2016 KTM 1190 Adventure R

With full dirt-ready wheels – 21-inch front, 18-inch rear – the 2016 KTM 1190 Adventure R is designed as the ultimate dirt adventure bike. Putting out nearly as much power as its 1290 big brother, and including many of the electronic features (though not active suspension), the Adventure R also is a formidable touring bike (just add panniers). Handling is excellent, and the six-gallon tank has lots of range for those excursions into the unexpected.
