Probably the best video on the 890R out there, and that crazy tent, wow. thanks
thank you so much buddy!! Appreciate that a lot! The tent is amazing
Just discovered this channel. This is good stuff - subscribed!
Thank you mate!! Glad you enjoyed the content!! ⚡️✌🏼
Alexis - fantastic video and excellent setting for a review of the 890 Adventure R and your equipment. I am on my third 1290 Super Adventure and last time is was a hard decision between the big sister or something smaller and lighter. Do you still have your 1290 SAR or are you selling it? Cheers from Germany- Oliver
Hey man! Truly appreciate your comment. I’m grateful for your support it means a lot!!
I still have my 1290 SAR at the moment but will probably give it away in a prize raffle in a couple of months!
The 890 is a game-changer for off-road action and I’ve noticed a huge difference between both bikes!! Even though I LOVE the 1290.
@@alexislecarb so you can give your bike away in a raffle?! One of those days I would love to learn how you make all this work 😉 ride safe and stay awesome 🤙
These are my kinda people! Loved it, subscribed.
Thank you buddy!! Can't wait for the new adventure coming
Encore une vidéo top, super travail !! Ça serait cool une petite vidéo sur ton équipement Mosko et ce que tu amènes en trip !! Bon ride ✌🏻
Il y a un petit passage sur l’équipement Mosko déjà dans la vidéo tu as vu ? Vers 10:45
Tu voudrais une vidéo complète sur tout le matos qu’on prend ?
@@alexislecarb oui effectivement, le matos à prendre pour le voyage et pourquoi tu utilises les équipements Mosko? ergonomie? poids? adaptation?

best 890 video I've seen yet . thanks
Oh thank you so much!!
Superbe vidéo Alexis ! Au plaisir de se faire une sortie !
Merci Morgan!!! ⭐️😍
Fun video as always! Love all the great riding and camaraderie. Even though I prefer the DesertX, I dig the 890 R now that the 23’ looks as good as it rides 👀
Thank you my friend.
My favorite feature on the 890R compared to all the other bikes on the market right now is the center of gravity that is very low on the KTM. For me, that is a game changer, and that makes the whole difference when riding off-road.
I tried other bikes, such as the T7 or the desert X, which are very capable bikes, and very good, but very heavy compared to the KTM 890 R due to the high center of gravity.
@@alexislecarb Agreed! KTM is doing something special with their bikes - the low fuel tanks and killer WP suspension. Genius stuff.
@@shassaboexactly! A no brainer in my opinion
Brilliant, more like this man!!... subbed 🤙🤙🤙
I'll try!! Stay tuned as we are preparing a great journey to the Carpathian mountains. Some great content to come
Amazing vidéo once again !!!
But shit... I want a 890R too now. 😅
Thank you Tom!!! So glad you enjoyed it!!
Get yourself the 890, it’s the ultimate off-road machine!!
Great 🤯
Glad you enjoyed it mate!!!
man!!! u deserve a Motorcycle TV Show!!!
hahaaha thank you so much buddy!!
Such a great video, thank you :)
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts!
superbe vidéo , je possède également ce vélo actuellement en rodage, le morvan c'est sympa je suis a 1h de route mais jamais roulé encore sur les chemins avec ce trail .j'ai hâte d'essayer et d'apprendre a le faire .
Génial ! Il faut y aller, c'est somptueux! Mais en respectant les indications pour qu'on puisse préserver la pratique du trail offroad!! Tu vas adorer cette machine. J'ai fait mon rodage dans Le Morvan moi !
Really enjoyable video thanks for sharing my dad an I have been looking at the 890R an Norden :)
Thank you for taking the time to comment!! I'm super glad you enjoyed the video. Have you bought one of them yet? Feel free to share the video to support the channel.
