The 2018 KTM 1090 Adventure R is an off-road-oriented adventure enduro with a 1050 cc V-twin, a trellis frame and 220 mm WP suspension at both ends. Bosch ABS with a disengageable off-road mode and traction control are fitted, along with several riding modes. Reviewers describe it as a cheaper, lighter-feeling alternative to the 1190 Adventure R, with less power and no cornering ABS.
