Our take on this /// Verdict
The KTM 790 Adventure is a standout in the adventure bike segment, offering a perfect blend of on-road comfort and off-road capability. What impresses me most is its refined engine, which delivers a smooth and predictable power output, making it highly usable in various riding conditions. The addition of a 20 heavier crankshaft has significantly improved the low-end delivery, making technical climbs much easier. The bikes suspension, although non-adjustable, provides a plush and comfortable ride, especially compared to its larger sibling, the 890 Adventure R. The advanced electronics, including ABS, MTC, and the optional Tech Pack with features like Quickshifter and cruise control, make it a highly versatile and safe ride. Overall, the 790 Adventure is an excellent choice for those seeking a balance between long-distance touring and off-road adventures.
Price
In India, the KTM 790 Adventure is priced competitively to appeal to a wide range of adventure bike enthusiasts. The ex-showroom price for the 2024 KTM 790 Adventure is around 9.99 lakhs, though this can vary slightly depending on the state and local taxes. On-road prices, including registration, insurance, and other costs, can range from 11.5 lakhs to 12.5 lakhs. This pricing makes it an attractive option when compared to other bikes in its class, especially considering the advanced features and performance it offers. The optional Tech Pack, which unlocks additional features like Quickshifter and cruise control, adds around 70,000 to the ex-showroom price, but it is well worth the investment for the enhanced riding experience it provides.

The 2024 KTM 790 Adventure has been reintroduced with a lower price point of $10,999, making it an attractive option for adventure riders on a budget. This bike is now manufactured by KTMs partners, CFMoto, in China. The new model retains many of the advanced features of its predecessor, including a 6-axis IMU, cornering traction control, and multiple ride modes. I think this move by KTM is a great way to make adventure biking more accessible.
Tuesday, 17 September 2024 05:20 PM
KTM has updated the engine of the 2024 790 Adventure with a 20% heavier crankshaft, which enhances low RPM and low speed performance, making it smoother and more efficient. The bike also features reworked Dell’Orto throttle bodies and a new knock control system, allowing better tolerance for low octane fuel. This refinement should make the bike more appealing to both on-road and off-road riders.
Monday, 19 August 2024 02:22 PM
The 2024 KTM 790 Adventure comes equipped with a full suite of electronic rider aids, including ABS, motorcycle traction control (MTC), and multiple ride modes such as Street, Offroad, and Rain, as well as an optional Rally mode.

The suspension on the 2024 KTM 790 Adventure is provided by WP Apex units, offering 7.9 inches of travel at both the front and rear, although it is non-adjustable apart from a 10-position preload cam in the rear. This setup provides a plush and comfortable ride, especially on-road, but may not be as aggressive as the fully adjustable suspension on the 890 Adventure R.
Tuesday, 21 May 2024 12:55 AM
KTM has redesigned the 2024 790 Adventure to be more street-oriented, making it a more cost-conscious alternative to the 890 Adventure R. The bike features an adjustable seat height, a larger aluminum engine guard, and reshaped plastics to protect the tank and seat. The new front mask and integrated fairing also provide more wind protection. I believe these changes will make the bike more appealing to a wider range of riders.
Tuesday, 16 April 2024 01:00 AM
The 2024 KTM 790 Adventure boasts a physical size that is smaller and lighter compared to other twin-cylinder adventure bikes, making it less intimidating, especially for new riders venturing into off-road adventures. The bikes low center of gravity and off-road oriented Pirelli Scorpion STR tires enhance its stability and handling in challenging terrain.
Monday, 25 March 2024 07:46 AM
KTMs decision to partner with CFMoto to manufacture the 2024 790 Adventure has allowed them to significantly reduce the price without compromising on quality. The bike is now priced at $10,999, which is about 10% less than some 500cc dual-sport bikes, making it an excellent value in the adventure motorcycling segment.
Saturday, 10 February 2024 07:22 PM
The 2024 KTM 790 Adventure includes several optional features such as KTMconnect with Bluetooth connectivity, Quickshifter+, heated grips, a heated seat, and cruise control.

KTM has addressed previous concerns about fuel efficiency and low octane fuel tolerance in the 2024 790 Adventure. The bike now features improved combustion and better fuel efficiency, thanks to the reworked throttle bodies and the new knock control system. This makes the bike more reliable for long-distance travel.
Friday, 15 December 2023 06:13 PM
The 2024 KTM 790 Adventure has been praised for its handling and comfort, particularly on-road. The bikes suspension setup, although non-adjustable, provides a comfortable ride and is more than adequate for most adventure riding needs. I think this balance between comfort and capability is a key selling point for this bike.
Mileage
Tuesday, 19 November 2024 06:43 AM
The fuel efficiency of the KTM 790 Adventure is quite impressive, especially given its performance and capabilities. On average, the bike delivers a mileage of around 25-30 kml in mixed riding conditions, which is commendable for an adventure bike. During long-distance touring, I have observed that it can achieve up to 28 kml on highways, while off-road and city riding might bring it down to around 22-25 kml. The 20-liter fuel tank provides a decent range of approximately 500-600 kilometers, making it suitable for long trips without frequent fuel stops. This balance of performance and fuel efficiency makes the 790 Adventure a practical choice for both daily commuting and extended adventures.

Discussions and Questions KTM 790 Adventure
What is the launch date of KTM 790 Adventure and KTM 890 Adventure in India?
17 April 2025 20:30
The KTM 790 Adventure is expected to launch in India on June 15, 2025. There is no announced launch date for the KTM 890 Adventure in India, as the current focus is on the 790 Adventure model.
Did KTM price themselves out of the market with the 790 Adventure, or is it worth the premium over Japanese rivals?
13 January 2025 06:56
If you are mostly on the road, it is not worth it. Japanese alternatives are better value for money.
Is the KTM 790 Adventure's fuel tank a game changer or a gimmick?
13 January 2025 06:56
It's not just hype. While they are noticeably easier to maneuver in tight spots, Arduinos can be very cumbersome and cumbersome to work with.
How does the KTM 790 Adventure fare two-up and on long-distance trips?
13 January 2025 06:56
It’s a touring beast, with the right luggage setup. Used to cross Europe two up, no problem.
Can the KTM 790 Adventure be relied upon for long-distance touring?
13 January 2025 06:56
2 years with no major problems, but there are small ones far more often than on my Japanese bikes.
