The two travel enduros have set a new class benchmark in terms of their performance, technology and high specification straight from the dealership floor. Both bikes boast 160hp and a 140 Nm of torque while managed by sophisticated electronic rider aids, such as Motorcycle Stability Control (MSC), which offers lean angle-sensitive ABS and traction control while a full colour 6.5" TFT display, cornering sensitive ABS, cornering lights and RACE ON keyless ignition system are just some of the many features fitted as standard.
While both 1290s slightly differ in their approach to adventure riding – the S more suited to tarmac and the taller R for those who like to stray far from the beaten path – the tactic from KTM when it comes to official accessories is the same for both bikes. Developed alongside the machines from the very beginning, the 2017
PowerParts collection is divided into Protection, Performance, Software, Comfort, Styling, Navigation, Luggage Systems and Anti-Theft Protection.
Consisting of over 150 items for each Adventure, there’s a varied choice of luggage systems, options to personalise the ergonomics further, brackets for mounting GPS systems or phones, right through to adding alarms, auxiliary lights, engine guards and skid plates, to enhancing the style with carbon and anodised items as well as a stunning lightweight Akrapovič exhaust.
Riders can head to
www.ktm.com and use the online configurator to create a specification that meets their exact requirements, including choosing from pre-defined Touring, Comfort, Sound & Style and Rally packages that group themed products and save money when purchased together. This is where a dream Adventure can come to life on screen to give an idea of how it will look and cost before heading to a KTM dealer.
Head to
