Nice bike! Congratulations.

Best regards,

was it like a $1.50 a cc?

Looks like a nice bike. I would want wider rubber myself on a bike that size.

Congrats

Sweet bike!!! Congrats. KTM makes some great bikes! They (KTM) are advancing quite a bit in the world of Grand Prix racing. If you are at all interested in motorcycle racing next Sunday they are racing at KTM’s home track in Austria for round one of a double header at the Red Bull Ring. About 1/2 of every lap there is raced at full throttle! It’s a FAST track! Cool

If it’s anything like last year it should be a hell of a race. This next race will be the first race in a while to be open to the public and allow full capacity for spectators!

The 890R is a nice piece, congratulations Valpo. Looking forward to your ongoing impression.


No car is as much fun to drive, as any motorcycle is to ride.

Great looking bike! The 390 adventure was on my short list a few months ago. I can't imagine how much of a beast the 890 is compared to that. Minimal riding during Phoenix summers but I bet Indiana weather is about perfect right now. Have fun riding.

Nice bike. I gave up riding 15 years ago. So many morons on the road not paying attention. Wanted to die later in life.

Very Nice! Back in the late 1970s I had a Honda XL650 street/trail that was a lot of fun - just be careful about dropping a foot down when you're riding railroad tracks.

Nice bike, from a new Honda Africa Twin owner!

Thanks all. It is a huge step up or down depending on how you look at it from my Super Tenere. It’s about 100 lbs lighter and the same horsepower. The wife and I went for a ride this morning on some gravel roads with some bumps and suspension seems a world better and I definitely like the cruise control. It definitely has the power to lift the front end under throttle.
