Overview[edit | edit source]
KTM 1090 Adventure R
The KTM 1090 Adventure R stares down anything in its path.
Bespoke WP suspension, offroad wheels and a tough yet fuel-efficient
engine are ready to rumble. Decades of rally raid victories roar
within. As shrewd as it is chiseled, this bike uses the same
state-of-the-art technology as the KTM 1290 ADVENTURE R and even
though its engine capacity is smaller, its still big on power: 125
hp (92 kW). Thats 23 more than Fabrizio Meonis Dakar winning 950.
The world is yours - Devour it.
The KTM 1090 Adventure R powered by the same LC8 1,050 cc V-twin engine which, in normal form, makes 125 horsepower (30 more than the current 1050) and 80 pound-feet of torque. KTM will also be offering a 95 horsepower version, which can restricted to 47 horsepower for the A2 licensing system. The 1090 Adventure R share the same steel trellis frame, slipper clutch, traction control, ABS, riding modes, and twin screen display and both share the same six gallon fuel tank. They each get a Brembo braking system, featuring 320 mm discs, radially mounted four-piston calipers, and Bosch 9M+ ABS
Engine
The advanced V2 engine with a 1,050cc displacement supplies everything an
adventure bike could ever need: powerful acceleration, real punch for fully
loaded touring and 125 hp (92 kW) peak power for when the chips are down. Low
fuel consumption and long service intervals of 15,000 km mean the bike is easy
on the wallet too. And did you know that KTM easily clocks up 1.5 million
kilometers every year while testing their new street bike engines? Advanced, but
proven technology make the 1090 twin an excellent extreme travel companion. Twin
spark ignition lowers fuel consumption and emissions and ensures smooth running
and superior power from minimum revs, Ride-by-wire ensures perfect application
of the plentiful and readily available torque, Traction control (TC) assures
sporty yet completely controllable drive on every surface, the slipper clutch
prevents rear wheel chatter and reduces required hand force at the lever when
changing gears.
Chassis
In adding the R, we add a promise: excellent offroad abilities. So you get a
21 inch wire-spoked wheel at the front, 18 inch at the rear, floating on 220 mm
of fully adjustable WP suspension. On top of that, KTMs signature tubular
trellis frame, steel crash bars and a high strength, die-cast, open-lattice
swingarm are more eager than ever to earn their stripes. And thats just the
chassis side of things.
Wheels and Tires
Offroad standards demand suitable tools, so we fit the KTM 1090 ADVENTURE R
in-house with our patented, wire-spoked and tubeless 21″/18″ wheels. Those who
want to ride off into the desert will find a wide selection of suitable tires in
these dimensions. But you might just as well start that trip right off the
dealer floor; the standard Continental TKC 80 Twinduros, sized 90/90-21 and
150/70-18, are durable, versatile and very happy to take you off the beaten
track.
Power-to-weight-ratio
The combination of lightweight chassis engineering and a compact but powerful
engine take the KTM 1090 ADVENTURE R to the top of its class in terms of
power-to-weight ratio and ride dynamics. Its weight of only 230 kg, while
carrying a substantial 23 liters of fuel, makes the KTM 1090 ADVENTURE R in
typical KTM style one of the lightest motorcycles in its segment. Add an
outstanding geometry, well-balanced stiffness distribution and high quality
suspension components and you end up with a bike that can handle almost
anything. This also boosts safety, since it is far easier to fling a
lightweight, nimble motorcycle around a source of danger than a heavy one.
Frame
The chrome-molybdenum steel trellis frame makes a major contribution to the
bikes excellent chassis geometry. Its a rugged, laser-cut, robot-welded thing
of beauty with a glorious surface finish. And at only 9.8 kg, it helps to keep
the total, unfueled weight under 210 kg. 207, to be precise. Every kg counts.
Suspension
A robust 48 mm UPSD fork with extra stiff springs in the front, a PDS shock
absorber in the rear. All made by WP, all fully adjustable, all happy to take a
serious beating. And theyll make you enjoy it too. Suspension travel: 220/220
mm.
