@@martyn_g yup next best thing for my needs is either the crf300L, klx300 or 690er. I ride highways too much and cant stand the narrow 5spd on the drz. There is an aftermarket wide ratio drz gearbox avail, it will just cost $2k to get it installed and there’s still a compromise on the spread.

@@martinwiklund7106 the 390 engine has been manufactured since 2013, and it really is not great compared to that of the sx-f 350 (which is more powerful and much lighter) or the 690 (which is barely heavier, for performance and endurance largely upper). the Adventure 390 already matches the claim of its engine very well While the 490 will be at best a miniature 790, therefore heavy, wide, not coupler... its only interest would be its low manufacturing price. No interest in a high-performance trail like KTM is used to doing. the 490 will be used for a road trail, a beginner's roadster and a small sportbike

Did they update the 6 speed to a wide ratio transmission or is it the same gear ratios as before. That’s been one reason I’ve held off buying one.

I really need one of these.

The innovative use of the rear fuel tank as the main structural element of the subframe keeps weight low and eliminates structural complexity, but I think it seriously weakens the rear part of the structure, which may crack, especially if carrying heavy luggage, unless I'm mistaken

I hate to say it but yes. My 2017 had just over 12,000 miles 80 percent was off road. The Honda always did me good, it was just the lack of power and the suspension was on the side of being to soft.

Beautiful isn’t the first thing that comes to mind, more purposeful 😆

Been trying to find a new2022 for the last 6 months maybe I can find a 2023

I had a MY2020, I sold it because, 1) seat height is to tall for me (I am 6ft4), seat needs to be at least 2 inches lower for safe riding off road. 2) first gear is too tall a meaning trickle speed is too fast on tight technical terrain. if I geared it down it would ruin the top end speed. Just ask why Lyndon Poskit chose to swap out his gearbox for his RTW adventures. 3) seat was so hard and also too narrow with a convex shape. It was like sitting on a lightly padded telegraph pole, Seat Concepr To can solve the seat problem, why can’t KTM design team?. 4) there was no rev counter or fuel gauge. 5) the lightest of contact with the exhaust results in 2nd degree burns. 6) at 157kg fully fuelled its 15 to 20kg too heavy even with the low under seat fuel tank. Does the 2023 model fix any of these issues?.

Is the exhaust still burning pants, a lugage, plastics and the suspension is like a piece of wood? One needs to invest thousands of euros to improve it and after one year still not perfect. Authorised WP service quite far away and many iterations are needed, a local KTM dealer will not help you in the suspension matter. On the other side, no comparable motorcycle in this weight class on the market, 2021 model owner.

Exchange of the exhaust is a must. Akrap is almost like original. Arrow has homologated one with catalyzer. Light, cold and the engine is starting to breath. A huge increase of a torque on low rpm. No more burned soft sidebags, I don't use a rack.

If there was a choice - I wish it would come with cruise control rather than a quick shifter
