Got a 390 adv. 6k miles mostly offroad... Beat the s out of it. Zero issues. Insanely fun.
Thought i would throw my 2 cents in since so many are bashing ktm on here.

[Starship]

I have owned 2 Super Dukes. All that power and Torque below 9500 rpm. Perfect for the street. I want to buy this one

[JCrozier]

since when does 190 hp only get a 9 out of 10 for power??? WTF!!!!

[admireinspire]

I imagine the looks are super polarizing but this is one of my favorite naked bikes of all time. I love the headlight cluster so much.

[shanemartinson]

OC: that is exactly what we need.... I bought a gen 1 last year, and it's my 1sst hyper naked, love it. I actually think it's the perfect street bike. Being someone who has only bought sportbikes in the past, and still has one, I really don't think I'll be buying another one, this class of motorcycle is so much better for the street. The torque on these motors is amazing, and makes a simple ride to work just plain fun. I can just ride easy and chill, or I can attack the turns, all in one bike. Really wish I would have bought this class of bike sooner.

My 22 SDR is a monster, I want to try out the 1390 to see just how different it is

[shivvashishthabhargava]

Another beast by the folks at Mattighofen! 🇦🇹 🧡
Simply legendary.

[Jim-hmfb]

What is all the nonsense at 8:34 about it being the slowest and then you talk about BHP and torque? It may be down on top speed, I don't know, but its way up on torque vs the competition and more importantly it has about 20 BHP and 20 Nm of torque more than any of its competitors at any point in its rev range. The Ducati and BMW have more up top because they rev higher. At any road useable rev range the 1390 is beasting the competitors. I switched the video off at this point it was such rubbish.

chase talking about riding on pot-holed raods.. us brits- wait you have roads without pot-holes?

[escapeorion]

Long intro almost changed the channel
Thank you for the video

[markmcadams]

Yep i had the 2015 1190 adventure r, great fast ass heck, put 45000 trouble free miles on her, picked up a 2019 super adventure s, still have 26000 miles on her, no issues so far . Looking for a 2025 1390 adventure s 👍👍

[helgejohan]

9/10 Tourque😂more like 11/10✊🔥in sport mode

[clarklimbaugh]

That 1390 looks like a monster, it's in the running for my next bike. You should review a ZH2 SE, that's my top pick for the moment

[ericgottsacker]

Gs is my dream bike. I’m buying a gs 310 as my starter to work up. There’s a bunch of off road trails in Wisconsin. One of them go from Green Bay to minnnesota.

@chaseontwowheels, About to take home a 2024 1390 SDR Evo, SUPER excited, and thanks for the detailed review! I want to support your sponsor at Quad Lock, but noticed that your phone is sticking way up and into the wind, which I would like to avoid. Is there a way to mount a Quad Lock directly to the left of the KTM screen, coving the handlebar (in front of the trans fluid reservoir) and neatly flushing it in between the screen and the controls? If so, which Quad Lock mount should I order, as there are quite a few options? Any advice would be appreciated!

I've ridden only the 125, 200 and 390. But I've realised they all hit fall neutrals just light you did in the video.

[Osprey]

I met someone who har a prototype model of this bike, and it was quite an impressive bike.

[SteveSzss]

Performance is not capped out. I just bought this bike last weekend. It's a function of engine heat not service. When cold you're limited to 5500 rpm... Once warm it redlines as normal. Stock seat is not good. Too thin and digs in to your thighs. My 2018 Superduke seat is way better. Need to check the KTM ergo seat for my 1390.

[rullehejs]

I like your reviews but you need to get your facts straight. It’s not 8 valves pr. cylinder. It’s 4. Neither the BMW or the Ducati delivers more torque and you have to go to M territory on the Beemer to deliver more horses and that’s means more cash on the counter and I’m guessing the Ducati aint cheap either. So when comparing remember prices too 😊
