Great review thanks… I pick mine up next weekend!
Thank you Peter 😊
Very cool mate, great times ahead. Loved the SAS. Enjoy! Cheers 🍻
Great review!
Cheers Pete, glad you liked it. 🍻
Hey Rev-viewers!
So excited for you to see this one. Had a great time making this video. What an incredible machine!! In its market excellent value for money too.
Any questions about the bike guys just let me know.
Plus many many more videos on the way. Any requests?
If you enjoyed the video please give it a like as that really helps with the RUclips stuff 😀
i know I'm kinda off topic but do anybody know of a good site to watch new series online ?
@Gabriel Johnny Flixportal xD
@Miller Konnor thank you, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :D I really appreciate it!!
@Gabriel Johnny No problem =)
They now offer a shorter-turn throttle sensor as a PP. I'll be having that if I get one.
Great option :)
Great review.👍🏻
Thank you Ben, much appreciated. Cheers 🍻
@@Revviews a pleasure mate. I brought my KTM SAS 6 months ago.. tried it against all the competition. In my opinion it’s was heads above all else. I cam from a long GS background, best move I made in years. You described it perfectly. You have another subscriber. 👍🏻
@Ben Kelly Yeah I really liked the SAS, 100% would have one in the dream stable. The engine is just awesome. Thanks again. Cheers 🍻
Great review! Now can you do similar to multistrada v4s?
Hello mate, I can certainly ask for you 😉
That would complete the line up of recent reviews.
Thanks!
Go on big lad!!!! 💪 best video you've done yet mate, well played fella!! Busa??? Please!!
Lol, you beat me to the comments.
Thank you buddy, appreciated dude 🙏
Oh I hope I will do the Busa very soon for you mate. We have lots coming up now.
Sweet Lamb in Wales do a 790R O/R course. :)
LOL, I'll see what I can sort out. Might be an MT-09 or MT-07 next.
Please do the 1290 ADV R next !!
Hello mate. Sure I'll see if I can sort that for you buddy. Cheers 🍻
Very nice! Not keen on the windshield. Crawley? Thats near to where am getting my first bike. (Horley).
P.s Will def visit P and H is it? When I get my first service done next spring prob.
Yeah that's it P&H Motorcycles, great place. Loads of bike brands and clothing.
@@Revviews Will be down at some point!
Hi Rev views, i just want to ask how is the high speed stability of the bike, do you experience any wobble or headshake on high speed runs?
Hi Geovannie, firstly thanks for watching. Being honest I didn't take the bike into the very high speeds however I did take it up to national speed limits so 70mph range and it offered good protection and was very stable. Hope that helps. Cheers 🍻
The fuel cap was "electronic", keyless, on the previous version too.
Yep, mainly for those who might not know KTM that well. I try to cover as much as I can. but still difficult to remember it all lol.
@@Revviews 👍
great bike and great rev-view
i want this bike
thanks for the vid
Thank you mate, I appreciate that and really pleased you liked the video. Lots more coming. Hope to see you back here soon. Anything you want to see let me know and I'll try to make it happen. Cheers 🍻
@@Revviews i see you do cars also
would you be able to do the 2021 Jeep Wrangler either one of the overland, rubicon or the sport-s ?
cheers from aussie
@@ocfpvii8258 OK mate ill see what I can do. Cheers 🍻
hi handsome. i love your intro music. more of it please. i have a question- do you recommend this bike? i love when you get excited -woohooo-. more of that woohoo and while you're at it,an opera melody. what fo you eat and drink during your videos? please show the shops you dine at. show the gas station and price per gallon. also wear an airbag vest. ride safe.
Morning and thank you friend. Pleased you liked the video and yes 100% recommend the Super Adventure S. Massively impressed by the bike. Oh Trust me you don't want to hear me sing 😆
I'll keep working hard to bring you even more content.
Cheers 🍻
Do you think this would be suitable for someone who has mainly ridden sports bikes in the past or would the super duke gt be a better bet?