Fantastic content, dialogue, imagery and storytelling! I'm not going to buy an 890, however, I enjoyed your production without fast-forwarding! Looking forward to seeing more productions. 🙌🏼👍🏼👊🏼🔥💥
Oh buddy, your comment means a lot!!! Been trying at making my content interactive and dynamic so that you don’t have to fast-forward it, so I’m super glad that you watched it that way!! Thank you so much and also looking forward to doing some more! Gotta find some topics now ahhaha
@@alexislecarb My pleasure! I’m currently putting together a whole pile of videos to upload, and making sure it’s engaging, not full of repeat information and not too long, is one thing I think it’s essential. There’s a lot of content that people repeat themselves repeatedly, and if you remove the repeats, you lose about 30% of the duration, minimum. Sometimes I feel like I’m watching one of those reality TV shows, like bar rescue, where it tells you everything that’s coming up multiple times during the commercial breaks, and then you’ve already seen the content. Then they reflect on what you missed in the first section and then show it to you again before they show you what’s coming up and then actually show you what’s coming up after it's already been up 🤦🏼♂️. And before you know it, you have watched 15 minutes of original content within an hour. This is bloody brilliant! Keep it up!!!!💥🙌🏼👊🏼👍🏼
Awesome video mate,
Liked and subscribed 👌👍🍻
Thank you so much buddy! It helps a lot!!
Incredible Netflix style video, I absolutely love it! Thank you! After watching it I definitely want to try the 890R.
Can’t wait for the next one, Cheers!
Thank you so much Julien!!! Let’s have a ride together soon so that you can try this fantastic machine 💪🏼 and so that we can share a beer as well 🥰
Fun video, it’s nice how you all captured and shared parts of the whole experience. 10 to 15 minutes +/- is a good running length (for me), thank you.
Thank you Michael.
I appreciate the positive feedback!
Awesome video !
Thank you buddy 😎😎😎
Excellent video, you really showed the bike in action. How do you not have more subscribers? Keep up the ADV content.
Got to make more and more and more to actually build a community!
But thank you so much for the kind words!!!

Oh merci beaucoup ! Après j’ai pas beaucoup de subscribers 🤷🏼♂️🙃 pour l’anglais, oui ça vient en pratiquant j’ai l’impression 😅🥳
That tentsile connect is one of the best for sure. I use mine a lot. I also use the Amok Draumr XL when it’s just me and it is very comfortable as well but nothing beats the tentsile connect.
Agreed 100% !!
Very good review :) but how does it compare to the Norden and Triumph?
Glad you enjoyed it. Well, those two other bikes are great bikes, no doubt about it. They handle everything you throw at them. BUT. in my opinion, the 890R outperforms significantly for three reasons : it's a lot lighter : ±200kg full, the suspension system is a lot more efficient. And the center of gravity is super low (compared to the Tiger 900) which makes it so handy and easy to ride. I've tried similar bikes like the Desert X or the T7 and this center of gravity makes a HUGE difference.
fantastic video with a real adventure bike. i like my 890 adv/r as well and wish you many more great adventures👍
Thank you so much Robert!!! Cheers from France!! Enjoy the ride
Everything was perfect 👊
Daaamn thank you !!!!
Great review and fantastic production! Nice work! What light mounts are you using for those auxiliary lights on the forks?
Thank you so much @advcrazy! means a lot!! I've installed some mounts I found on Amazon. I mixed two sets of mounts to find that specific fork diameter and now it works just great! Find the link in the description or here : amzn.to/3zkBAZ4 I mixed the 1.75 and 2 inch If I'm right.
Hi @@alexislecarb, as most of people here said. Great video, truly inspiring to watch. Can you confirm those mounts size, i can`t find a 1.75 inch version, only 1, 2 and 2.5 inch.
Thanks in advance
Ronny
What an ambassador you are for KTM and specifically the 890 Adv R. Terrific video and so well put together. I’d love to hear a direct comparison between the bikes in the video as they are the three I am looking at right now. Unfortunately the KTM 890 R and Husky 901 Expedition are not in Australia yet (one to two months wait) so I have to be patient before throwing my leg over either. Plus about a one year wait on the Tiger 900 Rally.
Thank you Mr Mikey!! Appreciate that positive feedback A LOT !!
