All the dislikes are Gs riders😅😅
i had a bmw r1200 Rallye and now i have a KTM 1290 Super Adventure S. They are diferent bikes, ktm it´s faster and more fun to drive, but bmw it´s much more comfortable, has better brakes, more stability at high speed, so your desicion will depend on what are you looking for a bike to have.
Also, BMW has 136 hp, KTM has 160 hp, i think you feel the differences
in 2022 all of that has change the ktm is far superior
Stability has alot to do with the size of the rider and if running a back box etc. The stock screen on the KTM is dreadful and will cause buffeting for all but the smallest riders. Get a PUIG screen and its sorted.
Better brakes on bmw ?? 😂😂😂
@@ajmf-hy8qt it’s not. The build quality of a ktm is garbage, The switch gear is cheap the layout is rubbish . Yes the power is far better but the ride quality and build quality is miles behind bmw. Btw I own a 2 week old gs but I fully intended on a super adventure first.
Nice, but I prefer a R1250GS over a KTM 1290. If I want something fast, than I will choose a different kind of motorcycle. :-)
Me too~!!!
Nice ktm1290 rules.
Good luck with your 🐄 😂
@@orteneger Same for you dude. Have a nice day.
@@ipadrom 😬👍🏻
People just don’t understand how epic that KTM motor is. When the fuel pump is working that is
lmao
For real.

@666 Dual Sport smart
GS fuel pump isnt so clever & the drive shaft is a total Joke
I have a 1250GSA and has had a KTM 1290 Super Adventure -16
Both are really good motorcycles

I miss the KTM engine :-(
I bet you don't miss the high Centre of gravity
@@BMWGSadventures Yep. So KTM fixed it. Utterly FIXED in the 2021. Low tanks. Lowered motor. Extended swing arm. Shortened reach to handlebars. Just enjoy YOUR GS.
@@tomtraynor5384 My issue is the reliability and the lack of any actual KTM Australia head office so if you need help you’re only luck is with the importers
@@tomtraynor5384 can I forgive them for the 20 years of making them wrong though? I like the styling of the BMW better and the resell is at least 50% more
@@BMWGSadventures
I think the resell stats will change fast for the new KTM 2021 models.
That's what matters on an adventure bike, roll-ons!
... especially handy in Mongolia.
It sure matters when you pay that amount of money...for bragging rights.
You don't need that power, but always nice to be able to brag about it ;)
😂 that's hilarious... The KTM destroys the BMW offroad as well
No wonder that people say that GS feels more "planted" 🤣
Looks like Front wheel on KTM is in the air most of the time!
My 2021 1290 SAS picks the front wheel up in third.
@@Eric-Marsh It is not different than mine then. 😁
It was designed that way lol. You can’t ride a KTM on two wheels only on one.
@@DoorKnob890 Well, you can. But what's the point?😂
Now let’s do a test on a twistie mountain road who’s faster😜 both are great bikes! But in corners I prefer my 1250 on a straight 1290 eats a 1250 though!
Thats been done, not by any means professional, the Ktm was out doing in and out of corners.
I love the Gs its a great bike, but just abit of fun to see how they stack up alongside each other
Going to have alot more videos of the two bikes over the course of this year.

Dreaming Buddy! the KTM eats the GS in any location. and yes ive had both and love them equally!
@@Offtrackroadadventures Yup, I do own a 2016 1290 SA (T), and its chassis is amazing, I am a regular dude and I can take my bike to the mountain twisties in high speed easily, scrapping my footpegs.
You’ll have same result
Had three different ktm's wonderful machines but tooooo many problems . Not much better with bmw . Ill stick with my slow reliable tenere
Be proud of your Tenere ownership, proven reliability from a top Japanese brand.
Very wise decision.
I must admit, even though I don't have big issues, small ones I had with 1250 GSA made me wonder if I made a mistake not taking S10. Hope Yamaha modernise it a bit and manage to sell it again in the EU. Always good to have such options, especially when one see how well they made Tenere 700.
you might wanna google BMW GS drive shaft & fuel pump problems they aren't better than KTM & Just living on bs PR
@@sprocket-YT those problems are fixed. Considering the huge number of GS I meet on the road, I'd say most of them are doing just fine.
