KTM 390 Adventure

Had a 390 Duke and it would cruise at 75 or 80 all day if needed. Passing power isn't as strong as some other bikes but it's adequate and still better than most cars.

I assume the 390 Adv performs about the same.

Can confirm!

It is certainly no liter bike, but goes down the highway just fine.

Woot - glad the Rox Risers are working out for ya.
I played a bit with mine and have them angled back a bit to help me stand a tad further back...

That screen looks just like my first service. Pretty nasty!

Didn't get to ride my buddies 390 yesterday as his wife decided they were going to go skiing. Maybe next time.

You are more than welcome to come take mine for a spin

Very nice offer thanks. You're close, one of my racing buddies lives in Heath.

What? They didn't leave it with you? Hmmm.....

The new tires and bar risers made the bike even more fun to ride. It is a lot of fun on a gravel road.

Wait till you get the pegs “fixed”!

Still wanting to make this bike work for me, glad to hear that the bar risers work. Which foot pegs did you choose and how tall are you? Thanks

"Who said small, can't be efficient too?
With appropriate changes you can also imagine a Freeride 350 Adventure:
- Increased tank by MST 18 lt (350 km autonomy)
- Amdesign turret and dome
- Derivation exhaust manifold exc
- full front of 48 mm exc derivation
- radiators and increased fans
- Central remapping
Might be a viable alternative to the new Honda CRF 300 Rally.
What do you think"

A small company sharing their thoughts! Better seat it might work. Lot of folks said why not 350EXC, but this is meant to be a bike like the 250/300 not a racer. Would be milder, little smaller, and longer maintenance intervals. Interesting anyway for some folks.

When a 390 just isn't enough:

KTM’s 450 Rally Replica Is An Off The Shelf Racer

The consumer-ready KTM 450 Rally Replica is based on the factory bike campaigning the 2021 Dakar Rally. But there are some major differences.

I went with these pegs:

Height-adjustable footrests - Honda NC/VFR & SV650/DL650

Footrests - MADE IN GERMANY. Height adjustment allows optimal position. Quality from SW-MOTECH.

sw-motech.com

They are flat and about 1/2 drop. Big improvement for my use.

I would have gone with these but they weren’t available yet:

I’m 5’9”

Thanks Breeno, I have just ordered the rox risers for my 390 adv.

390 Adventure putting around a dirt track:

He gets a little faster as he goes.

That gives a good all around sense of what that bike is all about.
