I have an 890. After a few 6 hour highway rides, I want the 1290 and just deal with the weight for the offroad days.
Well Smokey, the 890R is about 16.500€ und the 1290R about 23.000€ in Austria as we are the kings of taxes, not too cheap i guess *sighs...
...and we don´t even get a toaster as an incentive!
This is the fault of the green hippies. F...ing nova (co2 tax). Thats why is it so expensive here in Austria
Don’t forget the Netherlands. Also land of extra taxes for its own population 🥴
Brazil 🇧🇷:
890 adv r - 27500€
1290 adv s - 32250€
Minimum wage: 250€
Chances to get one, level:
• Easy
• Normal
• Hard
• Brazil ✔️✔️✔️
Thats so crazy
Great comparison review smokey. I'm partial to the 1290 since I have one. Still best bike I've ever had
Subbed after the E car comment. This may have been my favorite bike review ever.
Spain:
890 ADV R: 14,549 EUR
1290 SAR: 20,599 EUR
Both of them as the starting price

The that What she Said Part got me to like it.
Awesome Video 💪🏼👍🏼
Here in Singapore, the 890 Adventure R goes for SGD$34,900 whilst the 1290 Adventure R is SGD$47,500. But that doesn’t include the ~SGD$11,000 Certificate of Entitlement (COE) you have to purchase before riding it on the road. So technically, you would have to pay SGD$58,500 (~€40,000) for a 1290 SAR in Singapore. Love the vids Smokey!
That is insane dude
The best part is this COE (paper of the bike) is only valid for 10 years. Then you can renew another 10 years 😭
Have the 890 & 1290 both awesome bikes with the 890 being used for local off road riding & the 1290 for longer adventure rides throughout remote locations in Australia 🇦🇺. Great video🎉 with lots of laughs , keep up the great work mate !!
Canada Pricing - 890 R - $15,899.00 & 1290 R - $21,499.00. I thought this would be higher then most countries because Canadian money is like Monopoly money, but really I think Canadians are getting a pretty good deal here.
And Smokey - shame on you for cheating on your girl while she is right there! You really need to take her out for another night time adventure to make up to her.
I will no worries 😁👌
I love your way of post-processing :-D Well editted!! :)
good comparison 😉 i would go for the 890...still waiting to release it in india. now we have only 390 here
I have been meaning to do this comparison video since I got the new 1290. Good work. One of us is a professional TH-camr
I have been a TH-camr for 10 years but by far a professional 😅🙈
Portugal
890 Adventure R 2022 - € 15.563
1290 Super Adventure R 2022 - € 21.979
Values shown include VAT at the legal rate in force (23%), transport, ISV, Ecovalor, Ecolube and PFU. Documentation and IUC expenses are added.
perfect reflection on the green lie at 6mins - hilarious video too 🙂
Don't disrespect the 890's indicator lever - that was one of the deciding factors in my choice of this amazing machine over the competition! I like to know when I've indicated left, right, or whatever, as opposed to guessing and hoping for the best...
so the conclusion as always in 890 vs. 1290....buy both bikes. Got it!
Yep that's correct 😅🙈
I dunno, I rode an 1190, and bought an 890. The only thing I noticed about the 1190 is it was huge, heavy, long, tall, Wasnt stable at speed, 120 mph it was moving around and wobbling some. A 1290 might be better on road but otherwise, its awful big.
I have 9 older speeding tickets that sit under my helmet at home, I dont want 160 HP at all, not even a little on road or off.
A ticket for wheelies in the US? Is over 1300.00. For one wheelie. Keep it in mind, 2 points on record.
27,999 for the 2023 890r , and 36,299 for the 2022 1290 adventure R ,here in New Zealand
Germany. Atm the 1290 R goes for 18500€ w/o packs. Bought my S yesterday for 19000€ fully specced.
You can adjust the windshield of the 890 by removing the screw on the shield and put it into the top position.
In Denmark 20.000€ will buy you an 1190 😵
Depending on your riding skills, both bikes in this video are designed for completely different riding terrain. I use my 2023 KTM 350 EXC-F for difficult and technical riding and my 2017 KTM 1090 R for fast pavement rides to less technical off-road trails. From my experience, having two bikes is a minimum to cover all the different styles of riding. Great video, thanks for sharing!
Agree , there is never a perfect bike to cover everything. Can't imagine getting stuck in deep mud with a 1290 and be happy with it haha.
@@LifeofSmokey I agree, unless you bring a tow truck with a winch, a few dancing girls, and some high end champagne!
Best comparison ever….both are at the top!!
Hi, Smokey, Belarus is exposed here:
$22,356 for 890R
$30,485 for SAR 😭
A month ago I bought a 390 Adv for about $10,000 from a dealership. I think it's better to visit Poland, buy a bike there, and then return VAT taxes or buy without them if this option is possible at a dealership.
Smokey , great review.... Thanks a lot
I went with the 1290R just for the motor.
Also aren’t the 790/890 motors manufactured in China (cf Moto ?).
Great and fun review.
Great video Smokey. Wish i could afford both bikes!! In the UK the 890 is £12499 and the 1290 £16499.
What do you use to record your audio in your helmet? It sounds great. How much of that is the helmet vs mic setup?
I freakin love my 1290 SAR.
In Italy 1290 SAR with teckpac, akra, crash bar and little else €24.515; 890 AR +/- same configuration €18.336
The list price for an 890 ADV R @Colonial KTM in Milford, CT USA is $13,399 USD
Very good video job, thank you. Very informative. And what you said at 6 .00 you are totally Right.... it is amazing all the gouvernement Bullshit.
I just sold my r1200gs 2018 ( I run this one 4 years), and I m switching for the 890 Adventure R the new model 2023. So I m very happy to see you r reviewing. I m Canadian, and the new 890 R with the Tech Pact is close to 18 000$ cad.
Good choice smokey, your a funny guy, love your videos.
Cool video once again! Keep it up!
Hello from Serbia Man🙂 Your video's is funny to watch ..nice moto you have Ktm and Bmw is the best👍
Good one mate
Portugal - 890R : 15.653Euros; 1290R : 21.979 Euros. Plus legalization of documentation (+ or - 400 Euros..).
The 1290 looks like General Grievous from Star Wars - Clone Wars
😆
Brilliant video, absolutely stunning work Smokey. 👍
Greetings
As always fantastic video 🇺🇸🍾🎉🇺🇸.
So much entertainment, keep producing more videos.
Thanks a lot m8! Appreciate the feedback 😎👌❤️
In denmark the 1290r Costs 38.987,89 € and the 890r 28.232,61€
Great comparison. Heads vs hearts ultimately. I don’t need either but want the 1290!
I'm in western Canada.
890 AR is $15,899.

