Same for me. looking for solution.

Very nice detailed comparison of the three products, making this review quite helpful.

thanks for your review! I'm 72 and have found the tool very helpful to clear my sidewalk and porch with ease.

Hey thanks, I'm new to the bike this month and wanted to change the break in oil and your video was a quick help.

good video, thank! you. When did you changed your oil? Im at 6200km, and thinking about changing oil before the official recommendation which is around 12.000km i think. And did you put in the full 2.8L?

On my KTM890 Adventure Rally 2024, I have installed first Rottweiler air filter and I had a feeling like it is slightly chocking while accelerating, so I was disappointed. But after some time I got a decat pipe and after installation it tuned together perfectly. So it looks like that less resistant intake needed less resistant exhaust th-cam.com/video/FKtsusZvdJ4/w-d-xo.html

You use Step 1 and 3 or* Step 1 and 2, not both. Stage 1: Initial sharpening. Set the base sharpness and only used when dull beyond what stages 2 or 3 can fix. Use this until you can feel a bur when sliding a finger from the flat of the knife blade down toward the sharpened edge. You should feel this bur along the full length of the blade. Stage 2: honing steal for microserrations (if you want them). pretty much breaks off the bur created in Stage 1 creating a "micro-serrated knife". Skip if this isn't what you want, but if it is, do it and stop here (don't do stage 3). By the way, the knob at stage 2 is so you can turn it occasionally to expose a fresh face to your knife. Stage 3: Polishing stage,. Used if you don't want microserrations, but want a more polished sharp edge (more like a razor and less like a saw). Hope that helps

Baked it at 400* in the oven for 13 mins to reflow solder Works great again! Likely what the eBay sellers are doing with cores

Friend the stereotype of my Ford scape if you connect to Bluetooth but you don't hear anything and the FM and AM radio don't play you think it's a fucible because at the same time I stop working the censors of reverse or car detection you can help me friend thanks

Per caso sei italiano ?🤣

Has this got oil feed problems?

Wash out all those camshaft shavings before they get into the oil pump

I have 890 R 2021 11000 klm changed the cat out in the first week, but I did fit an LM Device chip, wings exhaust, Rottweiler air in take, and 15 tooth front sprocket, lower gearing helps stop clutch ware in the bush, had no cold start problems, no other problems at all, 3000 klm oil changers for my bike : its the best bike for me in the bush, I don't try to hard enduro the bike its not a 300, I believe clutch ware mixing through the oil -and dust getting in the standard air box is the reason cam failures.

always refreshing how KTM stands by you & your bike when things go wrong … 🤣😂

Excellent video. Thank you.

Great review, very thorough look at a nice product. Thank you!

Best looking bike on the market

I have the 2023 KTM 890 adventure S model. The only thing difference is the suspension and the placement of the front fender. Within 600 miles the countershaft seal failed.(Not due to an overtime chain).. KTM California replaced it. At 800 miles the front tire went flat twice. Replaced by KTM. At 900 miles my TFT screen went completely black. Came back to life the following day. The bike now has 2800 miles on it starts like crap usually takes four or five times to get the bike started. Sounds like a bunch of rocks in the motor, if the bike starts up, it’s running on one cylinder until it starts up, and has warmed up then the rear cylinder kicks in. Then the bike runs great the rest of the day. At 64 I have owned too many bikes to remember, Japanese, Harley, Davidson’s, etc. none of those bikes ever had starting issues, or runability issues like this brand new KTM. If I could do it all over again I never would’ve bought this KTM motorcycle. Constantly leaves me worried about being stranded somewhere out in the wilderness, because the damn thing doesn’t want to start in the morning. I would not Recommend KTM to anybody I would tell them if they want reliability by another brand of motorcycle. Good thing I bought four year warranty on top of the regular warranty. PS I’ve done all the TH-cam videos, all the tricks to starting this bike… but nothing is worked… very embarrassing when you ride with your buddies, their bike start on first start, but Your bike takes four or five tries to start. Enough said don’t buy KTM! As far as the mechanics They all work on KTM dirt bikes, but when it comes to these bigger bikes, they don’t have a clue actually to what’s going on.😡😡

Many Thanks for very detailed video.

Hi, what kind of helmet is that?

Got the 2022 manual ATAS with quick shifter and fitted Ohlins rear. Its a great bike but damn that seat is uncomfortable. Shortly going to fit Rox bar risers and get the seat sorted out then it should be perfect. Lovely bike, you won’t be disappointed.

Awesome!!!

Lovely looking bike. I say without a trace of sarcasm: if you were only riding your 890R on the street (edit: and ever riding it under 3500 rpm), no reason to have one. This bike will like be much more enjoyable for you.

Fantastic Italian accent 👌

Nice bike you going to enjoy this

Congratulations on your new machine. i have a 2022 model and i would say that you have the best bike on the market and when you get on to the dct, it is fantastic.

Good choice for more quality

Beautiful bike. But the dct.....whhyyyyyy noo whhhyy????

KTM classy operation erh?

