Thanks for the first honest and sensibly balanced review of the this bike, the thinking man's choice.I love the accurate comment,'the guys who buy adventure bikes and never take them off road are the same guys who buy four wheel drives and never take them off road'. Spot on!
Super jealous... This one looked like a blast. I will own a KTM at some point and it'll probably be this one. Awesome video. Stoked to hear about the new suspension.
Im torn between the 1090r and the 1190r, what do you ( The reviewer ) and viewers think about them dropping the MSC on the 1090R? Good Move, or should they have kept it?

Good lad ;)
Great review and thanks for the laughter! 👍
Bummer, no center stand comes stock. Oh well, I'll be ordering one for sure.
Nice work, Rennie!
How can you go wrong I have a 690 and I love that one more is always better👍🏻 Great review thanks
Thanks for the video, dream bike for me
...nice indepth review! Much appreciated!
You sure have a rough job, Rennie! ;D
Looks a blast.. Great review
1290 R review next ?
It is 1050 cm3 but is it the 1050 engine they had in Europe? My understanding is that this is an entirely new engine.
Yes it is a new engine. This 1050 doesn't have anything to do with the old 1050 Euro-only model -- Rennie
Did they fix the hairdryer on your leg heat issue from the rear exhaust header the 1190 suffered from?
You do still get a bit of heat, but after two days on board in the desert in full ADV gear, I didn't find it too bad.
Pretty sure an ECU flash with a slightly richer fueling map would reduce heat. Good ol' Euro4.
