2023 KTM 890 Adventure R - first impressions and mods
Просмотров 9 тыс.Год назад
Just a few thoughts after a couple of days and 800km with 2023 KTM 890 Adv R. I moved to this bike from 2021 Husky 701 Enduro. So far, so good! :) 3d Printable phone mount: www.printables.com/pl/model/506779-ktm-890-adventure-gps-mount it is the standard AMPS hole pattern most mounts use (38mm x 30mm) and RAP-B-347U Ram base fit perfectly.
Are motorcycle mods waste of money?

I am fine with modifying bike to my needs. But now, when I am selling my 701 Enduro, I find that it makes it much harder to find a rider that will appreciate it... here are my thoughts from the 701 selling process.

long mileage TKC80 - 15.000km on 701 Enduro
Просмотров 933Год назад
Continental TKC80 - factory mounted tyres after 15.000 km (9.300 miles) were still doing quite well, but because of the upcoming trip I decided to change them for new set of TKC80's. Good for commuting, good for gravel roads, pretty bad in the mud, but overall - great tyre for my kind of riding. Thanks for watching!

I have 2024 ktm 690 enduro r , the same bike. Also, i have the same opinion, very good bike and a perfect compromize, also in off-road.
super ultra cool bike :) have a lot of fun with it!
Thank you for this clear and useful explanation.
Glad it was helpful!
beautiful area I am traveling from Austria to Mongolia in 2026 and am looking forward to the adventure...
Kyrgyzstan in my point of view is the best country for adventure motorcycling. Views are breathtaking. Are planning to ride there from home on wheels? We have used the shipping company advfactory.com. Have a great trip in 2026! :)
Excellent 👍🤣😅❤❤❤
Thanks 😆
no to teraz pojawił sie nowy prawdziwy dual sport, DR-Z 4S. Mniej hardkorowy niz 501 ale ze znacznie większymi interwałami serwisowymi i z pewnoscią sporo niższą ceną.
Bardzo fajna ta nowa DRka! Myślę, że to byłaby solidna konkurencja dla CRF300, acz cena ma być podobno lekko powyżej 40k PLN. Sporo. Za Gasgas 500 teraz cena stoi 42,500, KTM 47,500, Huska 47,900. Wracając do Suzuki: tylko 5 biegów, 151 kg, 38KM sprawia, ze to jednak będzie bardzo inny motocykl niż 501. Ale zdecydowanie fajnie, ze pojawia się w końcu coś w kategorii dual sport. Super!
@@CykloGamonie ta cena to czysta spekulacja i jesli bedzie tyle to nie wróże sukcesu, max 35 tyś.
Cytując Motovoyagera: "Domyślamy się, że cena obu nowych modeli powinna być do siebie bardzo zbliżona (albo wręcz ta sama), a wynosić okolice 40 tysięcy złotych, plasując jednocylindrówki Suzuki spod znaku DR-Z między nierejestrowaną RM-Z 450 (38 900 zł) a V-Stromem 800 (48 900 zł)." Ale zaiste - spekulacja i nie uwzględnia upustów (501 w cenniku przecież pokazywana jest w cenie ponad 60k, a faktyczna sprzedaż pod koniec sezonu to zupełnie inne pieniądze....)
You will enjoy this bike a lot. I have 2016 FE450 with 618h and 29 500km on the clock. It really can take you everywhere!
thanks, mate :) this is what I was hoping for when deciding on that bike!
