Taking the NEW KTM 1290 Super Adventure S Offroad (Plus crash)
Hi there! Welcome to the channel @MyLifeVibes.
In todays video we're going to ride some 60/40 road/dirt tracks, called Greenlanes in the Netherlands, on the 2024 KTM 1290 Super Adventure S. I'm not an experienced offroad rider hence me failing at it as well, I'll show you what happened (spoiler alert, a little crash) and how I got out of it. No one was harmed and no damage to the motorcycle. I enjoyed it very much! I hope you like the content, for ease of navigation I put the timestamps below.

    @cedricvanloo9497 4 місяці тому

    Good topic! Hoz would you compare the throttle respons? I have a 890 Duke R which is very nervous and pulls from the second you open the throttle, which I love. When I testrode the GT I was a bit disppointed about the throttle response: it rips like crazy, but it feels like it has to built up the power a bit, it doesn't have that direct explosiveness I was looking for. How would you compare the SAS on this topic?

    • @MyLifeV1bes
      @MyLifeV1bes 4 місяці тому

      🙏🏼 thanks for commenting. Regarding the throttle response, I’ve never rode a 890 Duke R so I’m not sure how that feels. What I do know is that you have multiple settings in terms of throttle responses both on the GT and SAS. In comfort it reacts it bit slower and more smooth while sport it is really snappy. So both bikes are configurable on that topic. Hope that answers your question :).

    • @kj385
      @kj385 4 місяці тому

      The GT has smooth and responsive throttle. Almost equal to the 890. The SAS throttle is less responsive. But some of that is due to the heavier crank and different cams. So I ride the SAS in sport mode. But the GT and 890 I ride in street mode.

Significant oil leak from the tappet cover. Paying for this brand was a huge fucken mistake, never again.

    Sounds and looks awesome. Is it thicker/wider than the stock exhaust (looking from behind)? I have about 1-2cm to spare between stock exhaust and my luggage racks.

    • @MyLifeV1bes
      @MyLifeV1bes 5 місяців тому

      Thanks! 🙏🏼 the stock exhaust is more rectangular while this exhaust is more oval. So might be that in diameter this exhaust is a bit wider… however if you have the factory luggage racks it’ll fit I think.

    I've got the Arrow one one mine, it sounds great without the baffle in but for long rides I put it back in so it doesn't get too annoying. It only takes 5 mins. What settings are you running the suspension in?

    • @MyLifeV1bes
      @MyLifeV1bes 5 місяців тому

      Thanks for watching and reacting! Arrow Sonora right? Also great exhaust. I must say on long rides this one is quite comfortable (even with baffles out). Regarding suspension It varies, normally just automatic mode. But im still learning the basics of the elaborate options of all the menus. I tried street setup most of the time when riding and find it mostly suitable for anything. More sporty roads (needs good asphalt though in sport). Rally mode still discovering…. You?

      @@MyLifeV1bes As you say street mode unless it's very smooth, but we don't have smooth roads here in England 😄. Try manual preload 70%, street mode, anti dive on the forks and sport mode engine. I find auto to be always a bit too soft and 70% puts a bit more weight over the front too. Give it a go, it's taken me a long time to work everything out. FYI I'm 100 kg geared up. Enjoy.👍

      ⁠@@MyLifeV1bes Cool, I have ordered the Lone Rider Overlander 48l. Also intend to order the Motobags eventually. Thinking about also buying the Wings exhaust eventually. Might have to modify the Outback Motortek luggage racks for it to fit though, so a little bit on the fence about that one at the moment 🤔 The luggage racks go very close to the original exhaust on the back and on the side. The Wings exhaust looks like it might be a bit thicker than OEM. If you don’t mind maybe you can compare/measure the width/diameter (looking from behind the bike) of the Wings exhaust? If it is more than about a centimeter wider then the racks will require modification or removal 🤨

    Ah, Netherlands, fond memories after many trips to Assen for the racing. Replacing my motorcycles is always a wrench bar a couple that were definitely not good and I was glad to move them on. I currently have a KTM Adventure Dakar. I absolutely love it, quite basic in modern bike terms, no tablet screen, no riding modes, no radar………… perfect, just what I wanted. I think it’s a keeper even if I decide to treat myself to another bike in the future. In my opinion, the KTM experience stands or falls on how good your supplying dealership is. Some models have had issues (all brands have issues), and allegedly the KTM factory has been perceived to be unhelpful so the back-up of a supportive dealership might be important. I hope you experience no problems with your new KTM and have many, many miles of enjoyable riding as I have had. Stay safe. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

    I enjoyed the content, thank you. I’ve been interested in the SAS for sometime after riding one a while back. It tried hard to pull my arms off! I’m a bit concerned though by reports of unreliable electronics, handle bar wobbles at speed (maybe due to stock Mitas tyres) and excessive chain slap. I’ll be very interested in your experience with the SAS. Also, I’ve seen spy shots of a 1390 SAS, but not sure when that’s going to hit the showroom floors. Did you consider the Super Duke GT at all - a touring animal.😊

    • @MyLifeV1bes
      @MyLifeV1bes 5 місяців тому

      Hi Scott, thanks for your compliment. Does a lot when starting a channel 😄! The SAS is awesome, I just came back from a 4 day tour and it was amazing. I haven’t had any troubles so far (which is understandable since its new). The Mitas tires are not good indeed, but I haven’t had any wobbles at higher speeds. My thought is that since this model (2024) is the last edition they filtered out a lot of the diseases mentioned on earlier examples. Although I would recommend good dealer support in combination with a good dealer. Regarding the 1390, no opinion yet but it would be a beast no doubt. I did have a look at the Super Duke GT, a great thing but the adventure model was more to my liking. Although if it was up to me I would have all kinds haha. Just test drive and see what fits you best. Next video coming soon is the install of the SC-project exhaust.
