KTM 790 Adventure | The battery died, no big deal, right? When I installed a new battery, the bike threw a code and had no throttle response. I brought the bike to a well-reviewed dealer and began the journey of seeing how good KTM support is... - Frank
Battery thats been used in my 390 and now 790. I have used the restart feature: amzn.to/45Shntm

You don’t need a good mechanic you need a Yamaha!!!!!🇯🇵

All I have to say is that people who claim these issues are isolated is an absolute lie. EVERY RU-vidr that has one of these things has videos about it being broken. I’m so happy that I chose to buy a Yamaha. 0 issues. Fantastic bike.

When I purchased my 1090 back in 19' it sat at the dealer for a month. Nothing better than paying full pop for a bike and then not being able to ride it. In my experience I did not feel like KTM made me (their customer) the priority ... instead they were more focused on limiting their liability. IMO all of the manufactures operate in the same manner ... people just experience more petty issues with KTM , hence why the mediocre customer service is constantly being reported. 1090 has been great since ... for what it's worth.

It’s awesome that you found a dealer that is willing to work with you! Too bad KTM isn’t as good to the customers as the dealer.

Speaking solely as a Honda owner, I rarely find myself in need of a mechanic. Tire changes and gas stops are very frequent though. Glad you got ya bike back brother. Look forward to riding with you again soon. - Dave

Such a shame I’d love to buy a 790 Adventure but just can’t take the risk. Think I’ll buy a CF Moto 450 MT!

I’m in the market to get my first bike and I consider KTM but there seems to be a lot of issues out there with them.

I have a Mountain Motorsports near me on Mountain Blvd. in Ontario California. (The original?) They run the same logo as your Tennessee dealer and are the nearest dealership to my home. I purchased a Yamaha Seca II from them 30 years ago and Suzuki GSX-S750 in 2021. They have served me well over the years. Glad you got the bike back and can now say goodbye.

It appears your new harness set your speedo to KPH from MPH :)

Glad you got it back, and for a reasonable price!

Good deal Frank, I am glad to see you back on the 790 again, and fantastic that you didn't have to spend a fortune to get it fixed. You may want to consider having Mountain Motorsports look at the speedometer next time, it seems a bit off. 🤣😂

I just bought one. Was nervous about the cam wear and checked them. There shot sitting at the dealer now hoping for goodwill parts

As a KTM 790 Adv owner this is great info ! Glad it worked out

Glad you got your bike back 👍

I watch your (and others) reports nervously. I have a Norden 901 that I LOVE for all the reasons you used to love your 790. The dynamics and performance is incredible on these KTM engined bikes. There’s a reason owners put up with so much. Personally, I haven’t had any issues with the bike. But I’m getting to the point I can’t trust it for travel. Are my odds for imminent disappointment really very low? I don’t know. But it’s hard to get that seed of thought out of your head. Oh well, here’s another biker prayer and I’m off on another adventure. ✌️
