Purchased the KTM 890 Adventure S thinking 50/50 riding - on-road versus off-road. Turns out we're riding 95% off-road. While riding off-road the standard suspension starting showing its weaknesses.

In this video, we'll review the Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR, Michelin Anakee Wilds, and the Motoz Adventure RallZ. The video will cover my experience with these tires. If y...

2023 KTM 890 Adventure Standard - my impressions of the bike after 3500 miles of mostly forest roads and some moderate single track. Bought this bike thinking I'd be riding 50/50.