Ja nie mogę się nadziwić nad tym wyborem. Przeszedłem zupełnie odwrotną drogę: EXC (typowe hard enduro) -> KTM 690 (już trochę bardziej cywilizowany i komfortowy dual sport) -> Yamaha Tenere 700, którą jeżdżę obecnie. Do tego typu jazdy ja osobiście nie czułem dużej różnicy między 690 i EXC. Tenere 700 już była sporym przeskokiem i ta masa stała się dla mnie mocno odczuwalna, jednak komfort, zasięg, kultura pracy czy jazda po asfalcie powiedzmy, że te niedogodności wynagradzają. 690/701 sobie zostawiłem, ale na EXC bym nie wrócił już nigdy, bo serwisowanie tego motocykla to był koszmarek (jeśli sporo jeździsz i chciałbyś robić to książkowo). Dla mnie to są motocykle wyczynowe do jeżdżenia w zawodach, a do takiego casualowego jeżdżenia to 690/701 spisują się lepiej, bo praktycznie masa jest niewiele większa (nie czuję jej aż tak bardzo, a interwały olejowe czy zasięg (13,5 litra zbiornik) robią ogromną różnicę. Ja jedynie żałuję trochę, że nie przesiadłem się na 890 Adventrue, natomiast powiedziałem sobie, że już nigdy KTM nie kupię po tych problemach z jakością i obsługą dilerską jakie miałem. Tenere troszkę taka młotkowata i może brakuje jej pazura, ale wynagradza to prostotą i bezawaryjnością - ufam, że zawsze mnie dowiezie do celu, co w KTMach nie było takie oczywiste 😅 A następne moto w jakiejś tam dalszej przyszłości to chyba będzie już duży adventure typu GS1300 bądż Tiger 1200 Rally, ale to za ładnych pare lat
Cześć Matheo i dzięki za super komentarz! Chyba to nie wybrzmiało w moim ostatnim video, ale 501 to nie jest i nigdy nie będzie mój jedyny motocykl - tutaj absolutnie zgadzam się ze wszystkim, co napisałeś. Wciąż moim podstawowym sprzętem jest i (mam nadzieję, że długo będzie) 890AdvR, który jest dla mnie idealnym* motocyklem adventure (*tak, wiem, jakoś wykonania to jest ostatnio wielki temat, ale KTM już się z tym ogarnia...). 501 będzie z czasem modyfikowana w kierunku, w jakim ten motocykl jest sprzedawany w Stanach w wersji 501s, czyli dual sport. I faktycznie na ten moment nie planuję nim jechać w żadną dłuższą podróż - bo jeśli to są podróże na kołach z domu, to zapewne w 9 przypadkach na 10 pojadę 890tą. A w czasie tych dalszych podróży i tak już od lat wynajmujemy motocykle na miejscu. I jak myślę o moim motocyku za kolejnych 10 lat, to też patrzę czule na dużego GSa... ale póki co, lekkie dual sporty dają mi za dużą frajdę, żeby z nich rezygnować :) Pozdrowienia!
@@CykloGamonie a odczuwasz dużą różnicę na korzyść 501 względem 701 w terenie? Bo ja osobiście tak średnio, a użytkowo to 690/701 wydają mi się dużo przyjemniejsze. W tych hard enduro to ta pojemność baku i interwały serwisowe mnie strasznie wkurzają. Albo brak stacyjki - czuć, że to jest sprzęt nastawiony na wyczynowe użytkowanie
@@Matheo780 trochę jest dla mnie za wcześnie, żeby to jednoznacznie ocenić (501 vs 701). przez chwilę zastanawiałem się nad powrotem do 701, ale doszedłem do wniosku, że to zdecydowanie zbyt blisko 890 i że posiadanie 2 podobnych motocykli nie będzie miało dla mnie sensu. A 501 to już zdecydowanie inny sprzęt niż 890AdvR. a interwały serwisowe jeszcze nie zaczęły mnie wkurzać, acz przy układzie jako drugi moto to na bank nie będzie jakoś specjalnie uciążliwe, zwłaszcza, że ja lubię grzebać przy moto... zobaczymy, jak będzie :) (a stacyjkę już dokupiłem, bo to faktycznie totalny debilizm ze strony KTM/Husky, żeby ten motocykl sprzedawać bez kluczyka w zestawie homologacyjnym...)
@@CykloGamonie polecam kanał Krzysztof Elektryczny gdzie objechane europejskie tety na lc4 i T7 (choc exc 500 stoi w domu). hard enduro to na koryta rzek i strome podjazdy w górach czyli np Rumunia poza tetem :-)
wg mnie to jest bardzo wąska perspektywa na 500tkę - RTWPaul pojechał na 500 exc-f dookoła świata (warto obejrzeć np ruclips.net/video/RDxf9eZRvP4/видео.html), a w US to jest po prostu kolejny motocykl dual sport (sprzedają go tam na oponach TKC80 i w dual-sportowej konfiguracji szpeju). Jest to zatem dość uniwersalna i sprawdzona konstrukcja, przy możliwości serwisowania we własnym zakresie naprawdę nie przewiduję większych problemów także w spokojniejszym użytkowaniu niż hard enduro. Ale jak będzie naprawdę? Zobaczymy :)
the fuel tank size is a deal breaker--complete joke
Hey mate and thank you for the comment. Yes, 8l is absolutely not enough for any kind of travel, but for dual sport riding it seems ok so far. The larger issue is, how many of those 8l you can actually use before the bike looses gasoline on the level where the pump is. This is not the best design... But of course there are aftermarket tanks, but so far, I do not need those, as for those bigger trips I still would take my 890AdvR. Cheers!
