I just bought that bike. I’ve owned the the 2008 990r the 1st Gen 1290r and a 2020 and 2021 Gen 3 1290r. The 890r Duke fun factor is over the top. Out of the box It handle better than any bike I have ever owned. Don’t get me wrong I still love my 1290r just as much for its incredible motor and good handling. But the 890r Duke takes handling to a new level. Plus if you put the Akra exhaust from power parts on it sound better than my 1290r with the full Akra exhaust. Great bike. Go out and test ride one I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
Informative in-depth walk around Kate, cheers QQ.
I do agree Kate it look`s great in that colour, hope Ktm has got rid of the buggs we saw a couple of years a go. Great vid again, keep up the great work!
Angelic review. Well done. I would love to try this bike.
Beautiful Bike! you are so funny!
Looking forward to your ride and review of this bike.
Agree with you, what a bike Kate 👍
bloopers collection is cool too :)
I do love the looks of that bike and the KTM Dukes in general! I just got my first road, well adventure bike, a Tuareg 660. My brother has the KTM 890 Adventure R and we plan to do a trip to our home state of New Mexico next year, with as much as possible on back/dirt roads. It'll be a fun camping trip.
Watching this.. Getting excited for the comfy lanky version.. Can't wait..😁
Great bike
Hey Kate how are you doing today looking forward to seeing you ride this love watching your vlogs nothing beats seeing you on 2 wheels wearing your leathers and swanky helmet and dark visor ride safe lovely only one username Kate x
Had a 2020 yr model. Great handling bike. The ride was rock hard. Sprocket seal failed before it was run in. Just traded it in for a s1000r. Best decision ever
Sprocket seal. That caused you to trade It?
Great video 😊👌🏻
Thank you 😁
I rode a souped up KTM for some time until i got to old, i got worn out cos i just had to twist the throttle all the time, its addictive! tech pack n launch control, what a beast, i will say my mate on his BMW R1000RR could not keep up, i was lucky to survive my KTM best adrenaline rush ever
Hi, very nice review ! I own the 2022 model which is exactly the same ! The kerb weight is 184 kgs.
yes baby
🙌
Totally agree. I want to own one. Spicy KTM in a unique color.
Not that unique…it’s the only colour! 😂
Unless you go slightly older & get a white one 😉 (I've owned both - white better in photos, blue better in person)
390 Duke might be my first bike soon. 😁
You always look like an angel from heaven but that KTM looks like it’s lost half its clothes without a belly pan ect
Hopefully the new 990 version due at some point will enjoy the same upgrade in finish just bestowed upon the 390 and as per the 1290, replacing the Fisher Price quality stickers with proper decals under a lacquer. Only a small detail, but really lets the bike down.
Had one but the small fuel tank was a pain,spent more time at the petrol station than anywhere else,so bought the 1290 gt proper fuel tank
You look like an angel period.
Shucksss 🤣
Fabulous bike and excellent walk around. I wish KTM would up their quality control and extend their warranty.
I bought a 2023 KTM and got a 2 year factory warranty. Not bad!
Found this channel from Mr.Gibbon.
Thanks for coming
love the bike and the review what's the KTM reliability like as heard its not good electrically ? love your channel and reviews
not good at all, everything else is awesome thought
Owned 2x 890Rs & never had any electrical issues. Only issue I've had is a slight weep from the rocker cover on my 2nd one, fixed under warranty (never had any issues with the 1st)
Used both bikes for approx 12-13k hard miles between them.
No keyless ignition on the 890 range, which I believe does cause some headaches on the 1290 range.
What happened to the first one?
You are an angel.
Hahaha thanks
This morning I trundled to a Subway store.
Moments ago I had bum-scootage. Never trust the tuna. ☝🏼
Kate please try the 690 smcr
Orange or black instead of blue Top would be nicer . Why suddenly blue .
Better get a bar raiser for upright stance .
Those two would make it the best bike ever .
Butifulll🧡🧡
Thank you! 😃
Did a testride, it's a beast, argressive and hard to go on normal speeds, just won to rip.
it's a very fun bike tbf!
Hi Kate any chance of a review of the Duke 390? 👍🏻👍🏻
I'd love to! Really hoping to make that happen
14:55 😆 ☺️
That’s telepathy! You did the reviews of my two last bikes in less than 48 hours
Stopp! 😁
Angel you are 😇
If you film the dash with your camera set to the fastest frame rate it will stop the annoying strobing effect.
You might have to go to a 200 fps "slow mo" setting on some cameras.
I need to learn how to stop it. It's on the agenda 😊
You don't need the fastest frame rate. Just choose a frame rate (or shutter speed) equal to the lighting pulse divided by some integer. Recording at 200fps is rediulous for storage and editing purposes. For example if you record at 30fps. 30 * 4 = 120hz. Or if the screen in 60hz, 30 * 2 = 60hz. So 30 fps would work.
@@Omar-kw5ui ... yes the frame rate can be lower than the display multiplex rate, but that doesnt always work.
Ultimately it will depend on what the display multiplex rate is on that particular bike.