Hi Paul,
Will depend I what you want to use for a bit. It handles far better than I had initially thought but of course very different to a sports bike. The Duke GT will definitely have the more sportier ride but the trade off will be the Adventure S will be ahead for Touring. Both are great choices. If local to Crawley contact P&H and I believe they have both to try. Could do a back to back test? Hope that helps.
Good review!....2 questions, are the brakes linked and does the panniers clip on or do you need rails?
Hello mate. Brakes are linked although you can adjust the settings and turn off the rear ABS and adjust slippage for off road. As far as I know you need the rails for panniers, two options/versions you can choose from on the bike builder for luggage. Hope that helps. Cheers 🍻
Do the settings (ride modes, suspension) reset when u turn the bike off?
Hello mate. On my ride yes when I changed the modes in the walk n talk section of this video I left it in the rain position when cycling through, powered off and when I restarted the bike the settings were as I left them and I actually put it back into Sport on the video before riding off again. Not sure if it has a long term memory though being honest. If you have a dealer near you take one of these out, such good fun. Cheers 🍻
17:11 Beautiful P5.
Beautiful
You own the bike I want to buy and you test drive the competitor I also want hahaha
Wich of the two u prefer and why
I am 2 meters tall and 140 kg and love the sound of the xr and its looks but the ktm is also on my list
The choice is difficult to make
Low end torque vs high revs
I loved the video and keep it up,drive safe
Haha thank you Roy, appreciate that mate. Yeah honestly it's a tough one, I really am thinking of getting the KTM. Here's what I believe to be the truth, the XR probably has the edge on handling, but mainly at track type level. However you also need to be in that perfect range to get the most out of it. Whereas the KTM has superhero power from 3k rpm that will make you grin stupidly each time. The XR is more of a sportsbike for taller people and the KTM is a good middle ground between sporty and tourer without feeling too heavy. KTM wins by miles on comfort though, mainly due to the XRs seat. I have a feeling you might enjoy the KTM more overall. Have you got both dealers types near you? Cheers 🍻
@@Revviews yes I have dealers nearby,is it worth it to mention the misses also companies me on occasions
Not to many times but she loves to go along for some tours here in the Netherlands
I'm no track driver and only drive on asphalt
Thank you for the reply
I appreciate it
Keep it up,and for now u have a new follower
@@R36_black_diamond Then yeah the KTM is 100% better if you are having a pillion. Just overall space and comfort. Thank again mate and look forward to hearing more from you. I'll keep working hard on the channel 💪
@@Revviews I will tell you which one it's gonna be when I figured it out hahaha
I will keep you updated
The difference will be huge
Coming from a triumph tiger 1050 🙈🤣
Nice and interesting review. But you say several times those are Stylema calipers, and they are not. They are the same as those that were mounted on the previous model.
Hi Fabien, yep my bad on that. Hope you liked the review as a whole. Thanks.
@@Revviews Oh sure, I enjoyed your review a lot. I own the previous model of the bike, and have already ordered the new one. There is one thing I would have added (but that's personal and maybe nobody would agree on that): despite its branding, the S Adv S should be considered in a broader realm than just the adventure range of bikes. Three years ago, I couldn't make my mind between the SAS and the Superduke R, and I went through the same hesitation this year, but ended up picking the SAS. Again. Because I know the fun it can give to me on ANY road, and also the sheer efficiency of the thing. For me, it is an incredible Sport Tourer, with the a strong point to be made on both these items. Incredibly good at sports, incredibly good at touring. The only downside could be the weight (and the wearing of the front tyre in my case), but it's the lighter in its category, and even on the 'old' one, weight was never an issue. My overall feeling could be compared to the one of the excellent MotoVibes YT channel: the guy gives his impressions oif the exact same bike, and I fully agree with him. And all of this sports and touring goodness comes with the added benefit of a long travel suspension: you don't even need to think about what the road is going to look like after the next corner, you can/could trash it around if you felt like), you can climb curbs like if they were nothing, and of course you can continue when roads turn into trails. Incredible bike. I'm quite thrilled that they have improved the fueling, and solved (it seems) the heat problem: I live in France and sometimes, it could be an issue in the traffic (my current model is a '17, with no insulating on the rear header). So yes, it is a Sport Tourer. And it could also be seen as the best 'Adventure' bikes, depending on your personal taste. As you pointed out, this is also a matter of personal preference, and I totally get that people would rather pick the GS because they like the overall feeling of the bike, the shaft transmission and so on. That makes sense. Cheers.