In my honest opinion, and it's not biased, I think the 890R is without a doubt the most capable machine between these three bikes. The suspensions are a lot better than both the Tiger and the Norden (the Norden has the APEX suspensions from WP). The center of gravity is much lower on both the Norden and the 890R compared to the Tiger. In terms of weight, the Norden is the heavier (204 kg) then the tiger (200 kg) then the 890R (< 200 kg). If you had to choose between the three, it would be a NO BRAINER in my opinion : rush on that 890R. I'm so impressed with this bike. And even without considering all of it above, the power that the bike delivers is a lot of fun!!!
Just got one, and rod it only on the road. i CAN NOT wait to take it off road! Nice video my friend 👏
Put some heavy duty wheels because you’ll rip that off-road terrain once you’re on it!!

Appreciate that a lot!! Greetings from France!!
Great vid!
Thank you so much Michael
Nice video. And that comfy tent seems like the only tent I would ever want to sleep in :) Something that caught my eyes at the end, your handguards are positioned really low... is that to prevent breaking your hands when you go over the bars ?
The tent made our camping experience unique!! About the handguards, it’s mostly that my handlebar is positioned quite vertical, and so my levers at towards the ground which explain why the handguards are as well, to protect them from breaking in case of a fall.
Makes sense?
Vidéo au top comme d’habitude ! Et surtout un bon week-end ensemble 😊🫡☕️
Merci grand chef!! Hâte d’aller en Roumanie ensemble 😉😉😉😉
Excellent and very original video and review! How is the Norden doing on those trails?
Thank you David!! The Norden is doing very good!! Excellent bike! It never got stuck and always managed to make its way! Probably because the rider @alexverine is skilled too 🥳😉🤣
@@alexislecarb I'm looking at the New Norden Expedition and your opinion helps me a lot, and yes! Definitely the Norden rider has a lot of skill like you! Thank you so much.!
Really nice presentation! Great review of the bike (I just got mine and I agree with your assessment), and really nice film-making. I can see from where you ride, how you might enjoy the 890 more than the 1290. 🙂
Oh man!! The 890 is such a no brainer for me now!! I didn't know I could have so much fun on a bike. Thank you for the kinds words regarding my content Curtis!! Let's keep pushing now!!
Holy moly. Ya'll look like you had a great time. I'm biting at the bit for the 890. I"m just concerned the suspension might be lacking, coming from the 501. The cost on the rally version with the good suspension is just so significant.
Thank you mate! The suspension on the 890R are excellent. I never felt like it was lacking range or anything! Definitely no need for the Rally version. Feel free to share the video to support the channel!
You’ve sold me. I’m getting one 😎🍻

How do you like the ergonomics being a taller rider? I'm about the same length but the bike looks really low with the seat, is it easy to pinch with your knees?

Love the video! How do you like the Ruby Moto lights? Can't wait for my 2023 890 late next month!
Thank you!! The Ruby lights are the most insane lights I’ve ever had on a bike. Period. You get 7000 lumens per light, it lights up the whole forest like daylight. Best lighting system out there!!!
@@alexislecarb which ones specifically do you have? Do you do a combo of one light type each or stick to one model specifically? I don’t know which ones I should go for.
@@Slov_ I’m using two Ruby R7 that delivers approximately 7000 lumens each
@@Slov_ but they are quite big and I’m thinking of getting the R5 now that I’ve got a smaller bike
Hi, as usual a fantastic video !
Would you be so kind to ask Etienne wich brand of protection bars he has put on his Triumph Tiger 900 ?
And what he thinks about them.
I used the Hepko & Becker bars, but after doing ABR festival and parts of the ACT track in the UK they are all bend and broken.
Thank You
Hey buyddy! Just asked him and it's SW Motech and he's happy with them!
@@alexislecarb merci beaucoup.
I thought it was SW M. but wasn't shure.
Thanks for the tip
Great video and comparison with the 1290. Now, what do you think about it via a vis the Tiger 900? Significant outperformance?
Thank you a lot for the positive feedback!! Well, those two other bikes are great bikes, no doubt about it. They handle everything you throw at them.

Salut, je voulais savoir si tu avais souffert des remontées de chaleur venant du catalyseur? as tu posé un décatalyseur? MN
Salut Mathias!!
J’avoue il fait chaud avec cette bête !!
what camera do you use for your regular shots? And do you film in log and grade after? Colors look really good in this vid!
