The KTM Super Adventure S 

Tried them all, including the Multistrada. The KTM is by far the best in my opinion.

My next bike. Saving at the moment for it

Hi Shaun, great review, tested the GT and Superadventure S today, loved both but strangely for me I preferred the S, feels completely finished where the GT which is more in the UK doesn’t have the features the S has, interested in next years GT as I think that will be amazing, I did the same route on both bikes and for my riding the handled each as well as each other. For comparison I had a multistrada and the s handled just as well and the engine is more potent, I hate when the bike industry puts bikes into brackets, for me I could easily keep up with mates on superdukes and tuonos on the super adventure.

Beautiful town. And I want this bike bad

You've got me grinning from ear to ear, my next bike is going to be a KTM, probably the SD GT. Iv'e forgotten how good the roads are in Germany, I was stationed in Hohne and Herford in the late 80s and mid 90s, and exercised a lot in that area. I must plan a road trip soon, hopefully on a KTM, great videos, keep up the good work.

I'm glad they went to black and Orange. I didn't like the mostly white on previous models .

Cannot wait to buy one!

It’s a great value for money bike. I love the GSA and have owned three, but now having retired, money has to spread around carefully, and those initials that in the past I had no interest in, VFM, have to be considered. It’s a truly great bike and I seriously want one.😎👍🏻🏍🙂

Love this bike, seen at the Dortmund motorad show, but at 5"7 way to big was on tippy toe`s.definitly best adventure bike on the market.

Gorgeous looking bike, living in a remote island I worry about KTM quality and maintenance costs, would feel safer with a Africa Twin or a Super Tenere I think, but a beautiful bike for sure.

Tank is 23l and good for 300-400km depending on how you are riding. :) Same S-A suspension as the GT, the SD R and SA R have non-S-A.

Hey did it make you rethink your choice of having gone for the GT? I like them both.

Another awesome video. I really like this bike. I love my Superduke, but it would be nice to have on of these in the stable for sure.

Thanks for this...very enjoyable and informative

My dreambike :-)

You can't lower the bike due to the active spring system according to KTM ( I asked).

Very good and thought provoking video Shaun; a bike I’ve always fancied riding, but would I be brave enough to come away from the shaft drive of my GSA? Cheers and ride safe, Andy.

Massively good ride!😄👍. I have the 1190 and love every ride 'cos it's a right laugh.Brilliant bike! 1290 can only be better. Dare not ride one as may like it too much.🙊🐵🙉.

I enjoy your blogs. But I wondered where did you get your theme song from? The one with the wissle. Thanks in advance. And keep up the good work. Shiny side up!

Do you find there is any wind buffeting around your head at speed? Or is it clean air and comfortable?

Please comment on the “Heat” the bike generates. Had the privilege of test riding this incredible machine for 4 hours (city traffic & hwy). Due to the tremendous heat levels I experienced it forced me to move on. Nice video.

Really nice bike Shaun. Where does the satnav go and what type/make? Can there be an integrated system like the GSA.?

Disabling rear ABS does not allow you to spin up the rear. This flick is full of errors

How do you rate this bike compared to the S1k XR? Great video btw. Really enjoyed it.

May I ask you, do you prefer the GT or Adventure S? I can’t decide between the two, and I’m purchasing next year March-April,.... :)

Buying one

Here in Utah America almost impossible to test ride a KTM! I am considering the 1290 Adventure S or 1290Gt but I have no idea what to get. I love the torque and power specs on the GT but the dual purpose on the Adventure S. I know you mentioned that they are completely different yet may I ask what you would get haven ridden both, if you could only own 1? I do a lot of highway and city miles, never been off-road yet. Thank you, looking forward hearing from you

Hahaha I do that all the time on my adventure, press the ignition button lol. Another great vid. How did you end up in the father land ?

I guess I'll wait for updated 1290gt

Nice review. What country are you in?

What are the service costs like on the KTM compared to the BMW? That was one of the reasons you didn’t get the Ducati the other year because of the high cost of ownership.

Ducati Multistrada 1260

multistrada Enduro a bit the same BH

So ugly , I would never buy one
