@@mooiboyace I dunno man. There have already been some issues with the 790s leaking oil in various gaskets around the engine. I think the 790 is a sick bike. But after reading all the of horror stories on r/KTM and r/Husqvarna. I don't think I would ever gamble my money on an Austrian bike. It may be faster than a Yamaha T7, but I guarantee it won't be as reliable down the road, nor will KTM honor warranty like Yamaha. I think this is a classic example of European performance vs Japanese reliability.
IRLtrolls If you put them side to side, the 790 is the better bike for the road/commuting and that’s probably what Tom will use it for the most. But to be completely honest, If I had to choose myself; Tenere 700 all the way. If i’m chugging it through mud or flooring it on dirt I just need to know it will stay running, and the CP2 engine it has is wonderful, torquey and reliable. I totally get where you’re coming from though, KTM has had a lot of problems over the years and i’ve seen some small problems with the 790’s too (broken horn-buttons and such). I’m hoping Tom’s 790 isn’t a lemon like his 690 was😅
@@IRLtrolls a lot of the reported problems are internet bull shit stories, my 790R has been great so far with over 3000 miles, even the reported oil leaks are commonly oil from the chain collecting on the skid plate and idiots thinking it's the engine. No bikes or cars are perfect, there will always be some problems.
Nerb1 dyno results posted on forums says the 790 looses power without the cat. Also being that low down not sure if the weight difference would be noticeable.
Hey Tom, I've got 890R. I used to ride T700 a lot and only thing I miss is that sound of Tenere. Is that SC-Project exhaust giving similar "happy rider" feeling for 890R after change like for stock T700.
Yeah, let's just all close our eyes for all the "boys" out there not acknowledging the women that maybe wanna enjoy this as well... Ignorant and unprofessional.
Hello maybe your wife could answer this but how did she find being a pillion passenger on this bike? Would she be comfortable on a 2 hr ride or so? Thanks mate 👍
hey, man. got the same set up. got a question if you could answer. the little bolt on the silencer has a tack weld on it, how did you break it lose? i didn't wanna force it, so that i don't strip the allen head.
I'm looking to buy these blizzard saddlebags : - seems like it moves a lot as it's made to me taken offroad 🤔 - are you sure it's not possible to ride with a passenger ? Not possible to put the straps under the seat ? Thanks in advance ;)
Sounds great - cool +1 ; mate pretty sure with the 790's Euro 4 mapping you cannot just change mufflers like the old days unless you remap ! as these new bikes run super lean to burn off oil
RidingWithTom Thanks Tom. Just wondering, as nearly anything you add to a modern 4WD seems a way to deny Warranty claims.... Looking like a great bike, I hope it holds better than the 690's
this is really so FAIL when people buy a bike they like and then they think the bike sounds not good or too silent. All you making the bike louder Guys: because of you the regulations are becoming stricter and stricter and more and more is forbidden. Thanks. Who wants a loud bike anyway? Pisses you off after a while and also everyone around you. Actually I am happy with the new regulations that bikes with modded exhausts and over 95 db are forbidden im certain Areas in the Alps. Thanks to YOU show offs.
I know they have to have these giant trash cans on the bikes because of emissions and what not, but! Owners are just gonna rip them off and put aftermarket on them straight away. so I don't know why they even bother with motorcycles.
I normally like the look of KTM, but this bike is a mess. Its like a box of bits that were thrown together. The exhaust is so far away from the frame, just looks wrong.
Delete the cat! Make it stupidly loud. My fz07 makes the silverware rattle when I warm the bike up in the garage. It’s GREAT!
Bish you crazy tho
On the 790 you Will destroy the engine with a full system .... Look it up 🙂
@@jellepeeters1546 de cat isn't supposed to be good the cat is there for a reason
dinerau who gives a fuck my bike has no cat
I wouldnt be to concerned about the exhaust, that engine sounds like a Shaking Milo tin full of marbles.
dazaspc sounds like theres a whole lot of machinery smashing together inside the casing.
Very KTM. 😳
When he started it with the stock exhaust on I was wondering if it had oil in it lmfao
This is nothing compared to my 690 motor, that thing sounded like a box of spanners, even before the motor went kaboom
You should be concerned about your KTM when ist sounds as smooth as an japanese bike.
@@RidingWithTom yeah yeah defend the ticking time bomb xD
I can't believe you went back to KTM after getting stranded in the desert! Now that's brand loyalty 😂
It’s a really big difference between the 690 and 790 .. pretty much a totally different bike. And even the updated 690 engine is pretty bulletproof.

