KTM 1290 Super Adventure S 2021
Em suma, a KTM 1290 Super Adventure S, com capacidade para longas distâncias, foi concebida para uma viagem a dois, em que o condutor quase nunca tem de pensar para onde vai. Gosta de secções de autoestrada, passagens rápidas em estradas rurais ou passagens sinuosas de montanha nas curvas mais apertadas, tanto como de estradas não pavimentadas com a ocasional secção de gravilha áspera, onde é principalmente o condutor ou a sua rotina que decidem até onde podem ir. A maneabilidade, que foi melhorada em comparação com a antecessora devido ao depósito mais baixo (e, portanto, ao centro de gravidade), também marca pontos aqui. O chassis eletrónico lida perfeitamente com as superfícies variáveis de uma viagem e transmite sempre transparência, a soberania do motor em todas as situações. Pronto para a corrida - ou também: Pronto para corridas de longa distância!

A arma polivalente da Baviera que também pode lidar facilmente com ambiciosos passeios fora de estrada. Graças a mais 2 centímetros de curso de suspensão e mais 10 litros de combustível no depósito, nenhum passeio é demasiado longe e nenhum desafio é demasiado grande. O centro de gravidade comparativamente baixo ajuda no manuseamento e o motor mais potente aproxima-a muito mais da R 1250 GS normal em termos de dinâmica de condução. Na nova geração do modelo 1250, oferece não só o motor revisto, que proporciona uma capacidade de condução ainda melhor, mas também um equipamento de série e segurança adicionais. O concorrente mais feroz da Adventure está, no entanto, à espreita na sua própria casa, porque mesmo a GS convencional e menos dispendiosa já é uma excelente polivalente.