And then there is dealership network. I feel better riding one knowing there is a service in every town (and there really is, at least in Europe, where I ride).
Now do a race to check valve clearances! :)
Bmw valve check interval is 12k miles. KTM is 18k miles. ;)
@@ohgodwhat1 true but it takes 15 mins on the bmw with some chopsticks and a stick of chewing gum. ;)
@@NotFromConcentrate When you only have to do it nearly every 20k miles that's irrelevant IMO.
@@WilliamStewart1 first off I was making a lighthearted joke. But if we want to get serious I respectfully disagree. Im a KTM owner but the cost or time to do a valve clearance check is not insignificant no matter the interval. I would much rather spend one hour doing it than all day...actually for me in my shop a weekend. For the boxer you can do a valve clearance check on the side of the road with tools in your pack versus tearing the bike down. My opinion of course you are entitled to your own. Peace
@@NotFromConcentrate Eh. These bikes are all pretty good. BArely any difference really.
And don't forget to clean, adjust and lube your chain before hand. 1-1😉
I do mine every 1k kilometers. It's not a problem really.
R1250GS: 136hp
1290SA: 165hp
Wonder who’d win a 4th gear pull🧐
160
6th gear roll-off would be really interesting with the shift-cam
The GS won we did it
If only ktm have shaft drive with 30 ltr gas tank it'll beat the whole god damn motorcycle adventure there is...
Damn right it would
I was getting fed up with this. Bought both 😂
The KTM will destroy the BMW in ANY test!
Not on comfort.
@@RUclipsrngajelas buy a car of you want comfort.
It will certainly be the fastest to need a recovery truck
@@RUclipsrngajelas not on reliability - the gs has been around for 40 years - its a far superior motorcycle - the test was dumb - apples and oranges
Not on sales figures
Remind me again why this matters? You’re on adventure bikes, riding on the road, in a straight line, you accelerate as fast as possible, and that’s supposed to mean something? I don’t get it? Why not take the bikes off road (what adventure bikes were made to do) and test your riding skills. Any chimpanzee can be trained to twist the throttle on a MC and ride in a straight line. That measures nothing. Oooo, I’m going to run out a buy one bike vs another because one can go a bit faster in a straight line than the other. A no value video...ridiculous.
Dude, you sound like a GS owner that is butthurt. I mean, you are right, but no need to explode like this.
@@ExtremeDeathman yea sounds a little too butt hurt for no reason
@@ExtremeDeathman 😀😀😀😀 don' t be ENVY boy
@@danniculescu3465 ktm is the best on trails and off-road though also biggest power plant, more enjoyable to ride, cheaper, better specs than those you mentioned and from what I’m seeing from many reviews and my own the ktm is more reliable and nicer to live with not to mention cheaper! 😆
Lmfaooooooo Paul! Who pissed in your cheerios that morning?
Ride your ride dude, if someone wants to track an R1250GS, that's their choice! If someone wants to drop a superduke off a cliff, let them. Go ride yours how you want to ride it - or don't. You're probably just a salty 15 year old 😂
And who has the most sold and ridden bike in the world??? Oh that’s right it’s the BMW! wonder why that is? I’m sure the KTM has lots of positive points and a lots of people who like it. Just because it’s faster (more power) it does not make it superior.
Maybe ‘cause the BMW makes the rider feel safer, you needs hands for the 1290, it's not a beginner's bike
Superior is in the eye of the beholder. Just depends on what you're looking for.
@@Eric-Marsh think you have that mixed up with “Beauty”, I understand what you mean though. Still think the KTM is far from superior, it’s just “different”.
@@Maggieismydogno, I meant superior. It depends on one's criteria. Based on my criteria the KTM is the superior bike.
1290 for short rides, 1250 for long rides
Not surprising. KTM makes a beast of all sorts of bikes.
