- 8 September 2013 Cuz Tree weekend. Playing with KTM 1190 ADV R (Off-road version) on the road - HOW GOOD THE REALY IS? This is the answer ;-)
NOTE: Standard bike with Acra slip-on only and standard on/off-road tyres.
It's all about the rider, the 22 is not for sisies , the rider is very competent and can clearly ride, but still a way of the pace of some of the superbikes that do that 22 in 8min , still for an Adventure bike its amazing, nice video mate enjoyed it.
Good to finally see what its like on the road. Everyone bangs on about what its like off road!!
Don't think I will ever ride mine like that, but was fun to see what you can do with this bike. Nice riding.
1:58 I thought he was falling..very capable bike. good riding..
Best bike ever made
This is why I need one of these bikes in my life. Going to look for one in the upcoming months. Thnaks for the awesome video
that's it. i'm getting one of those
Sport mode with traction and ABS on. Really grate bike, you will enjoy it!
Wow!! That was some butt rush. Nice riding my friend.
a bit of a moment there at 7:35 ?
Love this bike... anyone been on a racetrack with this offroad setup?
Excellent driving, excellent machine, excellent road.
Mighty fine riding sir!
You're really a bad ass driver,I wish I would drive with you on my Sunday free time.
That is one badass fucking ride! Life in the fast lane on a great road with no limits.
The picture of the bike at the very beginning shows it with street tires. It would've been nice to see he tires after the ride to show that they were the stock knobby tires.
This bike really is amazing!
Man your putting that ktm through her paces...lol
Yeah he did. I can't imagine what all those guys were thinking when an adventure bike just flew by em?! Lol. I'm really impressed with this machine. From what I've seen online it's actually real off road capable too!
Yeah AkDeluxeRider I agree, they must have been thinking .. Holy damn .. I've been thinking of what I would want for my 2nd main bike, been looking at videos of these.. I love the split nature.. Although I doubt I would drag my balls on the back of the bike as hard as this guy ...
Haha, I still can't wrap my head around an Adventure bike hitting the curves that hard and that low! Of course I've never owned or ridden one with multiple ride settings and 140-150hp either! This would make a mighty fine addition!
Oh yes .. Check out my latest post..
F*ck yea!! Amazing rider & machine, I'm definitely gettin' me one of these, with fraction of your skill, I still would be a very happy man 😀
But please ride safe bro (you're too damn quick!)
I live in Wales where the roads are less forgiving. These roads are wide and the bends are really gentle and most bikes would be quick. Try the Black Mountains in Wales or the Alps with switch backs then you see the skill of the ride and the best of the bike. Anyone can ride fast open roads and they are a joy to ride but it does not involve a lot of skill or ask questions of the bikes ability
You would be surprised how good this bike is and even easier when the roads go even tougher and less forgiving. I agree, this road was faster and more flowing and this was the point, because it should suite the superbikes better. Everywhere else this bike exceed the expectation.
I think you are a lot faster than your friends! Even the regular 1190 adventure couldn't keep up with you, and it has street tires and (I think) better road gearing!
Is this in South Africa? I never knew Africa had such beautiful evergreen forests.
It's the rider, not the horse.
in really tight corners the regular 1190 with the 19" front will pull away ... but lets be honest here as with all high powered bikes the abilities of the bike usually go way beyond of what the rider is capable so in most situations you wont really be slower with the R
ocharni Hi! There was a 1190 with 19" front behind me! (y)
ɷɷɷɷ Heeyy Friends I Have Foundd W0rikingg Online Hacck visittt : - t.co/x2DTPZeob8
I have been wondering how well the 21" front handles in ET . Trackday tomorrow with mine exciting times , best bike i have ever owned..
No problem! I was on the off-road tyres anyway ;-)
Great ride! And an awesome bike ;)
what tyres?
Awesome riding mate! Have you ridden the standard Adventure on the road? How does it compare to the Adventure R? Cheers
excellent
great thanks what mode where you running in race or road awsome bike mine is coming soon
I want one!
Piękne to jest !
g
Great vid at fantastic riding. I will be testing the standard adventure next week but I am still in doubt to get the r.. this vid added to that .. 😁
Just a question, what is the switch on the inside of your left handlebar for?
Thanks for the comment! R is a grate bike and very versatile.The switch on the left is for the Go-Pro Cam.
Thx
Not as fast as a superbike, but not a bad time for a adventure bike....
Did anyone else see the elephant about a third the way into the video? Man that was close!!
The road is fantastic! What road is it?
What music is at the beginning? Thanks.
Awesome roads
Hi! great video! Is it true that at high speed (180km/h) the bike is unstable with the lateral cases (plastic and alluminium, not full alluminium cases)? I am thinking of buying one of these :)
I didn't have this problems but i do change the setup for the high speed and off-road riding. It's very easy to do, even on the go. I normally go 4-6 +clicks on the compression and 2-4+ on the rebound what makes the front harder and more planted on the road. Rear as well needs 2-3 turns (big adjuster under the seat only) to stiffen and it will help with good feel of the front and the bike is ready to go fast ;-) All of the above you can do it on the run not even slowing down. Only time i had the problems with the front is when the top pinier was installed on the bike but even then with the suspension setup right i manged 246km/h on the clocks but the bike was a little unstable :-P
only in south africa can you ride this speed because the cops dont care
The last time I tried to ride to like that on my BMW adventure I flipped it end over end,,, video to prove
My next bike. If it ain't orange it's a lemon 😂
lol! my next bumper sticker...
Or even the Metzler I mean. Need a set of k3 metz for roads like that lol
what tires you have
Read through old comments, please 👍
@@pietkun007 to complicate for me, I ask only for tyres, since I must bay now one for that bike....
@@stbtaxi4203 you'll need a tyre that can handle fast riding at 100+mph and high lean angles like this video but still have dirt capability. most knobby type tires have a speed limit around 85-100mph. even new tkc rocks has speed rating of only 112mph...4th gear... :-). need v or w speed rating. continental trail attack 3 speed rating 149mph :)
@@jonasbaine3538 I yast bay dunlop meridian
Original Metzlers! They are only 10-20% off-road tires!
bravoooo
brilliant rider or reckless twat? Bit of both, methinks.
Still, a cracking video.
Dude, ride safe[r]!
I wiped out my bmw in may going around the corner too fast amd hit gravel. Check it out on my channel. Thats pretty impressive for off road tires
Yikes!!! @ 7;38
excellent video proving that the adventure 1990 can be very very sporty with an awesome rider.......but the video was fucked up at the end with that stupid president touching and spoiling ktm's publicity.
1190
it was great up until the very end....Then you ruined the video!