Thumbs up and much support from my side
Finland
890R 20733€
1290R 27493€
Includes taxes
The 1290 is a big heavy bike! And I think that’s the difference. Off road, 890 all day every day.
Compared to the big Mamma, the 890 looks like kid's bike
I moved away from Akrapovic nowadays. While I still use it for my RSV4, I will be going either Remus or Yoshimura on my 890 adv R. Far denser sound.
The stock 1290 seat is even lower than the 1290 ergo low seat. Try it
I’m in Singapore. 1290 R around 40.000€ with papers valid for 10 years… 😢
BMW GSA, 55k€ also for 10 years validity, Ducati Street fighter Lamborghini, 130k€ !!
890 Adventure £12,499.00 the 1290 Adventure £16,649.00 UK prices
Hey smokey,
In Turkey:
890 18.100€
1290sar 27.300€
Just crazy
from turkey, 890r 22.618 euro, 1290 adv r 31.144 euro
Take the slip on from the 890 and fab it to fit the 1290 is what I’d do
Nice review!

It's the only that misses in tour channel
Lithuania:

Hello, have you encountered and engine vibrations? I had the 1090, 1290 both R and now the new 2022 1290 R, I have engine vibrations from 6000 rpm up… I have not seen any reviews where this has been noted? Would appreciate and info.
Thanks
Could be yeah , but the reason I bought the KTM in the first place is to give me some engine vibrations. I think the v-twin is just a very vibrating engine overall :-)
22,000 EUR in Australia