Swingarm
The die-cast, open-lattice swingarm is not only particularly light, its also
precisely manufactured. The design has been optimized for stiffness and
stability while still offering excellent flex characteristics.
Brakes Precise. Powerful. Stunning. Just as you would expect from a set of Brembo brakes. Up front youll find twin 320 mm discs, radially mounted, 4-piston fixed calipers and a radial master cylinder. At the rear, excess speed is taken care of by a generously dimensioned 267 mm disc. And in case of an emergency, Boschs two-channel 9M+ ABS is there to save the day. Free your mind ABS The Bosch two-channel 9M+ anti-lock braking system on the KTM 1090 ADVENTURE R ensures extremely short braking distances with optimum vehicle control. The system modulates brake pressure in such a way that wheel lock-up is prevented and the bikes tendency to lift the rear is minimized when braking hard on surfaces with good grip. In its Offroad mode, only the rear wheel is freed from ABS intervention, putting the rider in control of braking slides. Feeling pro? Just deactivate the system entirely. Traction control (TC) Developed in close collaboration with Bosch, this safety feature reacts in a matter of milliseconds if the rear wheel tends to spin out of control. As smooth as it is quick, the system closes the throttle valves in order to regain grip. Compelling yet completely controllable drive on all surfaces is guaranteed. As standard, the traction control (TC) offers four different ride modes, selected using the multi-functional switch on the left handlebar grip. Sport allows respectable drifts and a perceptible amount of slippage, Street keeps things smooth for comfortable, controllable riding with full engine power, Rain is all about early intervention and maximum grip in the wet and Offroad allows up to 100% of slippage i.e. double the wheel speed for ambitious offroad use. And thats not the end of it. Daredevils, we give you: the off-switch. Strong and smooth Ride-by-wire Its the guarantee of a smooth throttle response, more than simply the absence of a throttle cable. The KTM 1090 ADVENTURE Rs ride-by-wire system ensures perfect application of the readily available and plentiful torque. It also electronically translates the throttle commands of the rider into throttle valve positions perfectly suited to the riding conditions. The RBW system is fully compliant with the strict DIN 26262 safety standard from the automobile sector.
Slipper clutch
Not only does the slipper clutch open when the engine back-torque becomes too
high, it also assists when you open up the throttle. The former prevents
destabilizing rear wheel chatter when braking sharply or decelerating; the
latter reduces the lever force required for changing gear, allowing the clutch
to be controlled with one trigger happy finger saving you energy while riding.
Cylinder heads
An absolutely key element in the smooth power delivery of the 75° V-twin is each
cylinders state-of-the-art 4-valve cylinder head. These combine twin plug
ignition, flow-optimized ports and a slick low-friction valve drive train with
cams from each cylinders twin overhead camshafts driving DLC-coated cam
followers.
DLC coating
DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) is an extremely hard, durable and tribologically (i.e.
in terms of sliding behavior) particularly well-suited coating, that KTM uses in
many parts (cam followers, piston pins, etc.). Our engines love it.
Twin ignition
The twin plug ignition system controls the two differently sized spark plugs in
each cylinder head independently of each other in such a way that more efficient
combustion and a smoother, optimally controlled combustion sequence are achieved
at all times. The result: even more and even better controlled power, lower fuel
consumption, and lower emissions. Thats nice for everyone.
Pistons
The forged piston design of the KTM 1090 ADVENTURE R, borrowed from Formula 1
technology, results in a high loading capacity, despite the extremely short and
lightweight format. They are five millimeters smaller in diameter compared with
those of the KTM 1290 SUPER ADVENTURE R and a whole 50 grams lighter. This
reduces reciprocating weight and helps maximize the responsiveness and
free-revving nature of the engine. The piston skirts have an additional
state-of-the-art, Grafal® finish. Not only does this minimize friction, it is
also particularly hard-wearing which makes a positive contribution to
durability.
