best chain cleaning video on youtube
😂😂 thanks! I've finally made it
Great video! The way you're laughing like a young kid, THAT'S what it's all about. If something stirs your soul like that, then it's worth every penny. Be safe mate!
Exactly! Thank you for watching and ride safe 💪🏼
@SamVBikes yes sir. You got a new subscriber. 😊
Cannot wait to test this beast. It’s between this and theSFV4 for me this year. SFV4 has that same feeling higher up in rev range. Way more usable on the roads from what I’m hearing . I like to drive forward not up!
Anyone who does a walkaround leaving the wheels facing in the same direction gets my vote. Great review. What a blast!
😂😂 thank you!
Your channel is a bad influence on my wallet.
Haha! It's a bad influence on mine too, don't worry! 😂
Great vid, I see your in hemel Hempstead, do they still have a KTM dealer there ?
Yes! The KTM Centre is where I am at the start
Performance is like track but can still use some of the road functions grips fuel gauge I think
Ahh good to know!
Fantastic review!!
Thank you mate 💪🏼
SDR is so strong from so low down. I had a Gen 3 and it is still the most fun bike I ever had, but it can get tiring! Really looking forward to the 1390 Super Adv to come out.
Yeah I can definitely understand that! It takes effort to ride! So good though
@@SamVBikesis it quicker than the H2 Se Kawasaki?
It definitely feels much quicker. The Kawasaki will probably be faster top end but this torque makes it feel like you're doing double the speed that you are
@@SamVBikes aha I hear ya, yeah I still not demod the H2 , I did the Street Triple Rs on Saturday and tbh I came away thinking 🤔 “ 130 hp is much more within my skill and ability level, it’s nice to have 210 hp but I gave the Street Triple a good go and it’s more than enough for me 😂 obviously I had the 1200 but I honestly think it’s too much bike but it’s soooooo nice to ride the way it just launches you into oblivion 😂😂😂👊🏽!!
That's precisely it! Haha! I rode both the 1390 and the new 990 back to back on this day filming and the 990 is by far the better bike for launching around the roads. Almost got my knee down in the first 15 mins without even trying. It would just be if I could bring myself to walk past the 1390 to buy a 990 haha
This was a fun video to watch! We seems to share same spirit 😅 The only thing I'm missing is test of a wheelie control system on 5 levels 😅 Maybe next time
Haha thank you! The wheelie control works well... trust me! 😂😂
I feel like your genuine reaction was enough as a review. Seems perfect for Adrenalin junkies.
Haha yes! Very true
Loved the comedic broil with your trademark giggle over it 😂
Haha thank you pal
Cracking vid.... what a beast! 👍
Cheers bud 💪🏼
Your laugh says it all...love it!
😂😂 it was a real shock
Great review Sam as a very happy Ktm 1290 Gt owner and very happy customer of the Ktm for many years Ktm keep bring out bikes I love ❤️ of all different flavors 😁😁🏍️🏍️👍👍👍
I'd be VERY interested to see if they do a 1390 GT. That would be an awesome bit of kit!
@@SamVBikes definitely Sam I’ve had 2 gts from the Ktm Center and love them but after seeing how much you love your SAS it’s got me thinking of having a change even though I’m very happy Dam you 😁😁🏍️🏍️❤️❤️
Haha! It's a nice change up! More relaxed riding position and off road capability too if you wanted to dabble!
Briljant video again, I could not stop smiling during your ride. First time you had to stop to recover yourself?
Thank you! Yes! I've ridden faster bikes but this one in track throttle is just super aggressive! Loved it ha
Loved the vid, liked and subbed! If I may ask an annoying question, this, the V4S or the M1000R, as an allrounder..? Which would you go home with? I want to upgrade from my 2021 MT-09 SP... but I am unable to make up my mind.
V4R is much more expensive, drinks more fuel, has less torque down low (must be kept in higher rpm to get most of the power) and the M1000R is just a boring 4 in line engine. I drove all bikes and bought my second SDR (I really liked the V4R but not for the streets, its a circuit bike really). but I must says I like riding my wife's Street Triple RS (2023 model) almost as much!