@@fabiena1787 Hi Fabien, yep completely agree with you. In fact most bikes today are suitable for a variety of roads. Just for ease I have to at least say the class it's in as that's what people type when they search so it's about how the video gets found. Otherwise the YT black hole swallows up the video lol. But I found this bike to amazing overall. I can say what it's like offroad but it could definitely replace my S1000XR and it was massively more comfortable, for me at least. And the engine of the KTM was just so easy to use, I'm mean a real pleasure compared with hopping through gears all the time just to get moving again like on my bike.
The channel is still very new and I'm working hard to keep improving all the time. It's a tough world out there on social media and you can't please everyone even if you don't make any mistakes as someone will still not be impressed or take offence but I'm pleased you liked this mate and hope to keep making videos you enjoy. I'll keep working hard too.
Out on a big GSA today.... 👀
Thanks mate cheers 🍻
@@Revviews You should enjoy the GSA as well. Still in lockdown regime for one day here in France, but at least I've got the MotoGP ;-) All the best to your YT channel. I just subscribed ;-)
@@fabiena1787 thanks mate appreciated and stay in touch buddy. Always good to get advice you know. It's the 40th GSA for today. Will hopefully up for next Friday. Enjoy the Moto GP buddy. Cheers 🍻
Nice review, thanks. How do you find the comfort compared to a GS/GSA? I test rode the GSA last week and found the riding/handlebar position gave me shocking neck and shoulder pain. I’m not 100% sure but I think part of it is reach to the bars and part of it is bar width, I have no such issues on my Harley Road King. I’m 6’4” with broad shoulders, how big are you in comparison?
Hello mate. Thank you friend. I'm 6ft4 also. Hard to say really. Very close but maybe the GSA on comfort for me, but only slightly but the SAS was the sportier bike by some margin I would say. A GS would be far closer due to the 20 ish KG drop in weight. Cheers 🍻
@@Revviews Thanks for the reply. I’m going on a test ride of this bike but from what you say I might find this uncomfortable too, maybe I’m just not designed for adventure bikes. I believe the bars are narrower than the GS/GSA though so you never know.
@@Snerkler1 see how it goes on your test ride. Once both done you will know. Between the two for me I would choose the SAS as it was sportier and just a hoot to ride. Proper fun. Test ride will let you know which one for sure. Both excellent machines.
@@Revviews yeah, the GSA was great it was just the comfort thing (not helped by having fibromyalgia), I’d have bought one if it wasn’t for that. I’m actually test riding the K1600 and R1250RT as well to see if I’m more suited to that kind of ergonomics (obviously I’ll need to lower the pegs). Fingers crossed I can find something to suit, I’m not prepared to give up biking yet 🤞🏻
@@Snerkler1 OK very cool 😎. Keep us posted on what you go for mate. I. Sure you will fin the right one. Also remember seat choices as there are loads of options that might just solve a problem. Cheers 🍻
Good review 👍 do you do yamaha bikes as well
Thank you 😀
Yes we have Yamaha partners so the plan will be many more bike reviews coming up.
Which one did you have in mind and I'll see what I can do?
Cheers
@@Revviews tracer 900 if you have one
@@beastlyplays2554 OK buddy I'll see what I can do. Cheers 🍻
Tracer 9 GT 😃
@@bobnorman1000 Hi Bob, ok mate, I'll see what I can do. Cheers
A great thing with these software options is that you can add them as you can afford them later, if you don't have the money initially. :)
Forward thinking, I like it.
