After the Dakar 2006 for the first time on a bike again, the three KTM factory riders were impressed by the the new KTM 990 Adventure. Marc Coma, Cyril Despres and Giovanni Sala didn't miss the chance to test the latest model at the press presentation on Fuerteventura/Spain. All three agreed, this bike is fantastic, off- and on-road.

The KTM 990 Adventure comes in two varieties: the KTM 990 Adventure S, the ultra sporty model with longer suspension travel and new 'Dakar-Design' blue optics sourcing its origins in rally sport. The KTM 990 Adventure is a touch lower than the companion S model and features improved safety factors through its ABS. The 990 Adventure comes in two variations of the new two-color design: orange-grey and black-grey."