Ще є така проблема протікає Сальник передньої зірочки Переднє колесо так само спускала под качав і сама пройшла

Nice content bro! Just bought one last week and i make my own service as well after warranty services. Nice rides 😉💪

The countershaft seal failed because your chain was tighten improperly (too tight). The chain tightness check on this model of KTM is very "complicated" and most dealers including my own KTM authorized mechanic tightened the chain waaaaaay to much and if you offroad it will tension the countershaft which digs trough the seal and the seal will eventually fail. Your seal will also fail again if the chain is too tight. If you only do road riding it might not as you rarely compress the back suspension soo much that the countershaft flexes, but if you do offroad it will 100% fail again if the chain in not set as specified in the KTM manual. The procedure is the following 1. Leave the bike under its own weight by putting it on a track stand (the ones that lift the back wheel by the swingarm), or by resting the handlebars on a wall so the bike doesn't tip (this might make it harder to adjust the tensioning screws. You can also use the center stand but then you need to leave a bit more chain slack than recommended when adjusting the slack, as on the center stand the chain is at its maximum loosenes since the swingarm is full extended relative to the countershaft. 2. Measure the initial chain slack by making sure the chain is tight on the upper part (put it in gear and reverse the bike a few mm which should make the upper part tight). The measurement must be done on the lower part of the swingarm by pressing on the chain upwards towards the swingarm approximately 1 inch after the lower plastic chain guide ends. The distance between the chain you are pressing on and the swingarm inside face (the swingarm has a lip to it towards you, the chain must not be measured against the lip that is facing you but against the inside face that is parallel to the ground). The measurement should be between 2 and 5 mm, where 2 mm means the chain is at its slacker setting, while 5 mm is the tightest the chain should be. If you measure more than 5 mm, then your countershaft seal will eventually fail if you keep riding like that. 3. if you need to adjust, loosen your rear nut an use the 2 swingarm adjusters to tighten or loosen the chain as needed, then repeat the measurement until between 2 and 5 mm. I make a habbit to check after my KTM authorized mechanic and the first time I had the bike for my 15k service I noticed my chain was really tight (12 mm gap). I asked him why he did it like that and he said because the chain slaps otherwise. Well, yes the chain will occasionally slap if at low revs high torque situations, but that happens on any offroad orientated bike, and I rather have a bit of slap from time to time than a countershaft seal or even countershaft being irreversibly damaged. Use this information as you want, but I think it will save you a lot of trouble if you do it as the manual recommends.

Is it because bike manufacturers china?

Cams fail on this platform 790/890

HI, i have the same KTM 890 adventure r 2023 with mivv speed edge aftermarket exhaust. I couldnt decat because of EU Laws, but it sounds and feels now, like it should have from beginning. The best thing i did beside exhaust, was to replace the cam chain tensioner with Dirty Tricks .No more rattling sounds, feels more healthy. greetings from Germany.

I was literally looking at an 890 adventure yesterday. I think i should stay away

Great video man!

Sorry to hear that this is happening to you as well. I would first check that the front tires are from the same manufacturer and same exact model (to avoid discrepancies in the pattern). Then, I would check for tire pressure, and for tire balance. I always bring my cars to discount tires and they are really great. They will check the balance for you. This last check should reveal imperfections/damages to the tire and/or to the rim. If all the above is good, I would go for an alignment. I am not sure how old your Volvo is, maybe as a last resort I would check bearings(?). Please let us know as soon as you know what is going on, in this way we can help someone else in the same situation!

I run the Arrow decat with a Wings exhaust, no need for remap, no issues 23 KTM 890 Adv R.. I have a couple of minor issues but fixed them myself. I dont trust the dealer! I had oil weeping from the valve cover and found that KTM did NOT apply the RTV as shown in their repair manual. Once I followed the manual and applied the RTV accordingly no leaks at all. Second was the infamous leak from the radiator hose. Upon inspection, I found the clamps were loose. I went ahead and proactively change to Samco hoses and clamps, no more issues. It's unfortunate that KTM will not fix these issues. In my experience they are NOT hard to address and just require some process improvement/tools and quality checks. In my mind these issues are low hanging fruit (easy to fix) and in doing so KTM will help improve their image. Not sure why they refuse to address it or it seems that way... Thanks for sharing your story.. I love my bike too ...Cheers

I love my T7, but i want a 890 R . .but i dont want the "problems" is can give me =/

I have a ‘23 890 adventure r. Mine runs fine with a decat and aftermarket muffler. Rottweiler performance says it’s ok without any fueling changes.

Vendila fidati

Un disastro, vendila.

Now I’m scared to buy KTM

This maybe besides the point but you should give us a video on how you clean your bike. That KTM looks clean!

I have the exact same spec 2023 G82 and it’s been 18 months since I bought it. I have 4000 miles so far. Still love it and would like to put more miles on it.

Having same problem. Thanks for sharing your experience, next step is to rotate the tyres and see if same happens for me. I have also been Volvo who have been useless.

Good to hear! I have the 790 adventure S and it's a great bike.

I tried the reset previously and no luck but something about just looking at the fuses made my sound start working again.. thank you!