Appreciate that Dust Raiders ;) I'm using a Canon R5 and my friend Alex on his Norden uses a Sony A7III.
Yes, we shoot log and color grade after!
How is the mosko moto pullover after while?
Well I am with badland from Klim but this I would buy under the jacket coz it has hood compatible w helmet
I truly love the RAK jacket. I've been wearing it three weeks in Romania and it never disappointed. Nothing compared with KLIM equipment since Mosko is all about light riding gear but you gotta wear some body armor under it
Could you please make a video on the gear ? Especially on protective gears, boots,gloves and clothes! Thanks
I wish I could, but it requires so much time... If we can get a sponsor to support, that'd be great
Its a great bike and very good job, man!
Thank you so much my man!! Truly appreciate that coming from you.
With these tyres you can get thru the bush on yamaha r6 😂

Awesome bro
Thank you buddy!! Truly grateful
Hello, can you show photos of the installation of the additional headlights
Hey! It's directly plugged on the fork
Excellent video and review! I know the video is not about a comparison with the bikes that your friends have but I noticed you struggled going through some water early in the video and they did not. Was it because their bikes were more capable? How does your bike compare to the other bikes as well? I am asking because those bikes are adventure bikes that one would consider as well? So did you get rid of the 1290? You guys got guts! Riding that kind of terrain and at night and you doing it on a new bike at that. Thanks
Hey man
No it’s definitely not that their bikes are more capable because they are not. It is mostly about the rider skills at this specific moment I guess. The 890R is the most capable bikes amongst the three in the video.
@@alexislecarb Thanks! I appreciate your response to my question.
Haha! The presenter's riding skills appear excellent, and we all know the bike's fine. Water crossings are notoriously tricky - I wonder if it's a bit harsh to question either the bike or the rider under such conditions. Those crossings can go well, or not, any given time!
@@CurtisBrandt 🥰🥰🥰
Hi hope you are doing well. I know you are super busy guys however I wanted to ask you about giving me a suggestion regarding Norden 901 Expedition and the KTM 890 R? Which one guys is the best for travel and off road? As for my understanding the Norden is the bike that can do everything and be very comfortable for long distance trips, while the KTM has got a more off road soul and might be less comfortable on the long distance. Kindly let me know. I am 1.85 mt and 90 KG so I guess that both are recommended for my size. Thank you.
you got it exactly right! More comfort on the 901 and more capabilities on the 890. Really depends on your expectations! I went for the 890
I think Revolution Race would have the perfect off road pant if they put some aramid in the knees and hips for road abrasion with a bit of stretch to accommodate knee braces or guards. My RR trousers has knee pad inserts but I'll only wear compression type armour or strap on knee guards. It is nice to be in back woods not looking like a Power Ranger. Good video, as ever, Alex. You are a talented man.
Hey buddy! thank you so much for the kind words regarding my content!! truly grateful for that.
However, I'm not sure what you mean with offroad pants from Revolution Race. They manufacture gear for hikking, trekking and other outdoor-related activities, but definitely NOT motorcycles. I use RR gear for the camping stuff but whenever I'm on the bike, I'm using the Mosko riding gear which provides all you mentionned above.
@@alexislecarb I like genuine dual purpose gear. With knee braces and crash shorts under my RR pants, I feel pretty secure but if RR did a CE AAA pant, I'd buy them. The AAA rating is quite easy to get and most of us ride with knee guards and crash pants, but a bit of abrasion resistance would make them perfect light motorcycle trousers. Klim do a heavy version, Adv Spec do something similar but only in blue with too little room for knee braces. I really like RR gear. The cut suits my shape, but for enduro touring, they take up too much space. If I could wear the trousers riding, it would please me.
@@TheIdlesurfer I’ll try to pass the word to RR team! That could be interesting indeed 😉
Nice review, and nice screens from that region of France. Very nicely shot. Using the 24 clock would be nice for your European audience.. The Tentsile looks interesting, but at 9.4kg and a huge 4m length, it's not really great for moto travel. You could pack a light weight free standing tent and a hammock for less.