Also, filming the dash for 20 seconds at 200fps is totally acceptable, you dont need to do an entire 20 minute video at 200fps lol
The logical solution is to adjust the frame rate and shutter speed in small increments until the artefact is gone, not to ramp it up to 200fps. She filmed the display for 200 seconds not 20. So you're proposing 200fps at 1080p for 200 seconds. With a compact video compression standard like H.264, you would be looking at a file size of around 20gb. Shooting uncompressed, you would be looking at a file size of between 250gb to 320gb. That's not including the rest of the video. So yes, it is ridiculous to film in "slow mo" just to make the artefacts go away when you can do the same thing much more efficiently. This will save her time moving the files off the camera, allow her to fit the whole video on one memory card, save her time editing and exporting the video. @@wizrom3046
Omar, Wiz - Thank you both, Appreciate you both.
For the road, with the right rider, on b roads they're untouchable, not for beginners though, I think the motor lacks a bit of character, but I'm nit picking it works really well.
I thought about buying one but reading about the quality control and reliability issues put me off. The colours for me are awful, like a pavement pizza!
Not a pavement pizzaaaaa haha
When KTM learn to build bikes that don't have constant electrical gremlins,oil leaks,quickshifter problems and stop charging extra for features that are already included in the software I'll definitely buy one 😬
Still worth it.
I’m on my second new KTM, my 1290GT was faultless and my 1290SAS has been the same. I admit you’re right about them charging to unlock features, that part is a bit mean of them 😆
@@LickyDischargeit seems you can be lucky or unlucky,my local mechanic had 2 1290 adventures from new that had identical problems,the third has been fine, spent a lot of time playing hell with his dealer to have any help though.
New KTM's are not bad anymore got almost 10km on mine no issues at all. And the charging for extra features oh well its stupid but I still like KTM's haha.
No real electronic issues with the 790/890 range.
QS issues generally come from people setting the chain tension incorrectly - the actual QS/blipper is sweet.
The charging extra for options is becoming a very common thing across ALL manufacturers, both in the car & bike world.
I love you
So Kate . . . . in your garage would you prefer the 890 Duke R or the 765 RS ?
Such a tricky question but I think the 765rs might justttt pip it
@@UsernameKate Bravo - the correct answer i feel too. Next question (and the most important of course) red or AA yellow ?
RENAULT LIQUID YELLOW VIBESSSSSS :D
Having owned both, they're horse for courses - overall they're basically neck & neck.
The 765RS is better in some areas, the 890R is better in others
I've owned 2x 890R (with a 765RS in between) & personally, it's the one I'd choose.
2:01 Ryan Fortnine explains the 285 degree crank: ruclips.net/video/Qn9JrN1JERI/видео.htmlsi=eeN_fbeA85RJj71L&t=452 😊
👍👍🇺🇸
Been looking at these but put off with reliability problems
Stragely enough i hate that sidestand clunk. HD always rubber it.
Haha I like a nice affirmative clunk 🤣
HD weighs twice as much as this bike 🤣
@@Erstwhile.Freeman Yes true and they lock in to a slot when in use. Which took some getting used to when I went back to a gsxs.
It's that disconcerting 'rock' for me when they lock 🤣 at the dealership, the amount of customers that would lunge to stop it falling even though it wasn't going anywhere 🤣
What age is best for me take my daughter out on the back of my bike she’s 10 now
If you can afford buying proper protecting riding gear. May help if she has been riding on a horse before (no joke) and is somewhat sporty. Footpegs, something to hold on at you...
That is enough of thr suggestions over here, not sure what are the regulations in your country. Enjoy, just came back from a daytrip with 12 bikes and 2 kids (12 and 14). They did great and enjoyed it alot.
GREAT IDEA YOUR TITLES IN INCHES AND CMS. POUNDS & KILOS !!!👍😉
I never expected ktm to make an ugly bike.. i mean 1290 is so good and the new 2024 390 is insane why they made 890 like it was crashed and u got no money to fix it
I’m just not into the modern styling. Maybe it’s just me 🙂
IDE never have another Ktm just got rid of my 1290 sdr problem after problem lost all trust in it
What did you replace it with?
Kawasaki h2
Have to keep these parallel twins apart, they keep having more parallel twins. More yawns.
Although this bike does not shout out K'om T'o M'e, I do find it aggreable to look at. Pity that it is only available in "Peacock" as without having to think long, I do know 2 people who don't like blue, and add me to them, than we already have 3. So it might be difficult to sell it in big numbers. However, it does offer a lot for the price, and if one has a bike to trade in, then anything could happen with those sales statistics, especially considering the large and still growing fan-basis that KTM seems to have in UK.
As i've already said somewhere else on your channel, you could really sell your Dad's very last pair of boots to Mr. R. Sunak to drive his enorm Merc with! You have an enormous personality and likeable way of doing your job, that despite any sort of weather, always shines through, but despite all that, i'm afraid,,, "i'm out"!
Now, where was I...? Oh yes, dribbling over that V-Strom prospect! You know, the 1050DE, the big bad boy with the fabulous colour schemes. But I will be back when you do your "final thoughts" video on this 890 Duke before you it give back, see ya.
