2021 KTM 1290 Super Adventure S First Ride Review
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ส.ค. 2024
- My first ride of the 2021 KTM Super Adventure S is certainly one I'll remember. This 160 bhp 138 Nm maniac grabbed me by the shoulders (balls) and took me on a hell of a ride - this bike is an incredible road bike, in the sense that even at legal'ish speeds, the new 2021 KTM Super Adventure S brings new levels of engagement, performance and just plain FUN to the game!
Many will ask who would win between the KTM 1290 Super Adventure S 2021 Vs BMW R1250GS, and after this first ride I know who my own money is on. I've got the bike for a few weeks so will be putting on the miles to get as much experience with the new 1290 KTM Super Adventure S as I can, before I make my final decision in the next vid.
Hope you enjoy the vid folks, keep SUBSCRIBING, keep SHARING, keep LIKING, and keep letting me know what you think in the COMMENTS section below!

BEST review ever!!! Watching you smile brushes away any doubt about this brutal KTM. What a bike!!!!!
The laughing sums it all up brother enough said.:))
That can at the end !!!!!! 😂😂😂😂 absolute gold 👏👏 definitely time to trade in the s1000xr in for this beast !
After a year and a half of ownership of the previous Gen 1290 R, I have the exact same reaction every single time rolling into it in 2nd and 3rd.
As an F 750 GS rider who wants to upgrade to a 1200+ next year, this bike is on my radar. Thank you!
Another excellent review Bruce, I love KTMs, they are right for someone progressing from a sports bike to an adventure bike without loosing out on performance as many of the other Adv bikes leave you wanting for, combined with a very capable adv bike in its own right.
When a bike makes you giggle that much, you know it makes sense... 😉 Definitely what biking is all about! Cracking first ride review, the can at the end had me chuckling 😆
When I bought my Multi in 2015, the level of tech on the bike and performance was amazing, since then Ducati, KTM and BMW just keep raising the bar! I think we can tell from the giggling you enjoyed yourself 😂👍
Gripping the tube, sir. Banging it up, sir... oooo suits you!!
For me this is the best all around Bike. Will be picking one up in the states next year.
They should just reintroduce the white color is , like the old SAT
You’ve got the same giggle I had when I got my 1290, couldn’t agree more on your points between the GS and 1290, The KTM just takes you back to more those days of blasting around on your sportsbike and tickling your danglies but with the comfort of a GS.
Aye, this new ‘anti-dive’ could be a game changer - makes it handle very similarly to the GS, but it has that beautiful KTM engine and ‘feel’ to it
@@teapotone The "old" one also has anti-dive in non-sport modes. I'm sure it's even better on this new one though and of course can be turned on/off in any mode, including sport. :)
Test rode the ktm sas last weekend, so impressed, think it's the best bike I have ever ridden.
Think it's the bike I have been looking for, I used to have a rc8, loved the engine but the fuelling was not ideal.
The new adventure has the brilliant v twin engine with excellent handling.
Makes my multistrada feel like a tractor.
Just trying to justify the expense.
Be good to see bruce on something lively like the supa adventure.
I love listening to you ride this bike. That LC8 engine makes me giggle the same way. Great first ride review!
Great looking bike.
Really good fun too, by the looks of it.
Clever camera positioning Bruce 🤔😁👍
I am so glad you laughed as much as I did, I thought it was just me, if you feel to low Bruce lift the seat up.
I pick mine up tomorrow (Saturday) 🤪
It’s at the highest point apparently bud
The KTM effect, accept no substitute ... now where is their electric one, the torque on that will be even more insane.
I'm in awe of that opening edit!! Nice one. Enjoyed the review, too.
Thanks bud, much appreciated 👍
Spot on review again Bruce - no faffing, no arty farty pictures a proper bikers review - so it looks like between the Gt the Duke R and the Adventure this trio have the maximum ear to ear smiles and giggles covered!! 👌🏁😎
🤣🤣🤣🤣 love the cup over the digit on the speedo, your onto a winner ❤️ again what a class video buddy.
