I’ve ridden from Canada to Deals Gap almost every year for fifteen years . . . alas, not this year. Can’t wait to get back to the Smokies! Ride it smooth and ride it classy.
Getting more and more excited about the Gen3 GT. Both SDR and the SAS get blinding reviews so fingers crossed for the practical version without the off road compromises.
There is talk, okay, there is ONE guy who says a friend of his who works at KTM (higher than dealer level) has said there will be no Gen 3 GT. Currently the only place you CANT buy a Gen 2 is in the North American market. I am waiting for official announcement. My '20 GT that I acquired in Jan of 2020 is going strong with 22.5K miles and if the Gen 3 does not come come out I might look at this Super Adventure S...no I probably wont...
Nothing us guaranteed for sure but that wouldn't make sense to me. The GT is a successful model so I don't see what they wouldn't. I think we'll know for sure in the next month or two
Gents thanks for introducing me to RST gear. Getting back on two wheels after about a 5 year hiatus and just ordered some fresh RST what nots. Thanks- a viewer from the US.
I'm waiting for the "Yeah but ktm break down" comment. Between a 990adv and my 1290 sas I've covered ( thrashed)78,000 miles mostly across Europe in the last 4.5 4yrs. Never put a spanner on either.
Sydney city traffic on a 40*C day! That’s heatwave! My Ducati’s rear cylinder hard boiled my nuts. It also killed the petrol pump fuse under the tank (above the front cylinder). These poms don’t know heatwaves!
I've a 2021 vstrom xt (over 9k miles). Rusting aside it's a fantastic bike although the power and grunt for me is hugely missing. My next purchase is 100% the KTM adventure S. I was wanting the R but after watching the motorbike shows review on the S.... it's VERY capable offroad.
I did a double take when you said you were in a "heatwave". 21 or 22 degrees. I live in Australia and a normal summers day is anywhere from 30 to 35 degrees. A heatwave is 40 degrees plus. Last year we had a couple of days of 45 degrees. Now thats hot. Every bike I have ever owned has been hot to ride in summer. Mind you, we think it's cold when it's about 15 degrees. But we can easily ride all year round.
Breaking news: this bike belongs to the TRAVEL segment in KTM range. Sure, there is the word « Adventure » written on it, ok. But will you get bitter if you don’t find feathers on a « Hayabusa »?
as a 1190S rider but also Ducati owner, I was keen on testing the Multi V4. But then I heard "you can keep your V4". 's what I thought. KTM plays this game best
The first time I rode an 1190 SA-R my initial thoughts were bigtime Supermoto with raw power and gnarly feel good factor. The 1290 was a bit softer in comparison. It's good to hear you say the new SAS seems to be going back to the 1190's feel.
Just 1:27 into the video and we find out why the bike is such a beast, Its not shortened chassis, Its not the fire breathing 1290cc lump, Its not the 6 axis flux capacitor gubbings! Underneath all that plastic is a Cyberman!
Hadd a 990, loved it, should a kept it... had an 1190, no comment. Just tested this 1290 adv s... chuffing hell, bloody fan,sodding,tastic. So much better than the 1190....
Not ridden a 1290 before, no, but I have an 1190. Never heard the bike get a mention on this channel for comparison against anything, I don’t think. Definitely a hooligan. Thought I’d never replace it but the Africa Twin looks good and with dependable Honda refined I guess? My galvanised bolts are all corroded on a bike that’s never seen salt and has been pampered it’s whole life. The plastics no longer fit (somehow they’ve shrunk and holes don’t align), the screen was replaced years ago as the standard one made everything worse, the mirror glass rattles - I notice they haven’t changed them of all the things they have! As much as I like the bike I vowed not to get another KTM but this has me tempted.
High praise, indeed, bearing in mind how impressed you were with the V4 multistrada. However, like many a tester, you're not putting your money on the line for what would be most people's sole motorcycle. It's one thing pissing around on one for lolz and quite another wondering when it's going to be at the dealers putting something right. What puts me off this is a) Reliability ( a Swiss army knife of a bike has to be as reliable as a...well...Swiss army knife.) Would you have one of these as your only bike? Those TFT's like misting up across the range in KTM, and watching the MCN long term review of the Super Duke, and it's myriad of issues, yeah naw. b) Lack of colour schemes and KTM's styling theme. What if you hate orange? c) Build quality. It's cheaper than the GS or Multistrada for a good reason.
So, the difference between the S and R could be further blurred by changing out to either more road or more off road biased tires?? I really like the black/orange color option on the S version. I wish the R version had the same color options.
Great video bro. I'm sure the bike is awesome but i would prefer the Tiger 1200 but that's preference. I have the feeling that KTM is a better bike. Also,1.29 for petrol...That was the good days
Fuel consumption is great, mine does 55mpg and drops to only 53mpg after a day at Thruxton whereas my GSA 1200 TC would drop to 39mpg after a day at Thruxton and average 48mpg
Three years ago, I couldn’t make my mind between the SDR and the SAS. I kid you not. Then your video was published on the SAS (at least YOU didn’t crash it 😏) and I ended up buying it and it has been formidable. Today, I find myself in front of the same dilemma. This vid doesn’t help. Or maybe it does. I’m dying to hear what « daddy » has to say about is, as well. Also, at 15:00: you’d be surprised to know how many times I found myself lost by my GPS, with the option of taking a small offroadish trail (the kind even you Brits wouldn’t dare to call a B road), and I took it. Because I could. And that was fun, and fast. And a few tractors were left in disbelief. Love from France.
