bac, made me want to order! - Frank
@OneOldManRiding I wonder if it was Adam Riemann on the bike.
@@bacbladerunner Whoever it was, kudos, he made it look butter smooth! - Frank
One BIG thing that I think needed to be noted that no one is talking about, (this is per the dealer near me) how the bike is shown with handguards and that skid plate is how it comes for that price, also the engine sits about 4 inches higher in the frame than the duke 390. This is a banger of a deal and personally put down a deposit for when they come in.
Look at the road and see if its hail. Lol you dangerous😂😂😂😂😂😂
Knowing when to turn back is extremely important. The 390 is a rockstar on that sort of terrain. Stay upright :-)
Hey mate, I have the Sierra saddlebags, but I'm really looking into the Hurricane, as I like having my stove fuel bottle out of the bag, and perhaps some emergency water on the other side of the bags. But mostly because I too like new shiny things 🙂 Regards from Melbourne Australia !
2025 390 adventure R $6999 wtf . I'm sold. Also they come stock with these tires I believe.
Now that we see that the 390 Adventure R is going to cost a little more than the Enduro, the Enduro seems like maybe the better "adventure" bike. You get a 21" wheel, spoked wheels, less weight, and less cost.
I would like to see the BMW 450 and how it would be. Yes I am a bit partial to KTM but new bikes, no matter what they are or make brand new bikes first editions will have problems that need to be worked out.
2:50 Whoa! Good ride sir! Just a little muddy ;)
We have rocks and mud here Kyle. You should come take my 790 and run the NEBDR! - Frank
But did they have a bulb?
Thankfully yes! Small town rocked though! 4X Amazon. And... It was the light switch, not thr bulb! 🤣 Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
Man that looks like a fyn ride, nice open space also
Looks like a pretty cool place to ride!!!
I don't get why you're complaining... The road is great, it's a scenic route, of course there's gonna be tourist and not a 100mph speed limit. The low speed limit means you get to enjoy the view! Also, YOU WERE A TOURIST... So why you bitching about the cars, they have the right to be there also and enjoy the view. I hate people doing scenic rides on a motorcycle and complaining about low speed or the fact the route has tourists on it... That's also the reason you're there man (and probably that the cars are saying "not another motorcycle that wants to go 120 in a 45 zone)... Come on
Another powerline ride. These roads (stream beds) always look challenging. I'd be surprised if any tire made it easy. Thanks for the video Frank.
Rob!!
@@Motoramblings Hello Patrick!
So were you happy with them or feel critical?
Good job Frank!!!!! those muddy ruts are no joke!!!💪
I think me and another guy were trying to go to crazy horse
Since when has KT M made a 690 adventure? I thought it was an enduro.
Oops, that's me misspeaking. It's the 690 Enduro R. - Frank
Wait till Fb mondial release the Mud 452.
Dude created a short just to tell us he was buying a bulb😂 ! I love it
It worked! Engagement! 😉 - Frank
Okay
Bla bla bla.
I was aware of how long the video was going to be, I had to skip somethings to keep ip short! Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
Man I know that moment so well , Its amazing how you feel like you've won something if you get to your destination without having to stop & put your gear on haha, like its some kind of defeat if we pull over for 3 minutes to change haha
Indeed sir! We do not want to be the guy on the side of the road changing gear! Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
Thanks for the excellent review!
Hello, I hope I was of some help! Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
FRANK !!! - Good looking bike - and totally surprised about the price !!! - The weight too... Right in line with the DR 650 actually... Good video - Honest & informative !!!
Hello Obi-Wan! The price is at least 1K lower than I expected! Suzuki, its time for an EFI DR650! - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding Oh Frank, don’t open the can on that one 😂😂😂 Love my DR650 but there’s some modernization that needs to happen 😁
The storm I saw out there was fantastic to watch!!
Hello Patrick, it can be very impressive. I have not been IN a huge storm out there, but leaving one year, I saw a storm to the south that was just a ground to sky black wall with lightening. AWESOME. - Frank
Como bien dices a pesar de llevar el conjunto de escape por debajo fijaros en un detalle importante, la altura libre al suelo Ktm 390 enduro R es de 272mm y por tomar modelos de referencia Yamaha Ténéré 700 World Raid 250mm . Ducati desert 280mm, Aprilia tuareg 240mm , ktm 890 -263mm , Honda Africa twin 220mm etc..... pareciendo motos mas grandes tienen menos distancia libre al suelo. un saludo
I have 5000 hard miles on my 390 adv, for a vet rider its mid performance motorcycle. Needs suspension upgrades and definitely low on power. If you want an off road bike get a 250 two stroke.
Hello Tony, Good points. The only bikes I have bought that did not need suspension upgrades were my 790 Adventure R, and all my street bikes. I have owned Kawasaki and Honda Dualsports, and I needed to upgrade both. My 390 absolutely needed new springs for the front, but I was OK with the rear until I started motocamping, it could not handle that extra weight. Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
@@tonypalermo5796 Nice! Somebody said 2-stroke! Love my Beta 300RR! It’s a beast! The KTM 300s are nice also!
