      I'm personally waiting to see if a KTM 390 Adventure R, KTM 490 Adventure R, Honda NX 500 or Norden 501 comes out; or if the new Himalayan 450 is going to be any good. Definitely looking for that middlewight (true middleweight, not this 800CC middleweight stuff) bike that is lightweight, good suspension and of course looks pretty!

      Got my cfr300L 2 weeks ago. Such an amazing little machine. Coming from a g310gs, and it not being enough bike for off-road (fire roads and trails, nothing too technical) I’m am super pleased with the crf300. Might not be as good on-road, although it’s not vastly inferior to the g310.
      But it’s MUCH better off-road, which is better for my uses of the bike.
      Also Honda reliability and cost-to-own-and-run will always be better than the European brand.

    I have a 790 A/R and love it. I’m 64 and love riding it. Its very forgiving in the dirt. It jumps and slides and is relatively manoeuvrable. The only 2 things i find a bit of a challenge is stopping when going fast on the dirt and picking it up if you fall over. I’m not as agile as i used to be. It tours/commutes very well. As the old saying goes its horses for courses.

      I have heard great things about the Tuareg! I haven’t tested it yet but definitely worth the short list. Obviously I’m a big fan of the 790/890 platform but the T7 is great too despite not having TC - it makes up for it with a nice linear power that is smooth and controllable. My biggest criticism of the standard T7 is how tall and top heavy it is and suspension.

      What i believe he meant was that triples deliver less torque compared to twins and singles of the same capacity. He's actually right but shouldn't have described it as power. This is the reason all dirt bikes are singles. They also deliver their torque in pulses which makes for good traction, unlike multi cylinder engines that smooth out the power delivery, giving less 'dig'.

    After months of research and originally with wanting larger such as KTM 1290, BMW 1250, Africa Twin, I realized mid would would be much better " for me". Despite being 6'2" and 200 lbs. Looked at BMW 850 (too heavy and too expensive), Ducati, Triumph (the 24.4 rake not for me) most likely its the KTM 890 R. Albeit far from perfect given reliability and 1 year warranty. And to be honest, the Aprilia 660 is 2nd. Better price point, 2 year warranty, 50 lbs lighter that then 890 R, and just enough tech ( abs, cruise standard, TC...) and power for on road and off. And Brembo and KYB long suspension travel too! But with limited dealerships and after market parts, its a bit of a risk for me.

    • @TheMotoBarista
      @TheMotoBarista  2 года назад +1

      The Aprilia might be slightly lighter but I can guarantee the KTM will feel lighter and more stable due to better centralised mass. Also we have 2 year warranty on KTMs here in Australia, not where you are?
      The reliability issue I believe is overblown. They have sold ALOT of these bikes and we only hear about the ones with trouble. Personally I have had zero issues on two 790s in the family - like with any bike, service it, change oil halfway through service intervals and ride!

    Weight. The less the better for your first ADV bike. The more you ride in rough stuff, the more it matters. If you only ride on sealed roads or simple gravel roads, then bigger is better at speed in windy conditions. Buy second hand to avoid huge depreciation. Last time I checked, speed limits in OZ are 100-110 kph and we have those pesky roos etc. that run out without notice to attempt to kill you. You don't need any more than 30 HP, if that ,to get around at 100 kph. Anymore is just wheel spin. At that speed you don't need ABS/ TC unless you are challenged in riding skills. If I was buying a first ADV again ( 30 years too late for me) I would seriously but a Royal Enfield Himalayan and spend the $15 K saved compared to a KTM/ BMW/ Triumph on touring expenses.

    Triumph have just altered the crank on their Tiger so that it feels more like s twin. I can understand why they did it - a 120° triple is too refined and I'm not that keen on its character.

    Well, here in Brazil we have a short list of Adv motorcycles available. For the middle weight adv market we have now the Tiger 900, which I particularly own, 850 GSA and the cheater 1100 Africa Twin. Recently KTM brought the 890 ADV R but at a staggering R$ 149.000,00 (double as much of a Tiger 900 Rally PRO) or US$ 30.000,00 just unreal. Considering the technical aspects of each and the price tag it becomes realisticaly obvious choice the Triumph. The Rally Pro at R$ 78.000,00 (US$ 15.600,00) has the most complete set of eletronics and comfort parts of the list. Than you have the Honda (Africa Twin base model) and BMW F850 GSA at the R$ 82.000,00 (US$ 16.400,00) but BMW is on the heavy weight side of the scale and the Africa Twin on the least equiped motorcycle, not even a pillion handles is there. As you said, we are not racing so to drop the pressure F28R24 on soft trail or F28R28 on rocky ones is not a big deal and the tubeless tyres is the way to go for me. To my liking I'd consider the 850 GS, not the GSA, but 15 liters kind of sound too little, I don't know. In a more well balanced market price I'd definately give the KTM a go. The weight distribution and the slide control at 9 different levels are such apealing to me. Sorry for the long text and congrats on your videos they are well balanced on lenght and info. Cheers mate

      ​@@TheMotoBarista I think due to be an (100%) imported vehicle they enter in a different category of import tax. The others are assembled here with at least 30% of local parts in their respective factories, than they are not considered an imported bike. So different taxes applied. Besides KTM is viewed as a luxury motorcycle here and part of the price can be that too.

    How is ktm with their 12 or 24 month warranty if you put mods on your bike?

    • @TheMotoBarista
      @TheMotoBarista  2 года назад +1

      Depends on what the problem is, if you change the wheels and then there is a problem with your camshaft - obviously warranty will cover. If a mod can directly prove damage, then they won’t cover. Also though each country’s consumer laws are different so warranty rights in Australia are very good.

    How are 700 one cilinders higher in maintenance and cost? No bad comment or anything just that I’ve only had bigger cc one cilinders and intervals are 10-15k which is normal and the engines are mostly easier to service due to only having one piston. Highways are a bit harsher indeed but here in Europe I mostly do backroads as I hate highways on any kind of motorcycle

    Tires for me would have to be tubeless. From

      tubeless can be VERY dangerous in certain terrain, you're forced to run higher pressures, which is Not good for running over small or medium rocks or wood debris.....where-as Tubeless will be "soggy" and compensate for this. If you're stick to simple trails, that's fine, but any REAL off-roading, and you Can find yourself in trouble with a tubeless setup pretty fast....trust me.