@@CykloGamonie Panie toto jeszcze nic :D Zazwyczaj zostaje mi 1,5 litra paliwa i żeby z tego korzystać trzeba dobrze majtać huską we wszystkie strony żeby się przelewało do zbiorniczka przy pompie. Pompa jak siemasz :D Czyli realny bezpieczny zasięg to 125 km a następne kilometry z duszą na ramieniu.
@rowermojezycie dzięki za komentarze! Mam dokładnie tak samo, po 130km jazdy włącza się rezerwa i wtedy sprawnie zaczynam szukać stacji benzynowej. A że te u nas są średnio co drugie skrzyżowanie, to naprawdę da się żyć z tym bakiem przy lokalnym lataniu. Pozdrowienia!
@@CykloGamonie Do nielokalnego latania mam dodatkowy rotopax na magażnik który zwiększa mi zasięg o 100km... i nie zamierzam wozić brzydkiego garba acerbisa nontoper.
@@CykloGamonie Probably 120km on slower and technical riding and 160km on the road. Carry extra fuel or bring a buddy with a bigger gas tank
I'm surprised that you bought a hard enduro, I hope you have other plans than riding Polish tet rats etc. I had a Yamaha WR450 converted to a hard adv (large tank, fairing, seat). It didn't work for 2 reasons, each trip was 150-250 km and I was doing too many kilometers for a high-performance engine. The second reason is that Polish TET and RATS are too easy for such a motorcycle, boring. Then I bought LC4 and took it to Bosnia and Montenegro. 95% of the route was also suitable for Adv but for that 5% I was glad I had lc4. Currently, I have an 890r too, and this is a good combination because if I want to do an easier tet with travel time, I have an 890r, and if I want to do a more difficult tet (Albania, Kosovo), I transport LC4 on an car trailer. However, I don't see any use for EXC, because it's basically off-trail riding in the mountains. At our age...? ;-)
Hey Marceli :) and thank you for your comment. I think I didn't make that clear in the video, but 501 is not and probably will never be my only bike. I still own and absolutely enjoy riding on my 890AdvR. And for any further trip on wheels I would definitely choose 890, no doubt about it. 501 is here to serve as dual sport for local rides, to learn more enduro (and yes, even considering my age ;) with more to offer than CRF300. But if I would ever think of exploring Andalusia trails in Spain, I would definitely ship 501 there (as we did last spring before going to Morocco). So I know it might sound crazy for me to get an enduro (soon to be more like dual sport), but I see many ideas on where to put it into action :) Pozdrowienia!
@@CykloGamonie Buying motorcycles is never rational, but rather a search for new experiences. I hope you have fun, the fact is that homologated hard enduro will soon disappear, so this may be one of the last opportunities to buy something like this (everyone removes the homologated power limit, so it's a blatant scam, that's why there is no official WR450 anymore nor CRF450L on sale, the Japanese didn't want to mess around)
Hi Rafal! Did you bought this bike in addition to the 1 year old KTM or is it a replacement for the 890 Adventure? As you are "floating" between the KTM and the FE501 I still believe you already had the right bike... 😂 Anyway have fun! It's always interesting to hear and see your thoughts and impressions. Best regards, Ralf
Hey Ralf and thank you for the comment! 501 is definitely not a replacement for my 890 :) 890 is here to stay and I hope to keep it for much longer (if only it will serve me well with no reliability issues). Husky is my idea for local trails exploring with more juice than CRF300 and I am considering shipping it to places like Andalusia in Spain, where the trails are everywhere. We will see :) Thank you and kind regards from Poland!
Any problems with Cranks etc? Thinkin about this one but, so much conflicting bad news. Many thanks👍👍🏍️🏍️🎃🎃🙏🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hey there, thanks for the question - and I have no issues what so ever, at least so far after 13k km (8K miles). KTM recently said they will cover the cost of any cranks related repairs, so I am a bit less stressed about it. Anyway, I totally enjoy riding my 890!
Do you ever get this bike cook your legs? I've tried the 2024 version and the heat on the back of your calves is pretty excessive. I'd have to install a heat shield or something.
Hey there and thank you for the comment. To be honest, I felt a lot more heat on Norden 901 than on my 890 Adv R, and I know this is strange as those engines are the same. Answering your question - I can feel the heat on my legs, but this is far, far away from excessive cooking you mentioned. And in summer I am riding to work wearing jeans and Dainese York Air Shoes, and it is absolutely fine. It might be different settings for other markets...
the buffering is from the handguards on the norden remove them and its gone
Hey there and thanks for the comment - is is quite intersting, I have probably the same handguards, I might want to give it a shot :) Best!
2017 here with 50000 on it and not a single time has it left me stranded. I have a 990 for longer trips too. After all this time I’m considering either selling it for a 500exc, or maybe keep it and get a little 250/350. Good video!
