KTM 1290 Super Adventure S Overview

The KTM 1290 Super Adventure S is a high-output adventure tourer for riders seeking highway performance, semi-active suspension and touring electronics. Its 158 bhp is above the BMW R 1300 GS’s 145 bhp; four riding modes, cruise control and a bi-directional quickshifter add flexibility. The 23-litre tank pairs with claimed 17.5 kmpl mileage for fuel-stop planning, though mileage is a manufacturer claim.

At 250 kg with an 869 mm seat, it is a heavy, tall motorcycle; shorter riders and stop-start commuters may find those dimensions a drawback. Dual-channel ABS helps prevent either wheel locking under braking, while traction and stability control add safety assistance. It is priced below the BMW R 1300 GS but above the Aprilia Tuareg 660. Its claimed mileage is lower than the BMW’s 21 kmpl, making fuel economy a trade-off.

  • 158 bhp and 140 Nm provide strong listed output for highway touring.
  • Four riding modes offer Sport, Street, Rain and Off-Road settings.
  • Dual-channel ABS helps prevent either wheel locking during hard braking.
  • WP semi-active suspension has preload adjustment at both ends.
  • The 23-litre tank pairs with claimed 17.5 kmpl mileage for fuel-stop planning.
  • The 7-inch TFT includes Bluetooth, turn-by-turn navigation and distance-to-empty information.

What we like

  • Strong listed power and four selectable riding modes.
  • Dual-channel ABS, traction control and stability control are included.
  • Bi-directional quickshifter and cruise control support touring convenience.
  • TFT display includes Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation.

What could be better

  • The 869 mm seat height may challenge shorter riders.
  • Its 250 kg kerb weight is a consideration for frequent stop-start use.
  • Claimed 17.5 kmpl mileage is below the BMW R 1300 GS’s claimed 21 kmpl.
  • There is no under-seat storage.

Best for: It suits riders seeking a powerful, well-equipped adventure tourer who are comfortable with a tall, heavy motorcycle and its claimed fuel economy.
