I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to test ride the mighty KTM 1290, thanks to local supporter Andy who was generous enough to loan it to me for the day. My first time on one, I took the big v-twin through a range of varying terrain, with that 160hp stonker of an engine putting a massive grin on my face and causing the rear tyre some agonising pain. I almost got the big girl stuck, and finally dropped it in a creek bed - which was where I discovered that the fully fuelled weight of it was not much fun to pick up.

Just cruising josh , whats comfort like compared to the t7 ?? Id rather ride my t7 then my mates 790 when just cruising . Ya said it was comfy but how comfy mate ?

@MVDBR 3 месяца назад

Yeah so I'm the same, from what I remember when I had a short ride on a 790 I remember thinking hey, at least the T7 is more comfy than this. But yeah the 1290 is better again, less vibes than the Tenere, better seat and very comfortable for cruising. Andy's got it set up real nice 👌

I went from the Pan America Special to a 2018 1290 SA-R. I only had it for a month because I’m a short guy at 5’8” 31” inseam. I traded it for a 890 Adventure S which is great for getting my feet on the ground. There is a noticeable difference in top end, especially passing a big rig with a trailer on two lane twisty roads. I looked down at the speedo and I was doing 111 mph when I was preparing to get back in my lane, that was on the Pan Am, the 1290 had the same capability. Very capable bikes.

Good review mate. Having recently decided to add a big bike to the stable for longer trips I purchased a 2018 1090 r. It has less power (125hp) and tech and a bit less weight at 207 dry than the 1290r.Coming from enduro and dual sport bikes it really has surprised me just how capable these big pigs are. The off road dongle that turns off abs and tc is essential imo. They eat tyres like they're made of licorice tho.

Here's one for you... Check out the peak torque for your T7 vs your 690. Pretty shocking, right? Horsepower (RPM X Torque) is important, but our seat of the pant's probably tells us what makes for a grinning level of rideability. Thumpers rock! (Or check out the same for the 890 for fun.)

Got a riding mate here with an 1190 that has a similar problem. He's got it decked out with metal side cases and crash bars and lights. A 560+ lb beast that takes both of us to pick up. He won't let me ride it on account of the weight .. although ironically I sometimes ride other people's loaded Harleys that weigh quite a bit more than that.

My 890 adv standard feels heavy to lift and it doesn't lay flat due to the tanks. I don't think I would be able to lift a 1290. I did ride it on a dirt road and it was fun and agile. My inseam is 76 cm. We are both short around 170cm tall.

That's whole lot of bike. I get what you're saying about riding modes etc, some people can't live without that stuff anymore but it's not for me either. The new Ducati supermoto enables people to wheelie and slide the rear under braking completely controlled by electronics, which is fine but are we creating a generation of riders who appear better than they are? To me it's like every fuggin kid now has their face in a tablet or phone where we used to send it over jumps on bicycles and get up to all sorts of shenanigans. But what would I know? I went from EFI to a flat slide carby and grin like an idiot riding.

In the middle you spend about 2 minutes talking about how rider modes aren't for you and all that rhetoric about how 100 modes and traction control aren't needed and the best traction control is you, then the very next clip "this rally mode is good, very easy for a muppet like me to ride above his pay grade"... Give the ride modes an honest rhetoric free review. Maybe they're sht maybe not, but you gotta review what you're on and not what you believe going in.

@MVDBR 3 месяца назад

Thankfully I remembered to make the "I'm not a professional motorcycle reviewer" disclaimer at the beginning of the video aye 😬 Thanks for the tip. If it helps, what I meant to say was... this bike (power) is awesome, not the rally mode specifically 👍

@robertsinclair 3 месяца назад

Fair enough, playing with the rally settings is where it shines. I think you rode mostly in 6. I found anything above 4 for low speed was annoying. When ripping Sandy roads in higher gears I like keeping the setting around 5 or 6. But lower speed 1st/2nd gear trails I'll run it down to 1 or 2. Using the +/- left hand buttons to tune it instantly. In 2 the slip is consistent and measurable enough to spin the back tire while climbing long sand hills but not fly out of control. I've only had 2 months to play with it, before it snowed, but I feel like there's definitely a lot of potential with rally above offroad mode with the msc off... If you get a chance to ride it again I'd recommend moving the rally setting down and then back up! You still might absolutely hate it, but it's meant to allow the rider instant tuning control.