Thanks for sharing! Here is how the story has unfolded for me: a year ago I switched from 701 to 890 Adventure R and I loved everything about it, except I only missed the light weight when going off-road. So I bought a 2018 CRF250L to fill that gap. Year later I am selling my CRF and I just got a FE501 to be the dual sport besides 890. And I hope this will be my setup for the years ahead :) (and I went with 501 instead of 350 just to have more capability on the road). Cheers!
@@CykloGamonie that makes sense, great decision. Enjoy!
I’ve got 50k on my 2017, it’s been awesome, starting to consider a new bike again, not sure if I should go with the 690/701, or my friend bought a Kove 450 that is pretty darn good. Not as fast in a straight line obviously but it handles everything very well.
Here in Warsaw, Poland there was a Kove dealer for some time, but it has shut down. They told me there was an issue with getting parts for service... So I decided to go with a less exotic way with FE501... Cheers!
Excellent, thank you. I have a KTM 890R which is a wonderful bike but with so many reported cam related issues as well as a few other things, I am reluctant to take it too far from home on extended trips and have been looking at the Suzuki DR650. However, after having a 95 hp engine, dropping down to 39hp, plus all the other upgrade mods to make it ride well, I'm not excited about the DR, except for it's legendary reliability. What I read about the Husk 701, seems to put the excitement back in. Would you take it RTWorld? Also, I am 171 cm and am concearned about the height, especially in stop and go traffic. Was that an issue for you? Thank you!
Hey there mate and thank you for the comment. 1. Would I take 701 RTW? No. I would rather take CRF300 Rally or T7 for RTW. Just to have peace of mind. 690/701 is a great bike, but I've heard too many stories about issues with that platform (even with hydraulic clutch being fixed now). 2. With 171 cm of hight you will definitely need a lowering kit as in stock form 701 was already very (very!) high for me with 180cm. With lowering kit you will loose some ground clearance, but without it you will have a bad time... 3. I also own 890AdvR now and obviously I am concerned with the camshaft-gate too... but owning 890 I would never go to DR, and 690/701 would also be a signifficant step down in comfort and long distance traveling. Now KTM confirmed they will cover all costs of potential cam-shaft issues, so I am sticking to it for sure. Best!
At 76 years old, I am finding the KTM 890R is getting a bit heavy so the much lighter weight of the 701 is attractive. And yes, I've lowered the, KTM so I would also definitely lower the 701.
@@bikerabbi 👍 First of all, I am sure you will not be disappointed with the engine, it has plenty of power. What you will probably want to take care about are the vibrations (and there are some ways to reduce it) and comfort (seat is terrible compared to 890). To make it long distance travelling ready you probably think of many other mods, but the good thing is - there are plenty of aftermarket parts for this platform, so only your imagination is the limit :) And thank you for inspiration, I am getting close to my 50ties and I hope to be riding for many more years as you are! :) Take care, mate.
Cześć czy mógłbyś opisać jak on zachowuje się na asfalcie chodzi mi o to czy są głośne na ile są głośne czy jest jakaś taka Graniczna prędkość która jest dokuczliwa dla ucha dzięki
Hej Piotrek, powiem Ci szczerze, że nie pamiętam, żeby one mi jakkolwiek dokuczały w zakresie hałasu. Jechałem na nich też dłuższe odcinki autostradami na 701 Enduro i dużo większym kłopotem był komfort (a w zasadzie jego brak) siedzenia niż hałas opon.
Great review, i have an 890 smt and when i brake gently approaching lights or junction mine shudder quite a bit, so not a clunk but a bad vibration as if the contact surfaces are binding, its fine under hard/normal braking but light feathered braking causes a nasty shudder, if it wasnt for that the bike would be perfect
Thanks! I believe I also had that shudder in the beginning, but a few hundreds kilometers in this was gone (and replaced by a clunk, that was recently fixed during a service). Have you tried cleaning the brake discs ? Maybe that would be helpful too. Keeping my fingers crossed for a solution. Cheers!
Thank you for this great video. I'm currently in the process of replacing my Tuareg with a 701 I plan to adventurize with a Rade Garage tower and cruise control. Your video further reenforces my decision to go with the lighter 701. Thanks.
Hey mate and thank you for the comment. Interestingly, I am considering some sort of 501/701 once again... it is truly an awesome machine. One reflection: if I was to do the build for me once more, I would strongly consider Adventure Spec fairing instead of my rally tower. It is much simpler and lighter solution for a bit of wind protection and having navigation in the sight area. Just a thought to share :) Best!
I don't bother looking at the fuel gauge or range. Just go by the kms.
and it makes perfect sense! Cheers mate.