Just part ex-ing my 2017 Super Adventure for the 2021 Super Duke R. Can honestly say the Super Adventure has been an absolute rapid hoot - loved it. Fantastic bike. Looking forward to even more fun with the Duke
Looking forward to seeing the long term review😀.
love the out takes at the end, you need more of that 🤣 great first review. 👍
Thanks Jon, I do fairly regularly put them in right at the end 👍
@@teapotone clearly im turning off too early 🤣🤣🤣 blushing now!
I rode a 2020 KTM 1290 R for the first time last weekend. It was so fast it made me giggle and laugh out loud every time I romped on it. Just scary happy power, probably the fastest bike I've ever ridden.
Looks like a really fun bike Bruce. I think we need a new review system consisting of how many giggles/5 :) KTM's biggest mistake was not letting Charlie and Ewan take them round the world.
100%👍
Well, I started out in 2019 wanting a 1290 Adventure S then I wanted a lighter ride and wanted the 890 Adventure R then I fell in love with the Triumph Scrambler 1200XE Steve Mcqueen edition but now I want the 2021 KTM Adventure S thanks to YOU. I almost would go for the "R" but the "S" better suits the majority of the riding I will do if I go serious off-road then I have my Husquavsarna 701. Thank you love the countryside you ride through. I ride similar not as green but pretty, DeLuz California.
I currently have a 1290 SDR and I think it’s often said that KTM’s are amazing to ride but horrible to own and to a certain extent I’d agree with that...you always come back from a ride with a massive grin on your face only to put the bike away and next time you get ready to go out it won’t start 🤷♂️ some points of the bike I have are are also pretty budget, I’ve never seen a chain rust so fast in years of riding and the SDR forums have regular posts from people needing advice about ongoing issues....such a shame as the riding experience is phenomenal. Just hope KTM can up their game on the reliability side because it’s not much fun at a biker cafe car park when you walk back to your bike and you’re praying that it’ll start 🙏🏻 Great content as always Bruce, enjoy the Super Adventure 👍
Thanks bud,
Aye the reliability and dealer network side are what stop me jumping ship to the KtM’s - they are definitely my kind of bike in terms of ridability and fun factor
Your enthusiasm for this bike is all in the giggles Bruce.
And at that price it may well steal a lot of customers away from the GS.
Can’t wait to see more, did I really hear you say you were going to take it off road, nah I must of imagined it.
👍👍👍
As far as KTM reliability goes, my 790 Duke I bought used with 1,100 mi last September has it's first 9,300 mi service due a couple weeks. Apart from a couple phantom engine lights that turned off before I could pull codes and the quickshifter being iffy sometimes if you're on the beans, it's been a fantastic bike so far. I won't be selling it anytime soon but I HAVE to buy this new 1290 SAS. Looks like an incredible bike! Great review btw!
Great vid Bruce. I know you’re not overly keen on doing bike review after bike review but when you get a bike like this KTM you do seem to really enjoy your ‘Job’. Lucky lad. 😊😊👍🏻
Another great video @13:13 your sat behind my Pals truck lol
Great review Bruce I can just imagine the grin under that helmet. I want one 😃
Iv been waiting for your review of this bike. 👍
I ride a 1250GS , and I took the new KTM Adventure out for a test ride last Tuesday. What a bike, if I was in a position to do it now I would have traded my GS in,unfortunately the KTM will have to wait. I can definitely see myself owning the new Adventure S next year.
Great video Bruce the laughter when you open the throttle 😆🤣.
I like the new helmet Bruce, very nice 👍
Thanks bud, aye it’s a nice lid eh - wonder what it looks like in orange and black?? 🤔 😉
🤣 Perfect, it will suit your future bike.
Great video, you definitely sound like your enjoying the KTM
Great review! The shear joy you have made my day, also love the outtakes. I just got my first 1250 GS, my friend just got his first KTM 1290 - I can't wait to try his out post lockdown! Cheers from 🇨🇦 -------- LYL!
Cheers mate for the fast reply, stay safe.
I just bought a new 2020 KTM Super Adventure S, the 2021's are not here in the USA yet, great bike, thanks for your review Bruce :)
My pleasure Richard, glad you enjoyed it 👍
How funny to see Tewinbury Farm at the end of the video.
We live 10 minutes away from there 👍
Great review!