Not sure about the reliability
Idk, mine has 45k on it, and seen several others listed with 30k+
@@bennybouken I had a 2008 SMC 690 for 2 years, got ~14000 km on it, tried to "break" it every time i rode it, after 2 years a mechanic said the piston is still like a new one. Lost 6 tires, my exhaust tip had turned blue almost all over (top speed runs for 5-10 mins at a time) but nothing ever broke. Ofc the EXC & SMR are diff machines, but at that, still the best..
I've got a GS 1250 Adventure and an S1000XR, the 1250 has all the power anyone needs in any situation in real world riding, yes I like the XR it's fantastic, it's 165 BHP like the ktm, but I don't go any faster on it than I do on the GS, I want to keep my license thanks
I think that of my 75hp sv650, hell even my sh300i scooter is fast enough for 99% on public roads
You're either a ktm guy or a GS guy. I personally wouldn't ride a ktm for the same reason I wouldn't buy a Ducati or a Harley.
BMW is in the same bucket, actually.
Hmmm strange test. It has no meaning to compare in this way. The gear ratio of the two bike is different, and also to use the same revv start pointing is wrong as the two engine have different characteristics. In any case the balance between engine, frame, usability of the bmw is the reason why lots of bikers love it. Not the pure performance of an engine, but the combined performance of a bike+ the biker.... That's the point of the GS. PS: do you think BMW is not able to do a 160HP twin engine.....?!?! Again, this is not what bmw and gs lovers want in a bike
The ktm literally out performs the bmw in power, suspension, brakes, rider aids, etc. Its just a better bike. The GS is a great bike but the KTM has it beat. On paper and in the real world.
Adventure bikes doing drag races, what a concept!
Sold my KTM and bought the BMW. Best decision I ever made!
Sold my BMW and bought the KTM. It was a great decision. :)

@@Kaysersoza So, I got an aftermarket comfort low seat from Touratech...and when my butt gets a little warm, I stand up and cool it off. I now have 450 miles on it and absolutely love it. Already had the key not in range issue. KTM Service Tech told me to put it where the phone goes and I won't have that issue again.
@@mikesampont6091 good.. nice bike 👍👍
Two different bikes with very good specs both of them, but as we all know if you buy a BMW and you want to sell it after 5 years it still has a good price... why because the brand BMW has a name and it keeps the value very good... I'm not saying which bike is better or worst... there are two great bikes in my opinion and the video is nice as well... but in the end for adventure bikes is not really important which one has the faster acceleration :) Enjoy the ride!
Thank you for the comments
The Triumph was easily the best! 😂
A fireblade will beat the KTM ! What’s your point ??
Wow what a comment 😂🤦🏻♂️
Certainly lots more to consider than roll on speed. That said Id like to see this done with the new Harley PA. It’s closer to the KTM than it is the KTM in respects to HP.
Two totally different bikes... One is for long travel and has a good ability to go off road if needed and then the other one is a very powerful dirt bike and cheaper at the same time... I chose the more behaved stallion instead of the goat ktm. Don't laugh or get mad I first test rode a 1290 and then bought the 1250... Always wanted a KTM since the 990 with the Dakar paint scheme was out... but I wanted the Caddy of adv bikes... Cheers nice video there my friend...
I did it the otherway round, took the 1250gs for a tesr ride for a day, I found it lacked the punch. Still cant knock the bike for what it is.
@@Offtrackroadadventures for what its worth the KTM offers more bike for your money hands down but when you add all the farkles you may want on it, it's pretty close to the BMW and then you have lost cause of the quality for whats offered by the German lady...
6th gear roll on at 100km/h the gs wins up to about 160km'h, even fully loaded 2 up v unloaded single. plus the new ones can be boosted by the dealers up to 180 ft torque, do not underestimate the gs, you have been warned
And the KTM is more fun to ride, more capable off-road and more affordable
It Aldo looses its value quite quickly. It has poorer build quality, it's less reliable, it sips more fuel, it's less comfortable, and harder do find parts ant to work on
@@vascovot I have owned 6 GS's and 2 KTM's 1190 and 1290. The cost of ownership of the BMW's was substantially more because service in general on BMW's is more. I don't think I would refer to either the GS or the KTM as comfortable.....not compared to a Road Glide Special. These adventure bikes were designed as exactly that, adventure. The GS cannot come close to the KTM off road, it does not perform as well on road and has a higher cost of ownership. Here in the US BMW dealers are about as scarce as KTM dealers so finding parts is about equal. I don't have an allegiance to any brand, I own Harleys. KTM's, Yamaha's, Husky's and more. I have owned probably 50 bikes from all brands. These opinions are from my personal experiences and not due to me being a fanboy of the bike I currently own. For pure fun factor the KTM far surpasses the GS IMHO.