I agree with the above. The Ducati is more of a special occasion bike in my mind. I wouldn't even consider taking it on a trip or for a long ride. For me, the SuperDuke would win. Both SDR and M1000R are stupidly powerful but you can get more of a thrill from the SDR on the roads due to the torque. The M1R is an inline 4 so the fun starts at much higher speeds
@@tubejorrit The Ducati V4 and V2 in the flesh are just beautiful bikes but my god you sit on one and the body position is horrendous, I literally couldn’t ride around on a V4 , obviously they’re track focused but on the road definitely not for me 👍🏾
Ahh interesting you say that! I thought I was the only one who found them uncomfortable! Would be nice to try them on a trip to see if it was any better
@@Cartsp70 If the Ducati V4S was a car, it would have been a Ferrari 458, if the KTM would be a car its a Mercedes C63S, both the same horsepower, but the merc being more fun because of all the torque at lower RPM, more comfy. The Ferrari faster around a track ofcourse but not livable on a daily basis.
Probably the best inserts in the world ! Easy sub🍺
Haha thank you!
They've caught up to BMW with creature comforts. Best time to get a bike is NOW boys and girls!
I don't understand the flashing to cleaning the spokes on the bike... am I missing something?
The footage on camera wasn't something that should be shown
Great vid,well done😂
Haha thank you
Check engine lights on ktms .. gotta love it
Haha yeah I can only think it was low fuel because it went out after I filled it up. Or the previous guy had done some suspect stuff on it
I can only imagine the feeling! I want it!!!!
Haha so do I!
Reg has the right number 666....number of the beast 😂, what an animal of a bike 👌
Haha yeah! Love those plates. KTM Centre has a few of them!
I have 2023 1290 SAS and that is enought power I think 1390 will make the wall of life and heaven thinner 🤔 I love to ride on curvy roads that beast cant handle traction on those bad quality road surface I guess?
Haha yeah! Very true!
It's got a host of traction control, slip control, wheelie control etc so as long as you've got good tyres, it should be fine. The SAS will be better at bumpy roads due to the extra suspension travel though
calma calma calma calma chameleonnnn... ahahahahaaaa....
I am totally satisfied with my 1290 SAS, so do I need one, no?
do I want one? hell yeaaahhh...
thanks for a great, entertaining video...
😂😂 that's going to be in your head for a good few hours now!
Haha that is exactly my thoughts. I absolutely do not need more power or hooliganism... but I kinda want it
@@SamVBikes exactly my thoughts :)
Thank you for saying you don't do wheelies at the start of your 1390 video. I've switched off
Soooo did ya did ya did ya???? Thanks for putting your lungs on the line for us all, much appreciated!
I may have asked about finance figures haha
That thing looks silly fast. If you're looking for a similar experience from a different brand check out the current generation MT-10. It's definitely not as elevated as the Duke in any objective way, but that doesn't stop it from being manic, comfortable fun.
Yes! The MT10 is a monster of a bike. Really underrated and it really should get more love
@@SamVBikes Yeah, they're deceptively fast relative to the stats. I'm sure the 1390 is absolutely bonkers just based on how manic the 1290 is. Cheers.
400 careful, loving, considerate miles.
And then I was handed the keys!
The guy that brought it back before me left it ticking from being so warm 😂
watch Bikeworld's test of the 1290 SAS, Vs the V4 Multistrada, BMW and H-D.... (done in the wet,) the 1290 walked the Multistrada on 'in gear' acceleration.....that's what KTM's are all about! I don't understand how the hell it doesn't have some kind of fairing on the front to relieve pressure on the rider like the GT.....
Haha yes I've seen that! I was shocked the Ducati didn't have the roll on power with the V4. Wonder if a fly screen would make a difference
I don't see the logic of putting that power, top end etc on a bike if you cant hold the damn thing above 80-90mph without wearing yourself out. my 1290 SAS is more than adequate!!... @@SamVBikes
The wind on the bike was very clean. It wasn't a case of it being too much at high speed. It was the acceleration in track throttle. Just insanely torquey
What kind of gloves are they? Look comfortable and warm
They are Halvarssons Ljusdal gloves! Love them!
What a beast. The noise it makes is so deceiving, sounds like my 390 but with 4 x the horse power.
