I'm thinking about picking one up. Glad to see a review. I was VERY happy to see that the cams are partially gear driven so you don't need to faff with the chain getting the cams out!

Great bike, I had one very similar and always regretted letting it go hence I’m looking for another one. I like the look of them with the high front mud guard.

KTM 990 Adventure is a motorcycle cult nowadays. It's a great bike and KTM will never produce an adventure bike like the 990 Adv.

Nice review, your probably one of the few people who have posted a review of this bike recently as in 2021 / 2022. Since you said you have experience riding other bikes, have you ridden the Africa Twin? If so, how does it compare? Also, for maintaining the bike are parts still available?

I've never ridden an Africa Twin sadly - but I imagine this is fairly similar. I believe the Africa is a bit taller and weighty so not the easiest thing to handle off road. Especially the Adventure. Just my take!

3:20 gearing and first is not tall at all... idk why so many people say taht about adv bikes, probably lack of experience to properly ride slowly? never had issue with any adv bike on stock gearing, you have clutch for a reason