I agree. Nice and quiet is the way to go these days.
Отличный отзыв! Но почему не рассматривали Yamaha Tenere 700?
Hey there, to be honest I was considering T7 for a very long time. Finally I gave up after a few longer test drives - it was far too top heavy for me (I actually dropped the bike at the dealership....), the way the exhaust is mounted to the frame is basically a total mistake and yes... I need a good cruise control for those long highway miles... T7 has some positive sides like engine and reliability, but besides that the rest is already not so cool in 2024... Cheers!
Regarding your views on the exhaust noise output, I think that for a proper adventure bike it is much nicer to have a quieter bike, just so that you’re not making a noise nuisance out in the countryside.
+1 I have stock exhausts on both of my bikes exactly for that reason. I do not want to create any unnecessary noise when I ride in the countryside... even with the stock pipe on 890 I recently scared off the horses and that didn't feel right... Cheers!
Great video and summary. I’m moving from an Aprilia Tuareg 660 to a 690/701 for the capability and lower weight.
Thanks for your comment! 701/690 is a great platform, I absolutely loved my Husky! If you can keep your Aprilia for some time as a second bike, that might be a good idea if you also like to have longer road rides. I finally moved from 701 to 890 platform for exactly that reason. But if most of your riding is off the beaten track, you'd love it :) Cheers!
Doesn't this modifying apply to the whole motorcycle industry? There is an entire market of suppliers depending on manufacturers to build a basic motorcycle where you have to buy additional components (clutch cover to prevent the rear brake lever to put a hole in it is a straightforward example) to get it 'right' or 'the way it should have been build out of the factory'. I agree with you to rather have a modded bike where the former owner has experience with the mods and the reasons to put them on the motorcycle. I do have an additional question with regard to luggage. In this video I see the Kriega OS mounted on the 701 (can't see what size the bags are, 12 or 18 L?). In another video I've seen the 21Brother Rogal 40L. Would you be so kind to share your experience with both of these systems, since I'm looking for a set up to ride off road. I'm interested to know how these systems deal with the weight distribution, as I'm assuming you try to put all the heavy stuff as low as it gets, and as forward to the engine as possible. And how fast is it, for each system to take it off the bike, in case of a fall or at the end of the day when you set up camp, and (might) take the luggage inside your tent. Other question I have is with regard to the Rade Garage Tower. Did you install it yourself? If you did, or didn't :), is it plug-and-play, or do you have to be an electrician to be able to mount it? Looking forward to your reply!
Hey there and thank you for your comment and questions. 100% agree with the aftermarket parts, some of them are simply required to go off-road. Manufacturer is selling a bike with many parts being approved by the accountants, not riders... In regards to luggage - yes, I have tried a few solutions and my observations are: 21 brothers 40L (21brothers.pl/produkt/rogal-40l/) this is bulletproof bag, very good quality material and because of that quite heavy compared to Kriega OS. I was using that bag on my CRF250 Rally and during my trips I was not taking this bag off my bike, as this was either easy or fast to to. Because of that one morning I found out that some robber was going through my bag during the night (I didn't leave anything important in the bag and the parking space was on a closed parking, but still there was someone interested what is inside...) Kriega OS (my bags are 2x18l) - a bit less space (-4l vs 21 brothers), but very easy to mount and take off too - literally it takes 30 seconds.. And now I am taking bags with me into the room. My only concern is that the base is quite sharp on edges and will scratch your frame or plastics (you need to protect the whole surface with something). And my tower was not Rade Garage - it is Adventure Bike from Belgium. And yes, I was working on it with my good friend and we did it ourselves. I believe it is doable in one weekend if you are not even experienced with mechanics. Cheers!
Haven't got it yet, but still looking forward :) :)
perfect review! Thank you so much! One question: how does it perform on the highway at 130 km/h (80mph)? RPM? Does the high fender cause problems with the wind?
Hey there and thank your the comment. Fun fact, the fuel consumption is very different on this bike: I was able to get down to 3,4 l/100km in Morroco where it was a very slow kind of easy riding. 4,3-4,5 is my everyday consumption. 5,5 in on highway with 130km/h set on cruse on regular fuel (and regular is 95 octanes here in Poland, premium is 98) - it is working a bit north of 5k rpm on 6th gear (red line is at 9k rpm, so you still have plenty of space for acceleration). No issues with high fender whatsoever at highway speeds. No worries. Cheers!
Hi, according to the service manual the bike must be standing on the ground on its side stand when measuring the chain tension 👍
That is interesting - as I see in the 2023 Manual (23_3214754_en_OM.pdf), page 97, 13.9 Checking the chain tension, point #1: Raise motorcycle with rear lifting gear (page 94). So as per User Manual to my bike - it it not on the side stand. Best!