Yeah definitely! There's so much intake noise and I love it!
only gave a like for all the laughter hahaha, nah nice vid mate
😂😂 appreciate it
Why is the rev bar flashing when you give it a bit
shift-light
First service is at 600 miles so the shift light is set low to remind you to be careful on the engine
Any news on a date for the 1390 Super Adventure
Everyone seems to say reveal in late 2024, on dealers early 2025. So I'd keep my eyes peeled for Eicma
Great review mate, what a tool the Superduke is. If we both bought one, I reckon we could end up cell mates! 😂
😂😂 play a game of who can lose their license first haha
@@SamVBikes it would be a matter of when 😂 the road from a mile from my house, to Ragley Hall and ABR Fest is all average speed cameras ☹️
Ahh is it!! I'll have to remember that for when I come up 😂 maybe come over on the monkey so it's almost impossible to speed aha
@@SamVBikes they seem to be spreading too. I'm hoping for some decent weather this week as I'm not working and hope to get out on the bike. Even if it's just half an hour over to Stratford to sit on some bikes in Blade Motorcycles and drink their coffee 😀
Yeah they seem to be everywhere recently! Haha pretend you really are interested in one of their bikes to get some cake or doughnuts too
You first said this has all new switchgear, but then you said it's the same as in your Super Adventure. Could you clarify?
New switchgear for this model. The Super Adventure switchgear was updated for the new model so this has followed with that
@@SamVBikes What MY Super Adventure are you refering to? The previous gen 1290 SDR had tons of problems related to the switchgear and I wanted to make sure I'm not getting the same poor design...
2021 onward. It's the Super Adventure I own which appears on the channel constantly. Same model as my friend is riding in this video
@@SamVBikes Oh, I thought the previous 1290 SDR (MY 2023) and the 2021-onward 1290 SA already had the same switchgear... Thanks.
Where can we find the rest of the spoke cleaning video? 😂
Behind a pay wall on my OnlyFans 😂😂
Does it chug at low revs?
Nope seems really smooth! Even with no throttle
That number plate seems very apt for that weapon 😈
Haha! It's great isn't it?!
It’s very similar to my private plate
Ooohh interesting! I'll have to have a look!
@@SamVBikes it’s currently on retention I need to put it on at some point 🤦🏻♂️
Haha! It is a faff though isn't it. I got offered a decent amount for the one on the car but couldn't be bothered with the hassle if taking it off and sorting the replacement 😂
the diffrence with the m1000rr and the 1390 superduke is bassically that superduke has 32 more nm of torque... crazy
When you put it like that... it sounds mental haha
Do you get much vibration in the bars ??
you forgot to edit the chain clean out of the video😂😂👍👍
Not really! There's obviously some because it's a twin but not as bad as an S1000R in my opinion!
Haha that chain cleaning was definitely in place of other content that shouldn't be on YT 😂😂
@@SamVBikes Yer I've got the M1000r competition and I put grip puppies on it which helps big time
Do I need 190HP? Nope. Do I want 190 HP? Yeeeep!
Haha exactly!
Says it all 😂 Looking forward to my testride soon. Might have a certain impact on my wallet... 🙃
Haha yes! A very expensive test ride 😂
Does it have fuel gauge bar ? And how is the heat ?
Yes it has a fuel gauge and miles to empty. Heats not too bad but you can definitely tell you're sitting on a big Twin. Similar heat to the 1290
@@SamVBikes that’s great, any word on reliability?? 🤣🤣 just kidding hopefully u get it and tell us, thanks 🙏🏻
Haha! I'm sure there will be a few issues but if it's anything like my Super Adventure it should be faultless 😂
If you're 5'-9" and have a 32" inseam, your pants are dragging. 😂
Too much to go wrong.
Take all the fancy stuff away and go raw, bare back/ old school.
Then try and tame the beast. 😂
😂😂 I dont think anyone would have much luck taming 190bhp 1350cc twin with no electronics haha
@@SamVBikes
But what a blast that would be.
Ok !
Keep TCS on full 😉🤣
I need a SHOT!!😅
Your luck.. you'd get a preload error on first start 😂
Haha don't jinx it.
Wait till November/December you'll get one for £3k less!
Exactly what I’ll be doing 😉
The sound is very deceiving, sounds like a 125cc yet it packs a mean punch 😂
😂😂 really surprise people when you come round the corner
@@SamVBikes i can imagine hey. Lol
Thanks for the video. Cheers
What do you mean if you buy one?
You meant when you buy one.