Bang on the money
Outstanding package price
A pretty price tag doesnt have to mean poor specs: Fully adjustable PDS shock
absorber, ABS, Traction Control (TC), Multi-function dashboard, Daytime Running
Light (DRL), Automatic Turn Indicator Reset (ATIR), Adjustable ergonomics,
Adjustable windshield height, Immobilizer, Aluminum handlebar (ball-burnished
and tapered), Luggage rack and case brackets, Handguards, Steel crash bars,
Offroad Pack. You do the math.
Increased fuel economy
Although still powerful and well equipped, the KTM 1090 ADVENTURE R consumes
considerably less fuel than the KTM 1290 ADVENTURE R, subject to riding style
and terrain. The impressive 23-liter tank capacity gives a comfortable range for
long distance traveling. How does 350 kilometers on a tank sound? Like fun, we
reckon.
Long service intervals
A unique mix of the highest quality components combined with a fully developed
and reliable engine allows extremely long service intervals of 15,000 km. Thats
a lot of adventures.
Versatile and ergonomic
At home on any road
Relaxed touring? No problem. Scorching up and down the backroads? Yes, please.
Feel free to throw in a big, bad stretch of dirt on the way. And whats
particularly impressive is that the KTM 1090 ADVENTURE Rs different guises
result in virtually no perceptible compromises. When you ride relaxed, the bike
follows suit. There is no overly sharp responsiveness or a taut chassis setup.
But if you do want to turn up the wick, you wont find yourself riding a rocking
horse either. The many riding modes seamlessly fit to wherever you might find
yourself. Whether thats an alpine pass, a bone-shaking track, winding curves or
simply the urban jungle, the 1090 R is the ultimate Travel Enduro for all your
adventures. From the backyard to the outback.
Ergonomics
At KTM, individualists are welcome. The bikes ergonomics can be adjusted to
suit the preferences and stature of any rider, wherever they may roam: Two
handlebar clamping positions: horizontal +/- 10 mm, Two footpeg positions: 10 mm
up and back (diagonally), Hand levers with 5 reach settings
Seat
This is where youll hopefully spend a lot of time, so the seat has to
provide support, feedback and freedom of movement. Thanks to KTMs
state-of-the-art 3D foam padding, the KTM 1090 ADVENTURE R has your back. No
matter if your ride is to the local shops or the ones across the desert, both
rider and passenger will get there in comfort.
Adjustable windshield
The windshields height can be changed as quickly as you can change your mind,
thanks to the easily operated clamping mechanism.
Mission control
Dashboard
The KTM 1090 ADVENTURE R supplies its rider with all necessary and desirable
information on a state-of-the-art, clearly arranged instrument cluster from
automotive manufacturer VDO. Core data is displayed on a central gauge that
consists of an analog rev counter with an integrated, adjustable shift light and
an LCD display. This display is dominated by a digital speedometer and
supplemented with a digital clock, a gear indicator, bar graphs for coolant
temperature and fuel level plus the display for the selected riding mode. A
second LCD display is positioned to the left of the central instrument, which
displays the adjustable features: Favorites page, Ride modes, Riding conditions
page for additional info, e.g. outside temperature, onboard voltage, various
trips, average speed, average and current fuel consumption, range and the
distance to your next service. Everything is tidy, clean, clear, intuitive and
simple to operate even on the go.
Menu switch
Different modes for the various assistance systems can be selected using a menu
switch on the left side of the handlebar. Its very simple and intuitive: up
and down through the menu selection, select the desired menu item with the
left button, confirm it with the right. Job done.
Excell Offroad
Offroad ABS
The Offroad ABS mode allows the rider to block the rear wheel as and when
required a prerequisite for committed offroad riding and deliberately executed
slides. The ABS function remains active on the front wheel.
Offroad TC
The Offroad TC mode allows up to 100% slippage i.e. double rear wheel speed
for ambitious offroad use. Turn it on and master controlled drifts in no time.
Offroad ride mode
Once this mode is engaged, the ride-by-wire limits the throttle response and top
power, putting you in full control wherever you take your bike. Offroad TC is
enabled at the same time. Awesome trail scorching awaits.
