The KTM 1290 Super Adventure S is the pinnacle of high-performance adventure motorcycles, blending cutting-edge technology with rider-focused ergonomics. Its potent 75 V-twin cylinder engine, featuring 4 valves per cylinder, unleashes a torrent of power and torque, making it a thrilling companion for both on-road and off-road excursions.
A chassis overhaul has significantly improved handling, with a 15mm longer steering head and repositioned engine contributing to a more agile riding experience. The new swingarm design adds to stability under acceleration, while a lower seat height and two-tiered seat ensure comfort on long rides.