I'm looking more and more at these SAR. I currently ride a 1250gsa but I'm not at the stereotypical age (33). Waiting to see what the new r1300gsa turns out like and will make a decision on my next bike from there.
I am 100% compelled to comment on this vid Bruce - I’ve just watched this ( again) I’m going to get one !!! 😎- the point of writing is to tell u that in my opinion this is one of ur very best - the reason is 2 fold - 1. The next best thing to getting my own bike out is watching this vid - I feel I’m on the bike with u -2. I was honestly grinning and laughing along with you- so funny every time u twisted the throttle and came out with a different expression - I was really properly entertained by this vid. You at ur very best. Rode the multi v4 last week - but prefer the KTM - if you haven’t watched urself in this one for a while go back and have a re watch - might remind you of why u do what you do - 10/10 mate - ride safe mister - still enjoying the channel 4 years on..”🥃”..
Mate thank you very, very much for saying this, greatly appreciated.
Hope you’re doing well 👍
@@teapotone ur welcome at my gaff anytime big man - Gleddoch Langbank - give it a google image - 5 mins from Erskine bridge - but u will think ur in the highlands - BTW - ever done the Kintyre 66 - ferry from Gourock to Dunoon- then portavadie to Tarbert - and ur there - cracking day out .., ( Campbeltown and Whisky) - “🥃”.. all good this end thanks…
Wow man that place looks stunning!!!
Aye it’s beautiful riding around there eh 👍
I want to believe this new KTM is reliable, because if it is it’ll clean up! What a fun machine I love it, I want one.........Cracking review Bruce 👍
Thanks bud
If it helps I have had no issues with my previous generation 1290 SAS - new one on the way - can't wait!
@@brucecutts8841 Thanks! 👍
Fwiw, as well as currently owning a R1200 GSA and RE 500 Classic, I've also got a KTM 1190 Adv 'R' (fully tricked out with Rottweiler intake system, Tuned Velocity Stacks, Wings Exhaust, Scotts Steering Damper, et al) and that KTM is like a guided missile in comparison to the GSA. Enormous torque and hooligan fast, plus (as I've got the 'R' version) it's fabulous off-road - which is just as well as I live in West Africa, a place with a lot of red-dirt-road and nothing beats standing up on the pegs, whilst hooning down mile-after-mile of deserted African dirt road, at totally illegal speeds.
Interestingly, reliability wise, I've had very few issues with the KTM and in fact it's been my GSA that's given me the most headaches & heartache.
That’s interesting to hear Tony, cheers bud 👍
Great first ride vid Bruce..Nice to see you riding through my “ Manor “ on you way back from Silverstone...nice demo of the adaptive cruise control too 👍🏻😁
If the reliability proves to be ok this could well be my next bike. I am also a 1250 GSA owner and nearly bought the 2019 SAS last time. I will be following your reviews with interest.
Love the review, and the laugh while riding, is why we ride 👍
Bloody hell Bruce this is enough to make me ditch the Harley! Look forward to the future vids on it. Cheers Warren (mototrev)
Ha Ha, mate it’s a cracking bike
First time viewer to your channel. Love your enthusiasm. Looking forward to the full review.
Cheers Simon, welcome to the channel bud 👍
A hugely impressive machine.
I will need to see a lot of provenance in relation to reliability before ktm is on my radar though.
Your enthusiasm is infectious.
Happy travels
My 2017 has been amazing in that respect, 30k km of all sorts of riding (including sideways action in the snow), knocked over (wind when parked, the crash bars are brilliant and relatively cheap, plus barely a mark) and massively better than my 2013 MTS1200 and 2009 K1300S. Amazing machines.
@@eubikedude good to know. When I see ktm matching Japanese reliability I'm in. But 790/890 is more than enough for me. And I'd like a lot less electronics. 790 manageability with 700 tenere simplicity.
Winner.
Happy travels
Really enjoy your excitement :) I hope Mrs Teapot was happy to get a smiling Mr Teapot back home again ! :)
Ha Ha yeah she knew straight away that I enjoy this bike! 😂👍
Great review! I'm setting out to buy one tomorrow. Cheers!
There's prepping mine at the dealer now. I expect a call in the next few days.