I don’t understand why to compare in speed terms. For that reason take an r instead these ones. A gs is for travelling, when ktm makes a moto with cardan and telelever..then the rest could compite.
Dont worry about it
I finally found you from when you was off-roading and you guys fell down the hill
Brilliant u found it👍get yourself and your mates to subscribe, we will be round your neck of the woods again, might catch u again
Ktm 1290 is best motor
6th gear bmw inched forward
And lets be honest, that's where we are at most of the time...
160 hp vs 134 hp.....I'm sure the outcome was pretty obvious before the race. BMW still the better bike tho
If it didn't considering the power difference you be feeling pretty ripped off. Never seen a KTM with over 300000ks without a rebuild though 🤔
I had one with 70K miles when I sold it (990 Adventure R) and it's still on the road. I also had 2 GSs that were proved, both, to be lemons! My story is on AdvRider. The last GS, grenaded the engine at 20K kms (not miles, kilometers)! I'm pushing my bikes to their limits and KTMs have been, so far, a lot more reliable for the pieces that count (for example...the engine!). Now if you ride like a grandma BMW is certainly a viable option!
Bruh this bike is faster then most super sport bikes. Wtf you doing racing a gs in a straight line 😂
160 ps more than 136 ps. Whaaooo. Where is the surprise? 😆
yes!! Usually this kind of chase are for little ENVY child. STUPID COMPARISION FOR ENVY people. For people that feels inferior. CHEERS from ITALY, the place of charme, and where ktm sell 290 bike in a year. And where GS (std and adv) sell 6400 bike for year.
@@Kaysersoza Nope. GREAT illustration: Roll on started from 3000 rpm. GS got beaten like a bratty step child in both races and both 3rd and 4th gears. I hated my test ride in a gs-so what I do is try to talk everyone out of one. NO. No I don’t. They are good bikes. You ride what you like. I’ll ride what I love.
@@tomtraynor5384 No, it's not a great test. The specs are not matched up and noone would wonder which bikes accelerates the best...just read the specs.
It would be just as interresting question as to ask which bikes has the highest top speed...the KTM 390 Duke or the Yamaha R1...it's just not comparable! THAT is the point...both are great bikes, both are big adventure bikes, but they aim for two very different set of riders
Im sure the KTM is a great bike in its own way, just like the GS. I have a 1250GSA, and I’ll stick with it for now. I dont like the design of the KTM. It has lots of potential, but Im not lovin the looks as it is today! Maybe the next one.
Ktm is fully superior ti the GS 👌💪💪💪💪
Sure is
because its faster ? I will race that Ktm with my s1000rr but its not going to prove anything - the gs is the standard of adv motorcycles by far
PLEASE make one vs V4S Multi
Ur gonna be surprised......i will get one up asap....subscribe to not miss this!
@@Offtrackroadadventures ruclips.net/video/TqNYxIAGzQo/видео.html
KTM design is aggressive however adventures bikes are not built for speed but for comfortable ridding & enjoying on and off roads.
I am still happy with my BMW GSA 1250 and will buy one more Pan America that just launched.
KTM is better off road than BMW and is much lighter with a lower CG. BMW is slightly comfier but the KTM will get you where you need to go much quicker - everyone likes quicker.
Some people (like me) love the speed of a sport bike but don’t like the riding position, this is where the 1290SAS or Ducati Mulistrada V4 comes in… you can sit up and see everything and still terrorise all of the litre sports bikes that you encounter. They aren’t adventure bikes… they’re super-adventure bikes!
There will be even more difference on the dirt.
