I spent a day each testing the MT-09 SP, the Street Triple R and the 790 Duke, I loved the little KTMs lightness ,flickability and amazing power for an 800cc twin, it's just a fun bike and I defy anyone not to have a massive grin whilst riding it, but it has Marmite looks, which just don't do it for me, also the build quality is slightly iffy, with some gaps in parts of the bodywork. I bought the Triumph and am really glad I did but if the looks don't put you off the 790 it's simply a great little do it all fun bike that will have you smiling the whole time you're on it.

XSR900 has three modes, and there is a palpable difference between B and A modes. Some find the modes extraneous, however I find them very useful for a number of reasons, and frequently switch between them depending on weather mainly.

Bought the bike off the back of this and many other reviews....at 1850 miles my bike needed a complete engine rebuild as a result of a hairline crack in the cylinder head that must have been missed at the point of testing when originally put together. The dealership took three months to fix my bike, upon returning it and having to run it in again, the very first time I fired it up....it was leaking coolant. It's back with the dealership....again. Fantastic bike when working, rubbish bike when sat in the dealership workshop. I think I'll be px'ing it come springtime.

I'm sure you can think of other similar roads, but it'll do?

Cracking vid chaps. Best Duke 790 review online at the moment. However, where is your Duke 690 test?? With it's low weight advantage, surely it could keep up with the 790 on the twistie roads!? I just picked up a new 2017 Duke 690 (exactly same as 2018 model apart from some graphics and colour changes) for €6,000! That's 5,000 in the queens money!! Is the 790 3,000 pounds better?? My 690 also cam with Track Pack :-)

I wouldn't say 790 is 3k better but it's clearly way better than 690. On the smaller one, I need to flick through gears very quickly to keep it in the powerband, I can already feel I'm reaching the bike's limits. I was not able to push 790 to its limits though, I'm still not that experienced.

I'll try to test them in the future but would like to have your opinion about it. i know about the difference in price and purpose of those two bikes. Just wondering about the immediate torque. Thanks :)

Was really looking forward to this bike, the concept was mind blowing!! And I know production bikes never the same as the concept but this is actually pretty boring looking, there is something about silver plastic that I really don't like. I love the look of the 1290 and even the new 390 looks really good, but this just looks plain in comparison. For the money this bike is a steal, and i thought I would straight down to my local dealer throwing money at him but I'm just not sure I can get over the looks... never know hopefully it'll grow on me!!

I understand the exhaust looks like shit too because Euro4, but man why did they put a huge passenger seat, why did they fucked up with the suspensions and still label it "scalpel" naked bike made for sporty riding type of people? And the long gearing on a twin engine, it's made for torque, not top speeds otherwise I would buy a four cylinder smh

@exothermal.sprocket
@exothermal.sprocket 6 жыл бұрын
All non-electronic suspensions are essentially non-adjustable; once you adjust them to your weight and riding style, you don't adjust them anymore. If factories set them perfect from the start, there wouldn't be any need for adjustment. Yet no one is the same weight, height, or riding style.
@randykawasaki
@randykawasaki 6 жыл бұрын
Nope. You also adjust them according to envrionment, eg myy local B road and my local track: what suits one dont suit the other, even though its the same rider.....
@exothermal.sprocket
@exothermal.sprocket 6 жыл бұрын
Environment is only one more parameter. Once set, it's essentially non adjustable. It's quite possible to have the right spring rates and damping rates for a given person in a given location on a given piece of pavement. Can the average motorcyclist actually utilize adjustable suspension? Do they get off the machine and twiddle with a wrench and screwdriver before they get to a canyon road? I think it would be easier to adjust their riding style than turn screws that few people even understand how they work. Otherwise you gotta pay a thousand dollars more and it no longer remains competitive in the class and KTM loses interest.
@randykawasaki
@randykawasaki 6 жыл бұрын
Some people don't adjust adjustable suspension, but plenty do. If you were right, Ohlins (for example) wouldn't exist, since everyone would have adapted to the questionable and largely non adjustable suspension that was around when Ohlins started...... It's a bit like saying every bike should have the same tyres.
@exothermal.sprocket
@exothermal.sprocket 6 жыл бұрын
Adjustable suspension is good stuff. Nothing wrong with it. It just costs over 1000 dollars more to go from your typical fixed units to the adjustable stuff. 1000 dollars minimum. Add in the hi/low speed circuits and other later technical innovations and the cost just goes up from there.

I’m sure KTM will get out an R version of this pretty soon. Maybe an upgrade kit with adjustable front forks and Brembo brakes would be enough. Don’t think the engine needs more puff. I’m also interested to see you guys review the MT09. It’s not really a direct competitor in my opinion as this KTM is a twin and the 09 is a triple and they both have a distinctively different riding position. It sounds weird saying this but the 09 feels more grown up and more of an all rounder. The seat can take a pillion which neither this duke or trumpet can do with their dinky little rear seats.

Great review..but will it be reliable? New engine from KTM? Doubt it will be..rode the 690 in Tenerife and it broke down. Rode the 1190 in Tenerife and it rattled a lot and the electronics were not all working

Bez Bizara have you ever ridden on Tenerife? The roads are some of the best in the world and the weather is excellent. 1 of many places that I have ridden around the world. Travel and motorcycling are my main passions.

Good job chaps. So KTM has hit it out of the park with the 790. Good news there. I want the comfy riding version however to go with my leather cardigan.

Great review guys! Just to state... Spanish brakes manufacturer is JJuan, top notch in braking ;). They are probably calibrated to work together with the suspension. More bite at the beginning of the lever would make more front diving. What was the limiting factor in the circuit? Brakes or forks? Cheers from Spain

Do you think a body kit and exhaust could be knocked up to better represent the original prototype we all listed after? If so I can see that being a viable business proposition in the aftermarket world. Also Alastair, your footwork is an education.

So what are the chances KTM will release a 790 R with Brembos, (Akras) and tunable fork/shock? Guess that'd destroy the competition, no?

I would be really interested in a mt 07 where they had a 800cc parallel twin instead (so it would have the 270 degree crank with just a bit more hp than the current mt 07 but both more manageable than the mt 09 and not quite that much hp as then it gets to the point it needs to start to have the electronic aids like they added now to the mt 09). I dont think they will do it because it would canabilize their mt 09, but i thought it might be a better all around bike that can be at the cost of the current mt 07

Niklas i get what you are saying, but i thot an extra 10 to 15 hp with the same torque would be awesome. But they would probably have to stiffen the suspension up somewhat