I wonder if it heats too much and is it ok to commute in the city? I have f900xr and I'm quite happy with it especially mostly in the city. Do you think it would worth to upgrade it to that bike?
Hey Gorkem,
Not sure tbh, power wise you will definitely have much power and it would be so nice for commuting on. In the UK don't think the heat will be an issue. Where are you from?
@@Revviews I'm from Istanbul/Turkey. We have 4 seasons here. F900xr is a great bike for many purposes. I don't have so much time for big trips, only for short daily trips I can do so that's why I chose it and I'm actually happy with my choice. It's not heating in the traffic so much. The thing is that bike looks great :) Just wonder if that would be suitable for me or not. I did a test ride of 1050 way before and the heating from the seat was unbearable and I heard Ktm bikes are quite famous for their heating engines with all this hp. I also wonder if it's the same or not for this bike?
@@gorkemakdag8759 OK cool gotcha. Agreed you have a great machine already. Hard so say, but they made modifications to the radiators and have a dual design and on the day of filming it was warm weather wise and I couldn't feel heat from the engine. However I wasn't in much traffic either. If you like it try one out and you will know for sure. But I reckon you will love it. Man, its so good 👍
@@Revviews Many thanks for your comments. Have a safe ride 👍
@@gorkemakdag8759 you too brother 🍻
Suspension Pro option gives you the anti-dive and auto levelling for £250.
Good shout 👍
Motorway\ cruising: vibey anywhere?
Hello mate, only did a small amount of dual carriageway but it seemed very smooth to me. Think they addressed that with a new overdrive in 6th gear for the 2021 model year. Honestly, I loved it. Can you get a demo on one near you?
@@Revviews I contacted PH ;-)
Heated seats FTW! :)
100%. Such a great machine. Surpassed my expectations massively.
@@Revviews I've had one since 2017 with 30k km (would be much more, thanks C19!) and't it's been incredible, I have to see if I can get a go on one of these, it looks like all the things I wanted have now been added/fixed - other than an auto-clutch (which I installed on mine) and an electric motor. :)
@@eubikedude between us I tried the 2021 BMW GSA at the weekend and for me personally I much preferred the KTM. Eyes have been opened for sure.
My height is 162 cm can I ride this bike
Hi Paul,
I would think so as you can lower the seat and there and lots of options to assist. Best thing would be visit a dealer and throw a leg over to make sure. Cheers 🍻
They let you take a new bike out and put 30, 40, 50 miles on it? Wow, not happening in the States
Hi Rob, yeah I hear ya. Was registered as a demo bike so hopefully it helps them sell bikes. Plus free marketing which is a bonus. Cheers 🍻
@@Revviews Can't argue with that. Sound marketing policy, peanuts for advertising cost 👍
which competitors are more expensive? beacuse i don't see any
Spec for spec Ducati and BMW. Cheers 🍻
Bougth a new one last week. Hey KTM 8 hours in my hands then
1. Engine Broken
2. Computer failure
3. Suspension failure
KTM After 8 Hours of ownership my 22K motorbike is at P&D Milano Italy the dealer. They dont say nothing.
I am waiting. Hey KTM Are you serious? KTM Are you serious a 22K bike 8 HOURS?.
Nobody i able to say what hapened?
KTM Are you a serious company?
Hi Paolo, sorry to hear that. Sounds like a wild 8 hours. I'm sure KTM will sort it for you.
hi Paolo.
do you have an update for us about your bike ?
because what happened to your bike is very serious as many people want to buy this bike.
after reading your comment i did some research and i have found a similar thing has happened to previous super adventure models.
at least if KTM gives you a new bike its ok, if not ?
i hope they solve this problem for you and i hope to hear from you soon
the brakes are not very-very good. they are fine. but a bit spongy early. weakest part of the bike.
Ok Mak 👍
they are not stylema calipers.
Hi Tan, yep hands up. ✋. Thanks.
Bet this bike is great to ride, its looks make me want to puke though.
Yeah I know what you mean but trust me in person it's dope. Plus the ride is so good.