😂😂 yeah you're right.. not sure why I'm lying to myself
I just leave mine in Sport mode and road bias throttle mode.
I reckon that would be the best way to ride this too
Nah. Sport or track throttle and send it! It's like any crazy fast bike... eventually you get used to it. A hr test ride on damp rds isn't enough time to adapt to a super duke imo.
Yeah definitely need to adjust to it. We had the bikes for nearly 3 hours and it still wasn't enough. Even coming off Rally Mode throttle on a tuned super adventure still was a shock 😂
@@bikerboi1983 yeah you definitely get used to it, I leave my 1290 in performance mode which is essentially the same as track mode but you can still use Bluetooth and GPS etc.
Ahh good to know the difference on those modes too! I couldn't work out what the difference was ha
The new engine is 1350cc, giving an increase of only 49cc. The 1390 name is misleading this time
Yeah, I guess a lot of manufacturers will do similar when it comes to CC vs name of the bike but its normally closer. KTMs always have the 90 at the end as part of their branding, so I understand why they did it. Having said that, to increase to a 1390cc engine or close would have needed a new block by the sound of it, which is more weight.
Destroyer
I've never liked KTMs, but now my Street Triple is looking a bit boring.
Haha! The Street Triples are awesome bikes
life span of rear tyre = 1 hour
Maybe 2 if you're in a cafe for an hour 😂
That front light is horrible!!! And until Keep Taking Money fixes the lousy software ghosts and changes its appalling lack of customer service and support I'll pass..... Indefinitely
Oddly I really like it in person. Think we are going to see far more projector headlights in the coming iterations of models. I'm sure I read somewhere that it's an EU regulation which is pushing that.
The software seems to be getting there, but not perfect, but that seems to be pretty similar to most of the other high-tech bikes on the market. As for the customer service, yeah.. They can be really hit and miss! I've had nothing but brilliant service from them, but know others have had nothing but pain!
Sounds epic but pretty pointless for anything but the track. When are you ever going to utilise 180hp without breaking the law... not to mention the questionable reliability. I get it, we all want high hp bikes for waving our willys at bike meets, but you won't ever utilise the bike fully on a UK road.
Agreed, although all top end naked's are now... 210bhp M1000R, 208bhp StreetFighter, even the famously 'underpowered' MT10 is around 170bhp. This sits in the middle of the pack for power. Everyone has wanted more power, more electronics, more more more... so the manufacturers have followed. Recently, many people, including myself, seem to be leaning towards the middle-weights as better road bikes so I'd assume the ceiling will start to drop again.
In terms of reliability, time will tell. The Gen 3 Super Adv's have had a large improvement over the Gen 2, so now this has the matching electronics suite, I'd like to think the Gen 4 SDR would be much better. Obviously you'll get new model teething issues, and your Friday afternoon bikes like you do in any manufacturer
@SamVBikes 100%. Look at the new GS. No end of issues.
I had no end off issues with my 1290 and handed it back after a legal battle and won. Never again.. I don't care what people say. It's a coin toss on reliability. I hear more issues on KTM than any other manufacturer..
I have an XSR900 and Tuono 1100 and in all fairness, I love them both but never utilise the tuono, just wanted one for the noise.. I'm tempted to sell the XSR900 to buy a new Tracer 9 GT+ for my touring bike. Don't see the point in adventure bikes when 98% of UK owners don't go off road and just want big hp/heavy bikes for waving their willy's around at bike meets.
No reason to upgrade either. The torque is the best feature and I can’t never use all of it at the top end. Mid range and low end torque on the SDR is its best feature, but it’s actually awesome on the road in traffic. Never have to shift.
These types of bikes give you the giggle factor. Once you’ve experienced one you’ll never go for anything else. Loving my SF V2 but might upgrade to this 👍🏽
I thought the same thing with the Hayabusa boy was I wrong you can definitely take advantage of the horsepower when you get used to the bike and your skill level gets better and the bike stays fun to ride that's the biggest Advantage it's not boring so I totally disagree with you.
Ugly bikes but at least they have an identity. The reliability seems an issue though so not for me.
We will see with reliability. My Super Adventure has been faultless. Obviously there will be some 'Friday Afternoon Bikes' but these new ones seem much better
What a rubbish review of a good bike
Appreciate your kind words 🫶🏼
Such a pleasure riding this❣❣