Wasn't that 690 rung out and used on track days, and just head gasket failure?

Tom: Buys 790
KTM: 790s are so 2018, we make 890s now.
Ahhhhh, 790 didn't come out until 2019, duhhhh
Yeah and next year there’ll be a 990 ....again. 😄
Sorry to say Tom... The camera does it no justice. I would recommend getting rid of that heavy cat though... Be much louder aswell
Yeah sounds much deeper and louder in person, I personally don’t want it any louder then how it is now
Dyno results say less power with the cat removed advrider.com/f/threads/790-adventure-decat-tune-results.1415175/
Adam Evans No shit, that’s compensated for with a tune.
Noice. I will be interested in how a cat removal goes. The cat is huge on those bikes. 5kg weight saving right there!
Nerb1 dyno results posted on forums says the 790 looses power without the cat. Also being that low down not sure if the weight difference would be noticeable.
@@SomeRandoInternetPoster you need dyno tune
“That sounds a lot like nerbs 1190!” Uncle nerb is the man to aspire to for sure!!
wow... this sounds amazing... so much better than any other slip-on ive heard :-D you sold one more of thiese :-P
Absolutely love the videos of the KTM keep them coming
1:25 Stop flexing Tom! ^^'
Wow, huge improvement! Well done👍
Look up Verex Tasmania for a decat, well priced and Aussie made 👍👍💪
Wow that looks great !! I absolutely love the retro look. Cat delete would be great for this btw.
How to remove the dbkiller. Its imposible... Thanks
Oooh 790, didnt know they made those. Neat
A perfekt Bike for your Country!
Looks cool without the side panels.

We gonna see this thing getting sent soon? any adventures in the pipeline?
She sounds mint
did you have to have a re map if the baffle is out all the time ?
I gotta question for the gents:
*HOWS IT GOIN?*
Yeah, let's just all close our eyes for all the "boys" out there not acknowledging the women that maybe wanna enjoy this as well... Ignorant and unprofessional.
Maybe you have to be there to hear it - sounds exactly like my 890 adventure stock. How much hp/tqs you pick up with it?
Sounds a lot better with the SC Project and silencer removed!

👍🏻Beutiful sound and bike
Bro..do this bike loos better in that removed side panels?
GEENNNTSS !
Noice tom
So what was the weight difference…..???
I'm not sure anyone has found a good workaround for deleting the cat yet, from what I've read it actually decrease performance doing it.
Tom i follow you 6 or 7 years what you do for living man ?
IT in banking.
Get rid of the cat! Save weight and better sound , less engine rattle sound.
What is the weight difference ?
Sounds great - cool +1 ; mate pretty sure with the 790's Euro 4 mapping you cannot just change mufflers like the old days unless you remap ! as these new bikes run super lean to burn off oil
Do you have to change the mapping with an aftermarket exhaust?
No
And here I am trying to make my bikes quieter.
Weight difference?
Cool.
Who would bag out a sexy KTM ??
Tom ,have you tried the Karoo 3s off road yet?
Yeah, they aren’t great
Yep, they suck
Which part was taken out? I misunderstood on 2:56
the db killer
Bro you’re shaking af
Third, mornings gents
Does it void the factory warranty?
Hugh Jazz only if you want it to
Slip on like this defs does not void warranty, I had a slip on exhaust on my 690 that blew two motors that were replaced under warranty
RidingWithTom Thanks Tom. Just wondering, as nearly anything you add to a modern 4WD seems a way to deny Warranty claims....
Looking like a great bike, I hope it holds better than the 690's
Whats the service intervals for the 790
15000km according to KTM
What was the drill you were using?
Lmao drill
Milwaukee
What do you think about the Yamaha tenere?
Should've bought one instead.
@@malcaithness9889 you think it's better? I've been considering getting one.
@@malcaithness9889 alright you've convinced me haha
@@SilentPestSolutions I think you already knew,ride safe.
I'll wait and see if Tom blows up this one first if so the Yamaha is for me! one more year for me... HA! HA!
Maybe because of the camera, but that exhaust looks pretty ugly.😅😅😅 (In my opinion) but sounds pretty good!!! 👌🏼
Ho remembers Seb
:)
So much engine noise can hardly hear the exhaust still hahaha looks much better though
Still quieter than a stock Nuda.
TOMO get a new cbr rr rrrrr rrrrepsteindidntkillhimselfrrrrrr

Ahhh a little things called emissions. ........and sound, they test the decibels as part of the emissions test
If you want a rumble get a V8 like a real man ;)
