Thanks for the review! love mine and plan on putting many miles on it
Awesome! We wish you many happy miles! 😁
It’s a V Twin, Ducati’s are an L twin.
Well I bought it a couple of months ago. Best machine I ever owned in my life!
Definitely a sweet ride ... grats on the purchase!🙌
Does it have cruise control
@@bbolivier1292 no. I installed a mechanical aftermarket cruise control.
@@TheChristzouve what brand.
@@jonasbaine3538 kaoko. Mechanical cruise control.
Nice bike, just make sure it has a mitsuba sm 13 starter and upgraded fuel filter..
Such a great bike I have two of them both orange S models 😁💪
Why do you need two of the same bike? That's double the depreciation every year!
Slick ride!
MILSIMIST Events It will make a fine addition to someone’s garage! :)
Is this a good buy on 2022 ? As used with 68000km ?
Hi all... i'm thinking of buying one, but a bit concern with the 'ride-by-wire' throttle mechanism. KTM has abandoned this in the newer generations of adventure bikes. So is it not as reliable or break down easily?
Mine has 100000kms on it and the throttle is doing fine 😁
thanks for using metric values! (while speaking of fuel range and consumtion)
What about high speed stability?
Many people complain about it, when going 160 or 200km/h, then it starts to swing from left to right.
As an owner I will say that this is a very true occurrence
With those panniers, being different sizes, it may happen with certain tires( tkc70). Other than that, no.
I had the 2016 in grey and traded it for a 2020 1290 SAS. Should'a kept the 2016.
what is/was wrong with the 2020?
why?
@@jetlee7743 The 2016 shipped with spoke wheels which are a stronger rim and can take more off-road punishment. If you hit a rock the wrong way and crack a cast wheel, your air is gone and your walking. These are adventure bikes so your walking out of the woods. Also a bent spoke wheel can be re-bent to get you home providing you ride with a 12v compressor. The 2016 has a metal key, the 2020 has a fob. I have had a few big scares on back roads where the sensor does not acknowledge the key. Even after carrying spare fob batteries and changing them out. Once the fob would not work for a week (the bike was uninsured but I start it once and a while) then it started working again. KTM had no answers but I found this was not a rate occurrence after reading many blogs. I also prefer the analogue gauges. The only thing I would miss on the 2020 is the cruise control. I owned a 2016 and now own a 2020 and the 10hp difference is negligible other than better economy (150hp).

@@deadmanprodinc agree. I have been saying since multistrada was released with spoked rims and electronic suspension that ktm made a massive mistake not offering 1290 s with spoked rims off showroom floor. My 14 1190 S has spoked rims and I can do off-road without concern of wheel damage. To me, multistrada v4 strikes best balanced package. Ktm r and s model forces rider to choose strictly how they want to ride.
Ktm is letting other manufacturers catch up and also ignoring reliability concerns. They also refuse to make a lightweight 701/690 adventure and now ducati has 698 mono and likely adventure version soon which I would immediately buy.
0-100 in 2,9 sec. I have one. Its more like 3,5 to 4
John Doe yea the specs are always in best case scenarios with professional riders likely - but it it sure quick! :)
May depend on the gas you’re using and your altitude. 99 Ron or higher widely available in Europe.
5l/100km? Not really....as soon as you hit a twisty road it's more like 6-6.5l/100km😁
Cheers from Austria.✌️
Oh yes I’m sure the rated fuel economy is based on optimal conditions and an easy throttle hand! 😁
@@DriveRide My record was 4.8l/100km on more or less straight roads without much braking and a avg. speed of 78kph over ~130km.😅
@@StromerCZcams sounds about right! 😆
did you get the fueling dongles ?
No I don’t believe on this bike.
Nice bike but I live in turkey
Yes I imagine shipping cost would be a bit steep! 😅
@@DriveRide the tax fee is too high😂
7.7l,my 1190…..
2,8 sec😆 Maybe 3,5 🤙
Jesus look at this asphalt. in Africa they have better roads!!
John Doe lol you’re not wrong! 😜
