KTM announced the availability of its 2024 1290 Super Adventure S and Super Adventure R models. They are expected to reach dealer floors in December.
The bikes return unchanged except for the new gray (pictured above, on the Super Adventure S) and orange liveries (on the Super Adventure R).
KTM 1290 Super Adventure S is tuned for roads, capable of coping with dust that coincides with gravel and loose ground, while the ‘R’ is orientated for hardcore off-road adventurers who want and need a premium kit to withstand any landscape or terrain. Prices for the Super Adventures are not yet confirmed. CN
