Two weeks ago, we saw the release of KTM’s new race-inspired 890 models — The 890 Adventure R and 890 Adventure R Rally. This week we get to see what the standard edition has in store for 2021. The previous standard 790 Adventure has always been the more travel-oriented version of KTM’s ready-to-race middleweights, with a lower seat h, improved wind protection, more comfortable two-piece seating, low front fender, and a more road-tuned suspension. Yet it was still no slouch when the asphalt ended, sporting an agile chassis, spoke wheels with a 21″ front and 18″ rear, as well as sump protection, wrap-around handguards, and ample ground clearance to ride at a sporty pace.

Now with the release of the 890 Adventure, KTM makes several improvements that extend the versatility of the bike for longer-range travel. Updates include more engine grunt, improved handling, added suspension adjustability and rider-focused technology

“With the development of the new KTM 890 ADVENTURE we hit all our marks by offering an upgraded machine for both road and gravel riding. With the new engine we worked a lot on optimizing the overall performance and feeling while out riding. The result is a big improvement in the bike’s rideability, better stability, less gear shifting and added comfort for the long days on the saddle. With the KTM 890 ADVENTURE we wanted a KTM that sets the benchmark through its performance on the tarmac while being able to veer offroad and keep the same high standards.” Joachim Sauer, KTM Product Manager Travel

The KTM 790 Adventure formed a robust basis for KTM engineers to begin their search to offer much more, while still maintaining that resourcefulness and confidence-inspiring handling. The new 889cc LC8c engine is 90cc larger than the 790 model. Bore, stroke and compression were added to raises horsepower and torque figures, while 20% more rotating mass was added to the crankshaft for improved smoothness and grunt at low revs. According to KTM, the result is a bike that can corner in the twisties, and carry all your camping gear, plus a passenger with less effort. The KTM 890 Adventure also comes with a refined and stronger clutch to cope with the boosted performance.

The suspension also sees improvements. A new WP APEX rear shock offers greater customization potential through a new rebound damping adjuster and an additional hand adjuster for spring preload. The suspension matches the rest of the chassis configuration in placing the bike firmly between use for the tarmac and the trail. 

However, off-road handling has not been ignored. With 7.9 inches (200mm) of suspension travel and Dakar Rally-inspired ergonomics the bike is comparably slim and nimble on the trail. Plus with an accessible seat h (33.5 inches), a low fender for improved aerodynamics, a 5.3-gal (20-liter) tank and KTM MY RIDE with navigation on the dash, you can comfortably travel further on a variety of different terrain.

Prefer the flat expanses of the road? The KTM 890 Adventure has Adventure-spec tires, a full-size TFT display, Cornering ABS, Motorcycle Traction Control and Motor Slip Regulation, a seat that is adjustable in two hs and a strong, yet lightweight, subframe for passenger or baggage.
