Suspension Adjustment on the KTM 390 Adventure
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 авг 2024
- this video explains how you adjust the suspension on the KTM 390 Adventure
go to max - (clockwise) and start counting backwards - R-rebound and C- compression
recommended settings
Front - Rebound
Comfort - 20, Standard - 15, Sport - 10,
Front - Compression
Comfort - 17, Standard - 15, Sport - 10,
Rear preload - 3 clicks for full load - 10 clicks
rear rebound
Comfort - 15, Standard - 10, Sport - 5,
just remember if you want more damping its "less no of clicks" from full clockwise. more damping is more sporty but don't go so far that you start to loose feel.
for off road you want the suspension to react quicker so less damping but don't go so far that you start crashing through the stroke. if that happens start increase damping
If you're carrying more load like luggage and passenger increase your preload at the rear to prevent it from squatting at the back.

You’re the only one on RUclips who covered every aspect of the adjust-abilities on this bike
Thank you. Hope this is useful
You did a better job explaining rebound and compression than the dealer I bought this bike from!!
I guess we should show him this video. I hope this enriches your ride
Excellent, clear and concise explanation! Need more videos from you 😊
I'd got the adjustable rear shock and it made a world of difference. Now just a few days away from installing the adjustable forks, glad I found your video on how to setup. 👌🏻👍🏻
I've been looking for this information since I bought my 390, thank you so much for the quick and concise explanation!!
Thank you sir for explaining and actually demonstrating these settings. Finally a video, I've found, that is clear and straight to the point and without annoying loud music, fancy cinematic scenes and most of all in English during the whole video (instead of suddenly switching to Indian). Big thumbs and greeting from The Netherlands.
Im glad you appreciate. Im new to this. Will try to keep it clean and simple
Exactly the video I was looking for
Great explanation! Thank you! Just bought one of those.
Im sure youre having fun
Neatly explained thanks planning to buy but no idea when fingers crossed 🤞
Go for it
Many thanks for your simple and clear Information to that Subjekt !
Superb Explaination.
Thank you much needed!
Thank you so much for this, I was able to use this to help me with my rc390 - I’ve done this before on other vehicles but I was afraid of overspinning the adjuster knobs on this model because that’s easily possible on some others. This video gave me the confidence that I would feel a distinct stopping point within the clickers (I had no idea where they were set to originally) - The only thing that worries me now is that my compression knob only has 29 distinct clicks, I don’t know if I’m forgoing one counter clockwise click or one clockwise click.. I either way I feel resistance both ways after 29 clicks 🤔
Thank you for the video. Still have some doubts about the rear suspension. Perhaps, once I experiment then I will be in a better position to know what exactly I am doing.
Thank you. Good instructions.
Excellent explanation sir thanks 🙏
Thank you ❤
Thank you
Thank you sir 👍
Welcome
Very informative sachin. Great explanation. Can you confirm this statement: front full clockwise is hardest suspension. And full anti clockwise is softest?
Similarly for rear? Full anticlockwise is softest?
yes, front left full right will be hardest and anticlockwise will be the softest. the right fork will be for damping. the rear has only rebound but will affect your compression as well.
Thank you for this video.
I need your advice - i am at loss on deciding between KTM 390 adv sw and himalayan 450. i loved KTM in my spiti ride... but the himalayan has uped the ante
Only you can make that decision. Only you have to live with it.
How many clicks should we make for jumping and hard terrain, front and back? Can you write the suspension data?
@@meminkartal447 its very difficult to give a general setting data without knowing more details however i can give you a starting point.
If youre a heavier rider and feel the rear is bottoming adjust the preload to 5 or higher. if you feel its too jittery amd skipping over the smaller stuff. Soften it to 3 or lower. If you increase preload correnpondingly increase damping and reduce damping if you reduce preload
On the front start with around 17 clicks off from max to maintain a good feel of the surface. If you feel youre bottoming out too much come back to about 15 or even lower, but if you increase damping too much youll also loose the feel. I would set it for feel and grip and modify my riding rather than set it too hard for the jumps and hits and sacrifice feel everywhere else
I'm having KTM adv 250 2022, Is it possible to for me to front stock suspension with the adjustable suspension ??
@@blazechat yes
Can all adjustment be done with the bike on side stand only? Cause i saw video that the tire should be lifted up when adjusting the suspension? Thanks.
You can adjust it with the bike on the side stand
@@sachinchavan1704Thanks for the reply
hello sir can we upgrade this on our existing 390 adv 2021 model?
in service center
In theory we can. The components are a straight swap. However the bike has just been launched. And generally most manufacturers take some time to make these available for retail or over the counter supply. If a new vehicle equipped with this fork meets with an accident and the fork needs to be replaced, the dealer can get it immediately. If really interested you could try placing an order with a dealer maybe with a little advance money and keep the rest of us posted
@@sachinchavan1704 got both rear and front adjustable suspension fitted on my standard 390 adventure :)
Only channel explaining the upgrades. Rest r just interested in blabbering
Sir Aap Na Channel Best Logo Dalo Ham Ko Acha Nhi Lagta Hay 😊🥰