Nice video. I am an experienced OsmAnd user ... used it for overland travel. A couple of points for viewers. If loading a GPX file and wanting turn by turn, navigation instructions then suggest you select the 'Attach to Roads' option otherwise every bend in a straight road will be an instruction rather than the real turn x kms ahead. Also OsmAnd has a pre-built Motorcycle profile. It would be better to edit this one to be your preferred offroad bike profile. The other powerful things in OsmAnd I find very useful are POI display like camp sites, fuel etc .... and 'Plan Route' or just navigate on demand to a destination and let it identify the offroad tracks with true turn by turn navigation. Love OsmAnd ❤
Thank you very much for all of your hints - very useful! I will test 'attach to roads' feature this weekend - most of my time using the app is following .gpx tracks off-road, so I wonder how will it work ("attach to roads _off-road_ ;) ). And this is super interesting - do you know what are the default differenced between car profile and motorcycle profile? Best regards!
@CykloGamonie welcome ... the profile differences are things like vehicle parameters which is taken into account by the routing engine. Best to do a side by side profile comparison of each of the standard profiles.
@CykloGamonie the attach to Roads definitely works even on single tracks in the mountains
very good, honest review. I can completely follow your path to get there. I drive Norden 901. I stress the bike. I did some TET sections in northern Italy and ACT Italy. So far minor issues with bike.
Thanks for sharing! That is comforting to know, especially with the cam-shaft-gate rising in social media so quickly. I really hope KTM will address this problem as a responsible company should. Best!
2025 or 2024 ?
this is a 2023 model. Cheers!
@@CykloGamonie thanks for clarification. Title says 2025. Haven’t seen any literature on 2025 models yet.
No heat issues? Everyone says its roasts your legs alive? I commute, tour and ride offroad and my current GS is a little warm on my legs when in the city or very slow rocky sections but Ive heard this bike completely roasts you.
Hey there and thank you for the comment. Surprisingly, the Norden 901 Expedition I tested had a more noticeable heating issue than the 890 Adv R. Both bikes generate a lot of heat due to the Euro 5 emissions standard and large catalytic converter, especially when riding slowly or at stops. So yes, heat is an issue, but with current emission regulations it will probably be something we need to get used to... :/
Very friendly and explanatory, thanks a lot! Question is the engine heat disturbing the legs, mentioned by some 890r users, do you have any complaints or simply, what’s your experience?
Thank you so much for your comment :) in regards to heat I just wrote this reply for one of the comments: Surprisingly, the Norden 901 Expedition I tested had a more noticeable heating issue than the 890 Adv R. Both bikes generate a lot of heat due to the Euro 5 emissions standard and large catalytic converter, especially when riding slowly or at stops. So yes, heat is an issue, but with current emission regulations it will probably be something we need to get used to... :/ But honestly, even with such a ultra hot summer like the last one - I was noticing the heat, but it never reached a level of being a problem. I was in Morocco, I was riding when there was 36 degrees C on the highway and still it was business as usual.
@@CykloGamonieThank you so much for the reply. And I havent ridden any 890 yet, but I guess that the heat felt is the airflow directed by the radiator fans. That is what I see and guess diving into the design. So, unless the fans run, no heat is felt.
that could be true. I can surely say - heat is noticeable, but (at least for me) not an issue. It was much worse on Norden 901 - practically same bike, but heat management very different. Best! :)
10:16 These ARE BarkBusters, just with OEM plastics. BB makes them for KTM to sell as their own part. You can buy BB plastics and they will fit just fine, since the hardware is just stock BarkBusters.
that is a super cool hint, thank you! I didn't know that :)
Hey! A nice review! I have the same bike, and the only thing that made me look for an improvement was the engine vibration felt on a handlebars, especially when I am on a highway with a speed above 120kmph. I installed PDS with a little change. However, when I added the accessory bar end weight, it improved significantly overall comfort! I use barkbuster, so I went for their external bar end weight. Cheers!
Hey there, thank you for the comment and your hint on reducing handlebar vibrations. Sounds good!
Great content, clean cut as it is 😎👍🏻
Thanks 👍
rewelacja!
I bought this app, as much as it is old fashioned, for power users it is super nice! for light users - like my wife - it is almost "no no" comparing to Google Maps - simply OSMAnd is too difficult for her. Unless I set it up for her then she can easily follow it.
My rear only lasted 2,000 km ! However I do give it a hard time both on tarmac and trails ! The tarmac here is Portugal is grippy ! (but abrasive ) Off road , I’m often flat wide open , with the traction control making sure the rear doesn’t spin too much !