Great review Bruce! I need to take a test ride on one of these, never ridden a KTM before due to the ‘past’ comfort and reliability issues so just didn’t consider one, however......!!
Nice review, thank you mate! Looks like a GS killer and a quality machine!
Crackin video again. Has made me think about getting one. Sounds like a lot of bike for the price. Can't wait for the next video on the KTM.
Thanks bud 👍
I am getting the one not sure about the S or R yet still thinking
This thing is cheaper for me to insure than my 890 Duke R. But not by much!
Best review ever!!! thx dude!
Hi I think you need to get one I love to hear you laughing very funny have fun
Great review as always, thanks. I await further installments and my lottery numbers with considerable interest. The BMW demo I took out last year is amazing but I think KTM have just thrown the GS's pint in its face.
BMW: We have the ultimate riding machine, KTM: Hold my stein. ;)
Love this review very entertaining sir wow where would I find the money seed my car
Intriguing - not yet available here in the colonies but very interested in your long-term review.
Camera vans can get bikes heading towards them now, no idea how tf, but it happened to me a couple of months ago.
Enjoy your 160 bhp.
Sounds like a special bike indeed. IMO the look of it doesn’t do “it” for me. And I can’t quite get past KTMs past reliability issues. Oh well to each their own. Looking forward to seeing your future vids on this one. 👍🏼
Take a look in person, even the last version looks amazing in person versus photos - a bit like Teslas. ;)
I’ve had issues with Aprilia & Ducati, not KTMs. My 2018 1290 SAS has been flawless. Great as the bike is with engine, suspension, best feature is lights period.
Aye Aprilia are my worst manufacturer experience BY FAR too - utterly horrendous, to the extent I probably wouldn’t ever buy one again, despite me utterly loving the Tuono
I got the 2021R - Everything is perfect with it except…
The turn signal button. It’s simply not good.
That being the only negative sais it all.
Best bike I ever ridden!
Wenn noch Garantie, dann den Blinkerschalter von der 2023 anbauen lassen und alles ist gut! 😊
On my 2014 1190 Adv, I set the damping to Sport and there is almost no brake dive. Because that is something I got used to from my prev 2 BMWs, an LT and a GSA. Surprised to see others don't know about such a simple setting that's been there for like 8 years.
Nice video and nice bike. Got a 17 plate superduke GT and love it, was going to wait until the new GT came out however this seems tempting, see what your thoughts are in your next video
👍 Great review of a cool bike
I know jack about cinematography, but it looks like there is a improvement in the quality of your videos
Thanks Tic, I’m trying bud 😉👍
Loved this review. Thats what a bikes all about making you feel good and giggle like a school boy who knows he's in trouble but can't help but laugh 😆🤣
Loving the level of production Bruce! She seems like a great bike, if only I was confident in KTM's reliability, I'd deffo get one over the GS.
Thanks bud, been making a few wee changes to how I film and edit, so it’s great to know it’s making a difference 👍
Aye it’s the dealer network that really stops me pulling the pin and getting one over the BMW too
@@teapotone I can see! Love the angles, grading, pacing - bravo!
🙏👍
Adaptive would actually make cruise on a bike useful around here. Most drivers can't maintain speed so if I use cruise on my older GS I'm constantly having to adjust the speed.
Just what the doctor ordered 😁, good to hear you having a ball Bruce😉😇
Thanks bud 👍
I have just got my financial ducks in the same pen, not in a row yet but getting there and you show me this big, expensive and wonderful machine with all the gadgets and performance I could wish for, which I really, really want... Great review Bruce!
I'm off to tinker with my old Sprint ST 1050, maybe you could borrow one of those for your budget bike reviews series?
I’ll see if I can get hold of one bud 👍
So fast....so sophisticated.....so perfect! Please test Kawasaki 1000sx! Thank you!
"It's seen some things"! 🤣🤣🤣
Not surprised you liked this one, I actually had my money on the previous model being your next bike before you revealed the GS. Gonna be real interesting to see how you feel giving this one back at the end of the test.
I’m looking forward to getting back on my GS actually, but to see how it compares to this bike as it really is awesome fun to ride.
