I have a 790 and I love it, however on social media there appears to be a lot of reports of people claiming their camshafts have failed at very, very low milage on the 790 and 890 engines. There is speculation that there is a design or manufacturing fault . It would be helpful if KTM could make a statement regarding these reports either dispelling the claims or offering support if there is a problem and provide reassurance that if properly maintained, owners should expect high milage from the twins. I am interested in the 990 but to buy one I need to be reassured it is reliable and that the manufacture would uphold claims outside of warranty if the durability of the bike was not as would be reasonably expected. Worrying about wether my 11000 mile 790 engine is afflicted with the camshaft problem, I looked to trade it in against a new Triumph 765rs. The triumph didn’t make me smile like the KTM. If KTM is reading this I hope they can tell me I should not worry about reliability of my 790 and I should be confident in the 990

Hello, muy KTM 790 duke 2018 is 35k km now. No engine problems, still running nice as always. I'll do It 100k kms if i can very nice bike

I think after 2021 they fixed the problem cause the camshaft oil jets could clog up if particles get in the oil galleys feeding up in the cylinder head, so the remedy was the installation of an elongated thimble filter screen in the cylinder head under the camshaft bridge. So you could check yours by removing the oil pressure sensor and looking inside to see if one is there, or have a KTM technician check it out, it’s not difficult at all to check, because I checked mine out and it had one, and I have on my channel where I show how it’s done.

Great, but give us a 500cc dual-purpose (not enduro) bike. Kind of like a modern DRZ400 mixed with a KLX300 but with 500cc.... no vibration, long service interval, durable, comfortable seat that is reasonably low, modern lighting, good stand up ergonomics, decent fuel capacity, etc. Market has been screaming for this hole in the market to be filled with a fuel injected bike for a generation.

Emission regulations have caused engine cc to increase. Just get a 790 adventure or 390 adventure. Keep in mind, even though 390 is low, it's still comparable hp to 500cc old bikes.
@lucascarracedo74217 ай бұрын
Yeah I think a 390 dual sport bike that we can convert into supermoto and equally do some light enduro with would be more likely. Which is something that their lineup is lacking.

@KTM What guarantees are there that the cam and cold start issues, from the 790 and 890 motors have been resolved in this new motor? I have lossed all faith in KTM, I'm an 890 Adv R owner and dread it every time I head out on an overnight trip, I have constant cold start issues (been to my dealer 5 times about this, they just shrug their shoulders) and no less than 2 blown up engines, from friends in the past year and more reports with KZbinrs, with little to no interest from KTM in resolving the catastrophic failures. I've always been a die hard KTM owner, but I am starting to look at other brands, as a result of how KTM has dealt with the 890 and 790 engine problems and generally passing the blame onto the owner and shirking any responsibility for a poorly designed engine.
