ou know those times when it seems you've been waiting
forever to get what you want? If you've been in the market
for a small capacity ADV bike from the guys who arguably
crafted the modern market, you know what I'm talking about.
It's been a number of years since we first heard about the
KTM 390 Adventure (I recall hearing murmurs of this bike's exis-
tence way back in 2017), and since then the mini-ADV class has
seen an influx of models in the Kawasaki Versys 300X, BMW G
310 GS, and a favorite at Cycle News in the Honda CB500X.
Each of those bikes represents a sector within a sector, and
with KTM's hat thrown in the ring, there's now a small capacity
steed to suit pretty much every type of rider.

It's been a long time coming, but the
KTM 390 Adventure is finally here.