The KTM has me grinning and wanted to ride it again every time I get off it. I’m hoping the Gs does the same... otherwise.... 😬👍😉
Looks like I might be trying one these when I finish with the XR , Was thinking of a GS
Personally I think the GS is still a fantastic bike, it’ll keep up with the KTM - it won’t beat it in acceleration or top speed, but you’ll keep hold of it.
I think the GS is more comfortable, and it’s a more relaxed ride, with practically zero maintenance required outside service intervals.
However the KTM is a more engaged ride, it’s definitely more fun
When I’m done with the XR I think I’m going KTM.. What the hell is a gen 3 GT going to be like? 👌
That matey, is the question.
Based on spy photos--much like the 2021 Superduke R but GT-ized. That will be the bike for me. No need for a 19" wheel. never gonna see gravel even--but need to carry the wife.
"TH-cam Gods", no apostrophe. ;) Lovely bike! :)
Great vid Bruce ....... You will have points very quickly on this ..... but what a bike lol
I recently road tested a ktm 1290 super adventure s and it was like riding a two wheeled tractor. So much vibration. The pegs were set quite a way back and even with the seat on the highest position, it seemed quite low as I had my feet flat on the ground. Surprisingly bad ride considering how many people rave about it. It almost felt like I was riding on the wheel rims. It may have been that particular bike, so am going to try again and compare it with the HD America and the Triumph Tiger 1200.
Doesn’t sound right at all Martyn, I wonder if that bike was lowered and what settings it was in?
The SA S is a fantastic machine, personally I was really considering a swap from the GS and it was only the electronics issues that held me back really.
Great review Bruce! Good bike isn't it 👍
Cheers Chops! Aye it’s pretty special, certainly got me wondering if it’s better overall than the GS now too
Hey bruce, what iphone do you have? I loved the ultimate addons case with my 10xs but worried about the camera on the 11pro max in the case.
I'm looking at a GS just now and considered this. I want the GS suspension and I don't want a chain so I guess it's decision made.
you forgot to mention that your BMW will be on the road and not back in the dealerships getting fixed for silly quality issues like a KTM will.
@@tonebonetones My GS was back in to BMW for rusting sub frame, centre stand and side stand and final drive fimnish issues - they don't like salt!
Great job on the video. I'm torn between the GS and the KTM
Me too 😬😉👍
Shrek is that you? 😂
That’ll do donkey, that’ll do
I love the look & sound of this bike. ACC is good, I had ACC in my 2014 VW golf but prefer classic cruise as the acc can be too imposing & in a car get you captured in the motorway lane when slightly faster traffic is in the outside lanes. I know on a bike it's easier to accelerate out of being captured but I'd turn it off for classic if I had the option. I'd love a demo ride. Great vid Mr Smart
You can select standard cruise control or adaptive cruise control in the dash 👍
@@teapotone that's great KTM give the rider that option. Would be good to see you do the picos on it.
😆😆😁👍🏍🧡 great stuff Bruce.
Loveing the fun and giggles on this one. I’m like that every time I ride my ‘17 plate SAS 😁
All you peeps banging on about KTM reliability 🙄have you been on GS forums😬🙊
Suppose y’all don’t buy Ducati cos of crap electrics 😆
Owning a Gen3 1290SDR I can sympathise with the indicator stalk. You do get used to it but why couldn't they use a normal shape is beyond me. The self cancelling works well though.
The indicator shuts off after 10 blinks so you don’t have to shut it off manually! 😉
Just bought a new 2022 SAS, the only bike able to wean me of my 4 year old R1200 GSA Triple black.
Considering a used 2021 GSA and this KTM 1290 SAS. Curious about the difference in wind protection at freeway speeds 80+mph? Stability passing semis, windy conditions... Also, do you ride 2up, side cases, and have any comparisons to make?
@@ridemfast7625 Lots to answer here. Lets have a go. 1) Protection is similar and due to my height I have to have a givi deflector on top of the screen for both bikes. 2) Stability is slightly better on the GSA but not by much. 3) I ride 2 up and both bikes handle the weight brilliantly, the KTM has an adjustable pre-load while the GSA has an auto sensor. 4) No side cases but a 48L top box. Brief comparisons: The KTM murders the GSA on power and the sports bikes were not quicker on the Italian/Swiss alps a couple of weeks ago. The GSA has more low end torque albeit less power but feels more 'planted'. I felt that I 'sat in' the GSA, not on top. The KTM feels slightly on top but not by much. Now for why I swapped my GSA for the KTM: Adaptive cruise control, Illuminated switch clusters, self cancelling indicators, a comprehensive choice on what extra's to purchase which keeps the price down by not including everything. You can configure out what you will not use. Hope this helps.
