Are the cams still made from cheese?
Yes, Austrian cheese
Id say Chinese cheese since that's where they're getting their parts from. @@chrishall9625
Why fix issues when every couple of years you can just increase displacement by 100cc and hope they will just vanish…😝😝
Any idea why people would rather bellyache than enjoy motorcycles?
As a Norden 901 Expedition owner. I really don't need 100 more CC's. What I do need is a better air box, better cooling, and better fuel mapping. Simpler menu and built in Android auto.
Hopefully they revised the camshafts on this 990. KTM still has quite a bit of explaining to do.
As a former KTM 950 & 990 Adventure owner (both of which I loved) it's great to see KTM taking styling cue's from these and it's current 450 Dakar bike , I have never gelled with the current insect like front end on recent KTM 's which is why I didn't trade my 990 Adventure in for a 1090/1190/1290 Adventure, if the new 990 Adventure looks anything like the spy shots then I may well be heading down to my nearest KTM dealer in 2025.
Since these are prototype bikes, the lights are temporary, and rarely make it to the final design. The visual cues pay homage to the original 990, and not the current rally bikes.
I agree, it is more 990 Adventure.
Ready to replace your cams!
Hopefully they will retain that headlight rather than putting that horrific Alien type Headlight on it..🤕🤕🤕🤕
yes to that headlight
Looks good , like the original 990 Adventure which was a great bike. Hopefully they work in reliability as well.
Great video ❤😊
More like it
Win for the headlight . . .vertical display bad design . . . Real question is how much of a weight gain?
Dual fuel cap like the Tenere World raid?
@KTM you need to sit up and take notice of the tidal wave developing re: dissatisfaction from the 790 and 890 owners, they're your target market for this new bike and I for one will not even look at the 990 or another KTM, I'm pretty sure that I'm not alone. The way in which you've chosen to address the cam failures is despicable - silence and blaming owners to try shirk responsibility for the failures, other than your failed manufacturing processes, does nothing good for your brand reputation.
Camshafts made of jello yes I have one
Think having a massive "saddle bag" gas tank is all the rage now. Might see a production diesel engine soon actually so would hold off unless and until that. Battery electrics continue to become crazy moar capable and fun in the meantime as expected. Long $hmc Honda Motor Corporation strong buy.
Glad they’ve changed the looks. The previous one was so ugly it would stop me even trying it, now I’d give one a shot.
ktm must seal engine gaskets and do work for camshafts,and no need new faulty bikes
It seems that adventure bike engine displacement increases are the equivalent of the automotive domain's "improved chassis rigidity". Give it a rest.
As soon as the WEF and EPA and CARB and others stop increasing their ridiculous unscientific propaganda nonsense.
Vertical displays leave little to no room for navigation devices, which makes no sense on an adventure bike.
Probably it will come with a Navigation setup from the factory, like on the new MT09...🤔

@@abymathew295 which is probably fine if you stay on road.
smt 990 please!
Development is not a moving target if you change moniker from ADV to DS.
👏👏👏
I hope they have a Matt black option like in the spy shots. Would be a nice change from the garish orange
Is there any middleweight ADV left in KTM?😂 because all of them are increased to 1000cc range. The lowest one is 390 adv for pros.
Looks more like the OG990 and dare I say it the Tenere 700, should upset a few KTM aficionados!
Looks more like a 990 SMT to me. Also that swingarm is way different, and not as good looking.
990 looks better than the new 1390.
990 ... for what? It would have been better to close the gap between 390 and 890!
I don't know what they got against the 690? The enduro version has been out for 15+ years now. You would think they would have slapped a fairing and a proper tank on it by now to give us a successor to the 640 Adventure?
@@jakeviolet2195 With all due respect, the days of the 690 are numbered and besides, an enduro is a different category than the adventure models.
there are 2 things they need to do before I consider any KTM.
1. Get rid of that insect looking headlight
2. Get rid of the chocolate cams
Looks like we are halfway there.
First off I have loved all of the KTM dirtbikes I owned as they were well built and very reliable, but I bought a brand new Duke 790 (which is the same basic Chinese motor) and it was an absolute POS…..I mean trash!
Sorry, but it is not worthy of the 990 name. They need to call it something else!
‘Adventure’ bikes are so depressing…
No separate rear light, looks like it’s integrated into the indicators. Disappointed that the BMW disease has infected KTM. Most of these updates do not look like a better bike will result. Still fugly, too.
is it just me or is this another boring super ugly ADV bike?
