Is all that extra cost worth it for the KTM 890 Adventure R over the standard model for mostly street riding?
While the KTM 890 Adventure R is often lauded for its off-road ability, many riders are attracted to its aggressive looks even if they have no intention of testing its off-road capabilities. Fitted with upgraded suspension, a taller seat height, and more, the R model also has a rally mode. But these upgrades are pricey. Is the R model overkill for those that spend most of their time on pavement but want the ability to explore dirt occasionally? Or does the better suspension and more dirt-focused ergonomics make for better all-around performance, even on the street?
In truth, the standard 890 Adventure is more than enough for mostly street riding. The R's higher seat and stiffer suspension may actually work against long highway stretches.