@@ScragNath Thank you! Not many ride the 1290 2up. Im considering a 2021 GSA because it also has all the bells and whistles. Accept, the Adaptive Cruise Control. And that feature is of interest to me. And a new KTM costs less than a used GSA. Going to look at the ktm tomorrow. They dont allow test rides though. I went to the bmw dealership and they did not have any gs, gsa or even an rt - used or new. So, no test rides or even the ability to sit on a bike. Ughh... So reviews are the main source of making a decision.
@@ridemfast7625 Don't know where you are located but I road tested 4 motorcycle makes before I bought my KTM in May. I test rode the new BMW R1250 GSA, Triumph 1200 Tiger GT Pro, KTM 1290 Super Adventure S and the Ducati Multistrada here in the midlands. I chose the KTM after being a 4 year GSA rider because it suited me. Just back from an 8 country tour of europe. It was fantastic.
@@ScragNath Live east of Sacramento is the sierra foot hills. Lots of fantastic back roads and passes. The nearest bmw dealer is taking orders and said 1-2 months before they get bikes in. The next closest bmw dealer is about 2 hours away. Dont know what they have.
Just got one and send good bye to my 1250GS. what a bike the KTM is
So did I but the bought the R model much better suspension and way better off road
Worry, not.....you'll both be back at your KTM dealerships plenty, and probably see a rider pass blissfully past on your old BMW lol.
@@tonebonetones well until that happens you best strap your turbo on or you'll be lucky to get close enough to read my number plate 160bhp braapp braapp!
Looks fun, after three GSs I fancy a change but the 2 year warranty is sad considering reliability reputation. But then my GSA has eaten it’s valves, head replaced under warranty. I think this version looks a lot better than previous so I’ll give one a test ride😬
Aye I’m not saying the GS/GSA is faultless, it’s just that when things go wrong the attitude and service from a BMW dealer is genuinely favourable (I know there are exceptions obviously).
With KTM it’s just pot luck sadly
A bit late but I wanna share my thoughts. I'm 24 and own a 2020 Street Triple 765 RS and was looking around for something more comfy, so I tried the 1250 GS and this. Very different bikes. The 1290 is fast, exciting and playful, but compared to the GS it felt heavy to turn in, and too stable. The GS surely isn't that exciting in comparison but for everything else (comfort, wind protection, style, suspension) I preferred the GS... And I'm a hoon. Looks like I'm the only one...
Each to their own bud - glad you gave them a try 👍
22 minute of Bruce you just keep on laughing
Great review sir, am on my way to buy one! What phone and phone holder are you using? Looks nice.
Thanks Lars, I use the UltimateAddOns.com phone holder and mounts. You get the case for your specific phone and then get whatever mounting solution you prefer.
I use the Helix strap mount as it allows me to easily transfer between different bikes, plus I swear it eliminates any issues of vibration effecting your phones camera - I’ve had zero issues in the 3-4yrs I’ve been using these now.
This is the mounting strap I use (you need to buy a case separately for your phone)

That ACC kept you right in that other truck’s blind spot perfectly! Bravo!!!
Massive power, massive torque, intercontinental comfort with thoroughbred off-road ability. What other bike do you need? And all for much, much less than many people spend on a sporty second car.
Yep, can’t argue with any of that 👍
Auto(matic) pilot is not "just switching off" either, it just reduces your control input, you still need to pay attention, i.e. have a pilot/driver/rider there that's being attentive.
😂 Friggin' cans! The white van of lay-by's 😩...Love my GS, miss my 1190, feel like I've got a big KTM bullseye on my back, "this close" to a deposit, but they're not coming to the US until 2022...maybe a good thing 🤑...great as usual, Bruce 👊🏼
I take it you liked it then🤣🤣👍👍👍it looks awesome mate 👍