Any idea when you're going to do the MSV4S vs SA1290S back-to-back? I'm hankering after the GTv3,0, but all these videos of the SAS have got me thinking about one of these instead.
I think the "off road adventure" segment was where Allen Millyard recently turned up uninvited with his son on a straight 6 cylinder Kawasaki Z1 and a 5 cylinder KH 2 stroke. Mmm, adventure bikes hey...
Question for you. When you do these reviews do you often ride the previous model just before the review so the comparison is fresh or do you just go by your notes from riding the previous model 2,3,4,5 years earlier?
That’s a nice big screen, but this is a question to anyone who knows: For simple maintenance (IE: oil change) is it necessary to own a special code reader or have a dealership turn off the great big screen’s “service” notification?
Did you bump into Mossy and Allen Millyard up that hill by any chance? This is much better than the Busa launch. No pathetic excuses or half pint bike - just proper development and here's the keys. Top job and I'm going to beek a test ride when they can because this might be what I get instead of the Busa.
Hey Al, nice ride review - sounded very honest. Looking forward to a 3 bike show-down comparison video of the 2021 KTM 1290 SAS with the new Multi 4S and grand daddy GS1250 (not A). Much love & respect from NZ. Future video idea - what it's like to own and live with these kinds of bikes in the long term. All the journos dish out the press release (ex-Journo myself) and the spec sheet kerfuffle. It would be good to see some real-world experiences with your style of reviews.
Aaay, combe gibbet! I thought the area from Wantage onwards looked very familiar! Lovely roads between Wantage and Newbury, some decent bends and just fields either side.
they come standard 10 years and counting , tell ya one thing have good fire alarms in your garage with those sketchy wiring harnesses . Burn your house down that manufacturer !
Oh man this thing looks tempting. I might start putting on some major miles the next few years and this could be my next machine. Currently on a 17 fz/mt09 and was thinking next bike id want something more practical, with wind protection, more torque and after riding my buddies ftr1200, I suddenly understand the appeal of V twins. This seems to check everyone of those boxes. Ive also considered the GT version but really struggled to get over its appearance 🤮
Looks a proper weapon! Got a bit of germanic influence to the ol’ gal! My XR is looking dated already. Thought I was going to have to put up with Mr Mann’s (still pretty good) review! Statham looking trim and on point too ☺️.
Great review and even on roads I'm very familiar with, I won't say it made me buy one because I've already ordered it and collecting in 3 days!! But it has helped me justify the spend :-)
I love my GSA, but I’d never get it if I wasn’t doing 50% off-road. There are much more exciting bikes if you’re only doing on-road riding or you’re just doing the odd bit of gravel.
I never found my Gen 2 1290 SDR engine or gearbox rough or lumpy - engine was smooth and tractable at low speed/revs and almost any gear; the gearbox was positive and really slick with the quickshifter/autoblipper...but if they are both now even better I think I'd better buy another :)
KTM just opened a dealership in my country, i have never met anyone who owns one yet. What sort of issues (even if minor) did you encounter with yours? Both short and long term. Thanks
Another good down to earth informative video 👌. Im predominantly a sports bike rider but I recently bought a Honda X-ADV 750 for commuting and a bit of touring..i bought a 2017 model but the 2021 is supposed to be a massive improvement if you get a chance to tell us what the new one is like please do 👍
I'm disappointed that nobody(?) includes 2-up performance and comfort for these reviews. Particularly whether the suspension can gracefully handle 2 people + luggage on over some rocks & ruts. I don't think I would bother to own an adv over 1000cc if not for taking my wife on trips, it's important to me.
I have just rode the new Superduke R today and will be testing the Adventure S on Saturday, so big question Adventure S, SuperDuke R or even SuperDuke GT? I'm seriously considering px'ing my V4 Panigale for one of them.
I just put my KTM on the trailer to head down to the Tail of the Dragon. Stopped to check my phone and Bam! A new 44teeth review. Perfect timing lads!
I rode my 990 SMT from Montreal, Qc to the dragon via the blue ridge parkway up and down two years ago. It was amazing. Have a nice trip mate !

So, the difference between the S and R could be further blurred by changing out to either more road or more off road biased tires?? I really like the black/orange color option on the S version. I wish the R version had the same color options.
Solved the seat comfort problem by fitting an Airhawk. KTM should make an integrated air cushion standard for touring bike seats.
awesome vid!
can we see a mid range sports tourer? I can't wait for the new Yamaha tracer 9 GT to drop in AUS. that is also meant to be 90% new.

So there is no need for the 1290gt any more?
OK, OK... but can it do like longer trips and stuff without breaking down?
For this latest 1290 adv S is it KTM already counter about heating under seat while bike idle at traffic light or junction?
Oh man this thing looks tempting. I might start putting on some major miles the next few years and this could be my next machine. Currently on a 17 fz/mt09 and was thinking next bike id want something more practical, with wind protection, more torque and after riding my buddies ftr1200, I suddenly understand the appeal of V twins.
