KTM 490 Adv release imminent?

[Grunder]

Ek sal maar aanhou droom. Die 690/701 bly maar buite my bereik.


Maar as ek ooit die geleentheid kry sal dit die bike wees. Maar ek hou meer van die 701 se kleur

They are still building a 600 plus thumper which is great, everyone else has given up on them

I am not the biggest KTM fan, but that 390 may tick many boxes.
Have been keeping an eye on the news

I am not the biggest KTM fan

Are you taking something for that?

 

[Wildwindfr]

May need to ride one.
Biggest reason may be envy as I cant afford one! Haha

Is the 390 motor really that revvy ? Can be a problem with slow tech riding ? The power on it is good.

Think this threads heading needs an update ....

I wouldn’t be too surprised if this turns out to be the 490. Difficult to tell from the spy shots but it may surprise us as did the Suzuki 650 upgrade to the 800.