Thank you for taking the time to comment mate!! I'll use that 24 clock next time! The tentsile doesn't weight that much actually. If you take only the necessary equipement (inner tent + rain cover + straps) it's much less than what's announced!! The straps are what weight more but they have dual purposes : they can be used for the tent as well as pulling motorbikes when stuck. These are standard ratchet straps so they can have multiple purposes which means you don't have to bring other pulleys for that kind of matter. Actually I think it is perfectly suitable for mototravel! Look at how HUGE the Lonerider moto tent is for comparison... As I mentionned in the video, I now accept the fact of trading a little bit of space on the bike to have that extremely comfortable night sleep. I know there's plenty of tent models that exists on the market which are way more little and space-efficient, but I never had such a good night in a tent before. For our trip in Finland, we had a 2-person ground tent and yes it was lighter and smaller, but the comfort is very different!
What side bags is on the norton 901
Those are the Reckless 80 from Mosko Moto
what abbout the triumph tiger 900 rally pro vs the adventure R ????
Adventure R all the way. Tiger is very capable but definitely less than the 890
Nice one. Maybe a 690 next time and compare it to the 890. Cheers
Let’s stick with the 890R for the moment 🙃😎
Really liked the video, had some difficulties to understand all the English words as they were frenchified from time to time ;) .
It's also useless to lose time blurring a license plate if it's clearly visible @ 6:26
Got it! Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts 😂
Great Video with one disadvantage : Now I know that I am a wimp ;) and I thought that I`m cool adventure guy. But I have one question about your bike. What kind of fork light did you attache? They look great .
found out in a previous comment. its the Ruby R7.
Exactly! Fantastic product!!
Thank you for the positive vibes buddy
so much for the motorcycles
naah
Love your videos man. So easy and entertaining to watch. It's a shame that quality takes time. Could watch one every other day.
Regarding ktm and the brand: somehow, somewhere, someone must have thought, that if KTM had not only great bikes but also good customer support, durability and reliability they would just be too mighty. So they cut the reliability and customer service 😂
I'm driving a Norden myself. But the customer service is garbage. I hope it drives without me needing it for a long time!
Also I'm jealous of your company. You have great friends to share those adventures with! Great idea to also put cameras on their bikes. The additional camera work is well worth it!
thank you so much for the kind words buddy.
It's not so much about time but mostly about money 💲💲 If some brands were actually paying for the content, that would make a difference in posting frequency! 😄 Anyway, about the customer service, it really depends on your dealershop. Mine is on top, and I've got a very good experience so far!
Yeah, the camera work make a big difference as you get to see a third person view rather than cockpit-only. Can't wait to do some more! We're going on an expedition in the Carpathian mountains in June, that might be one of the craziest adventure we had so far
I don't think it will take long until somebody will pay for the exposure and reach, not to forget the lifelike and authentic presentation.
Unfortunately the ktm dealers in my region are all just decent. Nothing in comparison to my former triumph dealer. But the 890 motor is just too insanely fun...
Loving mine. Struggled with its overall size and weight at first.
What tyres are you using?
Did you even watch the video??
Hahahha! Yeah, I talk about the tires at the very beginning of the video. Those are the MotoZ Enduro 6
About its size and weight, it is so light!!!

Great video production. I always wanted to know what happens to these electronic infused bikes 5-10 years down the road? Will you have to dump thousands of dollars to replace all these computers and things like that?
Thank you!! I guess I'll manage to give you an answer in ten years then ;)
@@alexislecarb I will be able to tell you now. I bought the 2023 ktm 890 adventure r
What mounts did you use for those ruby lights? I don’t see them on their website
That’s because I ordered them on Amazon and had to mix two set of different mounts!
You mind sending me the link or brand that you ordered. I’ve already been asking ruby what light mounts you guys used. I’m gonna then send it to them as it looks way better than theirs.
@@sanjosejeff of course buddy, you will find it in the description below. You have an affiliation link to Amazon for the fork light months.
@@alexislecarb thx bud
@@alexislecarb Are you just tapped into the headlight circuit with them on all the time, or are you using some kind of dimmer control for low and high beam useage?
This chain is gonna go big !
You bet!!