2K sounds like really heavy use :) And now I also understand some manufactures producing a much harder tyres too (like Mitas). Thank you for the comment and best regards from Poland :)
Hi, Great video! I have been messing around with osmand and have a question. do you always have to download an already existing gpx file to get the app to route along trails? is it possible to get the app to create a route using trails? much like kamoot does for mtb trails. if its not possible with osmand is there an app that does this? as in pick your destination and let the app suggest an off road route?
Hey there, thank you for the comment and the question. I am not aware if OsmAnd can create a route (+navigation) along already exiting trails that are on the map... I assume that if you would choose 'walking' as a profile and select your destination that is on the other end of the trail... that might work, but I have no idea if there is a toggle to "follow that trail" in the options. Best!
the low speed clunk is the steering head loose. loosen triple tree clamps before tightening. retighten all to spec.
Right, thanks! I have already checked the bolts on the steering dumper (as this was suggested before), head bolt is next. Best!
I have been using it on Android mobile. My preference is route tracing and storing the track for future reference. It is great for Off road trekking, hiking as well as tourism in new cities. File size of downloaded maps is very low as compared to that of Google maps which contain a lot of unnecessary data.. I move in hired vehicles or public transport so navigation direction requirement from a map is not at all required.
+1 When driving a car from point A to point B I still prefer Google Maps navigation, but for off-road + offline + .gpx following I haven't found anything better than OsmAnd+. Cheers!
The clunk at low speed with front braking is probably the head tube. This is a known issue as it loosens up over the first 500-1000 kms and develops play. I had this issue with mine and they tightened it back up at the first service. You can do it yourself, but you need the bike supported with the front wheel off the ground.
Thank you for the tip. I will try to tighten it up and see the result. Cheers!
Czekamy, czekamy
Rafał, to jeszcze inaczej zapytam. Sam mam kanał więc wiem, komentarze w cenie😊. Jedziesz jutro na TET POLSKA w garażu stoją 701 i 890 . Co bierzesz dzisiaj? Analogicznie, na przykład., jedziesz TETem na Nordcap , nie wiesz jak będzie. Co bierzesz?
a to dobre pytanie! Jeśli jechałbym z całym sprzętem do campingu, to pewnie chętniej zrobiłbym polski TET na 890. W tym tygodniu jadę na krótki wypad z namiotem i całym szpejem do biwakowania i cieszę się, że pojadę 890tką. Jeśli to byłaby jedno-, dwudniowa wycieczka w wersji light ze spaniem na kwaterach -> chętniej na 701. Ale już na Nordkapp tylko i wyłącznie 890. Jechałem do Rumunii i z powrtotem na 701 - da radę to zrobić, ale... można wygodniej. Ja już dobiegam do 50tki, więc pewne aspekty związane z wygodą zaczynają nabierać znaczenia. Ważne jest też to, czy jedziesz sam czy w towarzystwie. A jeśli w towarzystwie, to jakie towarzystwo ma moto. Bo jeśli oni są też na siglach, to nikt nie będzie cisnął zbyt szybko na możliwości 701, ale jak już mają twiny, to będąc na 701 zwalniasz grupę (tak, ja wiem, można na tym moto pojechać szybko, ale po pierwsze to będzie strach w oczach, dojedziesz roztrzęsiony i tankowanie będzie co 150km). Myślę, że jazdy testowe dużo Ci wyjaśnią. Jeśli mogę podpowiedzieć, to też też 690 na autostradę i zobacz, czy przy 120-130 km/h nie ma dla Ciebie za dużo wibracji (mi od nich drętwiały ręce, więc zakładałem PHDS i było trochę lepiej). No i kanapa - w 690/701 to jest duży temat przy dłuższych wyprawach. Na 890 spędziłem 2 tyg w Maroko i ani razu nie było problemu z siedzeniem...
Dziękuję Ci bardzo. To mi bardzo dużo mówi. Szerokości
dzisiaj wpadł mi w oko artykuł na jednej ze stron opisujących platformę 690/701 i zgadzam się ze stwierdzeniem: "motocykl został stworzony z myślą o jednodniowych wycieczkach, więc jeśli przerobisz go na motocykl turystyczny ADV i okaże się niewygodny, możesz winić tylko siebie..." - tak dokładnie, nic dodać nic ująć :)
Jestem Tobie niezmiernie wdzięczny za pamięć i dodatkowe informacje. Wykorzystam Twoją cierpliwość i zadam jeszcze jedno pytanie. O Hondzie. Znam jej ograniczenia, ale chciałbym je pominąć. Wielu ludzi na Hondzie jeździ po świecie, pewnie ze względu na zaufanie i możliwość napraw. Jednak w pewnych aspektach jest podobna do 701 ( wąska kanapa, wielkość) . Czy można zatem wysnuć wniosek, że gdybym zdecydował się pojechać Hondą w długą podróż to równie dobrze, a może i lepiej będzie mi na 690 KTM?
a o której Hondzie rozmawiamy? O CRF 300 Rally?
