Awesome riding! I am on the fence of getting a CRF300L and building a BDR weapon; upgrade suspension, skids, racks, larger fuel tank…. Or 390 Adv and do tires and a skid. Wondering what your thoughts are, have you ever rode a 300L? The KTM seems better in every way except ground clearance, it’s only 1” more than my CT125! I have my fingers crossed they do a 390 R soon.
Unfortunately I haven't ridden a stock CRF 300L or rally yet, but I can tell you that generally for somone getting into the sport, I'd be more likely to recommend something like a CRF for a first BRD slayer build for sure.
Hi,i m watching from germany? Congrats to that trails and even you skills! I m thinking about buying a 390,but there s often talked about a lack of reliabiltiy. Did you have some issiues so far? Thks for respond.
I think that reliability was more a concern with the pre-2020 model years. Mine is a 2021 with about 9,000 miles on it (14,484 km), and it has been very reliable. There are, at times, little annoying issues that come up, but never anything that prevents the bike from running and riding. KTMs seem to be a bit quirky like that in general. Hpe this helps!
They are from MotoProWorks, check em out, they were pretty good on lead time and customer service, and the graphics are good quality in my very limited experience.
@@FreeTimeAdventures nice, I was looking at changing the front, which from what I understand is a cheaper/easier install. Any reason you went with the rear? (Noob here)
@esodavr I swapped both to drive specialties sprockets, but I only changed size on the rear, and that decision just came down to sizes that were in stock at the time. I don't see a huge advantage one way or the other from a performance standpoint, though.
When this video was filmed the suspension was still stock. I would run the rear shock preload up two notches from the factory setting and had compression maxed out front and rear. I only slowed down rebound by a couple clicks I think. Now, the suspension has been modified to fit my weight..
ABS - Off Traction (MTC) - Off. The 2021 model year doesn't include road and offroad modes like the newer model years. Your only option is to toggle MTC and ABS on/off.
They are Motoz Tractionator Rallz. I'm posting up a full rundown of parts and accessories for the 390 this Friday, March 15th, if there's anything else you wanted to know about as well.
@yusufkurniawan5454 thanks! It's the same one as the KTM 390 Duke from competition werks. They don't specifically say it fits the adventure, but I did not have any issues installing it. Pro tip - get an extra exhaust gasket for the muffler. Pulling the original one out to re-use it without wrecking the thing can be very difficult.
That just about is raw footage, other than the intro. I am talking to the camera while actually riding and there's very very little editing to this specific video. But if there's interest in pure riding videos with no or very little dialogue, I can put some of those out there as well...