I have a 1290 SDR they have so much torque that there's very little time to think between gear changes. It's stupid how much ground it covers quickly
An interesting video but both are not really speed machines. They’re tourers meant for other things in mind.
Let’s see in 100.000 km how the bikes are .
Tbh, the ktm will have probably perished by 50k. And the Bmw will be sold ' still rides like new'
No existe ninguna KTM con 100.000 km...jajajaja

Now lets compare reliability, dealer and rider network, and resale value. Wooooops KTM. The GS/A is more than fast enough and a fantastic travel companion.
You say that, but the GS purchase price much more 🤷♂️
@@JayKay730i I looked at both. I have owned 2 KTM’s. Very happy with the GS.

Like and subscribe buddy, theres going to be plenty of compartive videos
if its only about speed, buts its not. comfy position and fun ride, most people are not even ready for speed...
Im surprised the ktm made it to the end of the video without breaking down or the rider having to stop to stretch his legs!
It did all the above, but was repaired, with 2 week delay on parts, rider came back from a 2 week holiday, and the gs had just about caught up
Bmw GS : + 30 kg
Bmw GS : -- 30 cv

+ 30kg the r1250gs is 242kg. Be amazed if the ktm is 212kg. Even the 790 adventure is 213kg
160cv vs 136 cv lol see you on corners ;)
no problem :)
ruclips.net/video/47obyFuCmAA/видео.html
Corners are mostly driver capabilities related, not bike related. I think this video just shows the difference in low end power between two bikes.
oh can't wait xD
KTM still out performs the GS in the corners haha
been there, done that. the 1250 is an AMAZING adventure and touring bike, but it was never meant as a sporty bike. the 1290 will always be faster than the GS on corners when driven properly.
the GS will make you feel much safer, because of the telelever, which gives zero feel on the handlebar. that means that a new rider, will feel safe to push a GS much harder than a 1290. thats why a lot of people thing GS is better in corners.
These are adventure bikes. If you want to go fast get a sport bike.
Check out the other vids.👍 got a few
The KTM is both adventure and fast. Better to have both in one package than only a fast with a sore back and legs.
Each are tweaked for a slightly different experience at their top end performance and gear ratios... most owners don't ride at the level that would warrant a serious technical discussion about the performance between the two.
I currently own a GS and looking to buy a ktm as my next bike but power to weight ratio is miles out. Bm loads heavier and 30hp less.
Why didn't you test in 5th and 6th Gear? Afraid from 2-2? 😉

What's next guys, you going to try which sport bike is best in offroad? That's silly)
My KTM SA is a monster of a MC. Definitely fast for an adv bike.
Bye bye bmw😅
If you bought one of the largest ADV Touring bikes out there like R1250GSA with street/drag racing in mind, then something is really wrong with you... I rode my 1250GSA from 8 am to 8pm for 900 miles from Merced, CA to Astoria, OR. Never felt inadequate in speed, power, safety or comfort along the route. What else do I need? If I were into drag race I could've purchased a Hayabusa for much less $... KTM, GSA all great bikes. Enjoy the ride whichever one you choose to own, trust me you'll enjoy no matter which one is under you!
Yes thats the sole purpose of us buying these two bikes. We got the results now we will try abit of touring / offroading. Im not too hopeful they are going to be suited for this. So we might just get sportbikes to go offroad and touring.
Thank you for your comments, I will have a meeting with my freind and we will both arrange to see a doctor purely from your invaluable insight on our mental condition.
Thanks again
Safe riding
GS is dull lump of a bike with major issues with quality living on past memories of older versions the drive shaft is low quality & you are lucky if you manage a decent tour on the new ones! Then you've got the fuel pump issues & the quick release LED dash for thieves
Let just say, the KTM is far more powerful than the BMW, whats so surprising? Ill still stay with my GSA as its a far better all rounder and much more reliable.
For a global use BMW is the best..
Try with a BMW xr o ducati Multistrada that have about 160 CV like the 1290 sa... It's Easy with GS that has 30 CV less.
and in the rain program to put it in front again you will be ... nice😉😉😉
1290 engine is the worst engine I have ever had in a motorbike, the vibration is horrendous. I parked it up and wouldn't use it. Sold it as quick as I could.

