Is the fuel consumption of 6.9 Litres/100km an accurate figure for real-world conditions? Also, how does the bike perform at its top speed of 200 km/h, and how stable is it while cornering at high speeds considering its dry weight of 228 kg and wheelbase?
Hello Mr. Tan Ah Kow, thank you for your question. The mentioned fuel consumption of 6.9 Litres/100km is based on the manufacturer’s data and can vary based on real-world conditions such as rider’s weight, riding style, and road conditions. As for the performance and stability at high speeds and while cornering, the bike is designed with high power and advanced brakes for better control during such conditions. But as with all riding, it is always recommended to maintain a speed that is within your control and follow safe riding practices. The weight and wheelbase of the bike provide it a certain level of stability but actual experience can differ based on different factors. We recommend visiting our showroom for a closer look and to get more personalised advice based on your requirements.
Is the ABS braking system accurate in all weather conditions? Also, how good is the fuel economy during city rides?
Hello Suresh Gupta, thank you for your review and inquiry. The ABS braking system of the KTM Super Adventure 1290 is designed to be efficient and reliable in every weather condition. Its purpose is to avoid locking up during braking, hence increasing the motorcycle’s ability to maintain traction with the road surface. As for fuel economy during city rides, it largely depends on several factors including individual riding style and traffic conditions. However, on an average it consumes around 6.9 litres per 100 km. We hope this information is helpful and please feel free to reach us for any more questions.
This beast is absolutely a dream for every rider who loves to cover long distances. The powerful engine, combined with excellent ABS brakes and super comfortable seating, delivers an unmatched touring experience. After using it for several weeks now, I can confidently say that it’s worth every penny. Amazed at its performance and ease of handling, I’d definitely recommend others to try it.
This tourer is comfortable to ride, and I’ve been thoroughly enjoying my long rides. I’m impressed with the ABS braking system, plus the horsepower is just incredible. In comparison to other bikes I’ve used in the past, I have to say this one stands out in terms of power and comfort.
Unlike other tourers I’ve ridden, the performance of this one is remarkably smooth and consistent, offering a brilliant riding experience. It’s well worth the price and I’d definitely recommend it to fellow tourer enthusiasts.
Does the bike’s high horsepower affect the bike’s stability? What’s the maintenance cost like for such high-performance tourers?
Hi Malik Hamzah, Thanks for your review. The higher horsepower of the KTM Super Adventure 1290 ABS does not negatively affect the bike’s stability, thanks to its strong build and advanced suspension systems. This ensures a smooth and steady ride even at higher speeds. As for maintenance costs, they can be slightly higher considering it’s a high-performance bike. However, regular maintenance ensures optimum performance and longevity. We recommend contacting a KTM dealership for specific details on the maintenance costs. Have a great ride!
I am considering purchasing this bike. However, with a dry weight of 228 kg, wouldn’t it be a bit on the heavier side? How easy is maneuvering and handling, especially for riders of shorter stature? Also, how easy is maintaining the bike, particularly the engine and brake system?
Hi Chen Wei, thank you for your interest in our KTM Super Adventure 1290 ABS 2015. Indeed, at 228 kg, the bike could be a bit on the heavier side. However, it is engineered with a low center of gravity, which significantly aids in maneuverability and stability. Riders of shorter stature also have less to worry about because the seat height can be adjusted to ensure comfortable positioning. Furthermore, with regular servicing and checks, maintaining the bike, engine, and brake system is manageable. Regular checks will ensure that the ABS braking system and the liquid-cooled, DOHC, 4-stroke engine remain in top condition. However, all maintenance should be done by a professionally trained mechanic. We hope this answers your queries. Looking forward to your purchase.
As an avid tourer, this beast exceeds all my expectations. It is powerful, comfortable, and its ABS brake system is fantastic. The ride is smooth and the bike feels durable and well-made. I am pleased with this investment and highly recommend it to other tourer enthusiasts.
The value for money is impressive. A brilliant tourer with excellent ABS brakes and reliable functionality. I’ve had no technical issues so far, and the performance is top-notch. I wish the fuel consumption was a bit lower though.
I’m planning lengthy travels, and I’m curious, how suitable is this bike for very long distance rides? Also, how well does the Pirelli Scorpion Rally tyres hold up to varied road conditions?
Dear Rishi Raj, Thank you for inquiring into the KTM Super Adventure 1290 ABS 2015. The bike is equipped specifically with tourer enthusiasts in mind, hence making it a perfect choice for long distance travels. It is powered by a 1290cc engine promising strong and reliable performance throughout your journey. Discussing the Pirelli Scorpion Rally tyres, they are highly resilient to varied road conditions, providing the bike with maximum grip and balance. Nevertheless, it would always be beneficial to periodically verify the tyre conditions to ensure a safe and smooth ride. Happy riding!
I’m interested in this bike, but I’m curious to know about the Pirelli Scorpion Rally tyres. How are they in terms of grip and durability? What kind of mileage can one expect out of these tyres in typical touring conditions? Also, how comfortably does it accommodate a pillion rider?