Thanks for the video. I have 22,000 km on my 2023 890 and like my previous 790 it has never let me down. I usually limit 400 km max between refuelling
Hey mate and this is like a cure to my soul to hear that there are trouble-free owners, as those camshaft groups are jumping on me far too often :) Happy to hear about your milage too, it is just about the same for me. Best!
Hej, jeszcze w tym roku będe kupował motocykl, najpierw mial być KTM 890 a później KTM 690. Czy wg Ciebie jest duża różnica w jeździe off road między nimi? U mnie z pewnością jest to proporcja 80 _ 20 na korzyść off. Przed sprzedażą 701 mówiłeś, że po próbach innych motocykli wracałeś do swojej 701 jak do roweru. Czy tu też jest taka różnica? Dziękuję za wszystkie filmy. Dobra robota. Pozdro. Mirek
dzięki Mirek. Jeśli faktycznie 80% czasu (lub przebiegu) będziesz spędzał w offie, to 690/701 będzie dobrym wyborem. Ja sprzedałem 701 tylko dlatego, że coraz więcej jeździłem dwupasmówkami, a czasem także z pasażerem. Wtedy 890 jest zdecydowanie lepsza niż 690/701. Ale jeśli Ty głównie jeździsz solo i w offie, to 690/701 da Ci mnóstwo frajdy. Czy między 701 a 890 jest duża różnica - w wolnych manewrach z pewnością tak, na korzyść 701. Ale jak już jadę 890 z prędkością większą niż 10km/h, to wrażenia z jazdy są zbliżone do 701. Dodam tylko, że nie jestem jakimś harpaganem w offie - jeżdżę w trasy typu TET czy ACT, czyli jest to takie offroadowanie typu adventure, a nie hard. Powodzenia w wyborach - oba motocykle są absolutnie super.
Dzięki wielkie za odpowiedź. Rób dalej filmy. Ja czekam. Pozdro
Trafiłem na ten film przypadkowo, to ostatni argument do zakupu 690 KTM . Wielkie dzięki.
Dzięki :) to 690/701 to doskonały sprzęt, będziesz miał mnóstwo frajdy (i sporo rozterek w zakresie modyfikacji ;) )
I po długich rozterkach 890 czy 690 podjąłem decyzję. Idę taką drogą jak Ty Będzie 690 KTM Enduro R. Mam dwa pytania. Czy ten hiszpański wynalazek paliwowy naprawdę zmniejszył skłonność do gaśnięcia moto na niskich obrotach. Średnio to lubię w tym moto. Czy zmiana wydechu też w tym pomaga Czy tylko jest głośniej?
@@kemirsz sorry za późną odpowiedź ale byłem trochę wyjęty z rzeczywistości. Jeśli chodzi o fuel dongle to są bardzo różne opinie. Z moich doświadczeń wynika że przy standardowym wydechu fuel dongle pomaga ale trzeba liczyć się ze wzrostem zużycia paliwa. Jeśli jednak zmienisz układ wydechowy, a zwłaszcza końcówkę wydechu, wtedy fuel dongle nie jest już potrzebny. Tylko wtedy wiadomo będzie trochę głośniej niż z fabrycznym wydechem, ale prawda jest też taka że fabryczny wydech bardzo ale to bardzo się grzeje.
Bardzo dziękuje. Bardzo mi pomogłeś, jestem Tobie niezmiernie wdzięczny. Wiem, że podjąłem najlepszą dla mnie decyzję, a Ty w dużym stopniu do tego się przyczyniłeś. Pozdrawiam serdecznie Mirek 14.09 odbieram maszynę.
Good video. I liked that you explained the fuel. It's nice to be confirmed of my own conclusions. I even went down a tooth on my drive camshaft at 15000km, and I highly recommend it, "recommended bt Chris Birch" that is what he runs on his 890. I've got 20000km now with 1/3 offroad and have not had any issues other than ones I caused myself.
Thank you! Going down a tooth on front sprocket - I will consider that. At the moment I am ultra happy with the bikes performance :) Best!
Dzięki!
Great video and I agree about the chain, mine has never needed adjustment 5000 miles amazingly
Thanks for sharing that is not only my chain, as I was quite confused with it :)
