KTM 1190 Adventure R in action

September 21, 2012

Here’s the first picture of the 148bhp KTM 1190 Adventure R wearing knobbies, bags and actually turning a wheel, which, believe it or not at the 518lbs curb weight, it’s actually doing off-pavement. Those LED running lights are looking good.

From this angle, it actually looks less-tall than the 950/990s. Small screen may add to the illusion, though.

I demand KTM to send a test mule to HFL ASAP!

Waaaaaaaaait a minute. Isn’t that HFL stickers on the panniers? Somebody do some fancy enhancing.

    I always have the hardest time picking them out. Goes to figure since it used to take me hours to find Waldo too.
    
    Can’t find the stickers on image 2 and 4 here.

So much for road bias. I’m really looking forward to Kevin Ash’s review of the new Multi tomorrow.

Hey Wes- Trying to get a hold of you, got somethin for ya. — JT

Uh…I think the tyres are normally called knobblies, Wes. The knob, or Nobby, could be the rider, depending on circumstances.