KTM RULES.... BMW FOR WIMPS
Well no shit 🤣 Why not just post a video that the sky is blue and water is wet?
I don't understand the point of this test. You're saying things like the R1250GS being destroyed and putting laughing emojis below the scoreboard....
The KTM has 163 hp or something of the sort...the 1250 has 136 hp. I also believe the 1250 is heavier. Just from these two points of information, there should be no surprise the KTM will accelerate quicker...
You might aswell compare the KTM 790 to a 1250 then...or a S1000RR...it's just as pointless.
I should ask you in future how I should make videos.....Noooooot!
Enjoy it for what it is without getting all worked up.
Im sure your GS has plenty of other things which are better than the KTM which will make you feel better about it.😎
@@Offtrackroadadventures It seems like you took this the wrong way and thus reply in a defensive manner. I don't have a 1250, so you're interpreting my answer the wrong way. My point is that you are comparing two bikes in an area they are not in competition, thus the comparison has no real value (I think). That is not a comment that relates to your video-making-skills, it's just a fact about the aim of the two companies that created those bikes.
The 1250 aims to be a confortable long distance touring bike with offroad capabilities. The KTM aims to be more of a performance bike. Yes, they are techically in the big adventure segment, but one outputting 136 hp and the other 163 hp, it seems obvious to me that BMW never meant to compete on acceleration or top speed with this bike, thus the comparison you make is to me has no applicable value...not saying it's not cool to see how quickly the KTM picks up speed, just that the question of whether or not the one bike is quicker than the other, would never enter my mind after reading the specs.
I'm sure you make a lot of great videos and it was not a criticism of your skills.
The Bmw is a package is 10 times better
Okey why is the KTM damn fast????
Simply put, its just a better bike🤭
@@Offtrackroadadventures hehehehehe demn right.........
DO NOT READ THIS COMMENT if you own a KTM 1290 Super Adventure.
If I wanted a fast adventure bike, I would choose a Multistrada not a KTM, sorry, they are great bikes, but they are so ugly and that color orange on all their models destroyed my eyes as well.
tbh this isn't that shocking I could destroy big gs on a 600cc yamaha fazer fz6 lol funny to watch still
Isn't it amusing.
My new 1250 is a torque monster the best in gear acceleration. Ktm gobbles it up. I don't care about that I didn't by a race bike.
So what......? Let's go and get a latte...!
If bikes are rated by highway "roll-on" drag races then I'll stay with my bike! Winner, winner!! Haha!
I want a ktm comparison. 1190 vs 1290
1190 for the win only because I own one.
1190 ..I also own one...beast
No 6th gear roll on? That would have been funny.
GNE GNEEEE MY BIKE IS FASTER THAN YOUR...GNEEE. GS 1200 is A BIKE FOR MEN, NOT FOR BOYS.
Now go for a 400 Km ride and tell me if you can still feel your arse on that KTM. I would rather have a BMW or a Triumph for a long ride. Adventure bikes aren’t about drag racing. Just my opinion
Done more than that Pal! Uk to Switzerland and back. With the comfort heated seat option on the KTM the BMW fails to use another excuse.
Please try again
@@Offtrackroadadventures like I said Pal! It’s not about drag racing and it was my opinion. You ride an adventure bike to look at the scenery as the trip is part of the adventure it’s not about how fast my bike is. Come ride down here in Oz it’s all about the ride not how fast you can get there 👍
Alors oui la KTM bat la BMW , par contre niveau confort la BMW détruit la KTM ! C'est bête mais c'est gros trail ce doivent d'être confortable !😂
Lol drag racing adventure bikes. Utterly pointless. Love it
Lol it was more a case of drag racing the ego's
@@Offtrackroadadventures we have all done that!!
Nice comparative no doubt...
One have 136 hp (bmw) and the other have 160hp...
so this test it doesn’t make sense
True...Bmw doesnt have an answer to the Ktm 1290 in the adventure class
......recommended für immature audiences under -18.....🙃,
Stop crying
