KTM 1290 Super Adventure S Preview
O
ne of the bikes we're sadly
not going to get this year (but
we will next year) is the revamped
KTM 1290 Super Adventure S.
KTM's grand sports touring
machine has been comprehen-
sively overhauled and comes with
so many new features including a
new chassis, next-gen semi-active
WP suspension, adaptive cruise
control, revamped LC8 motor and
new ergonomics.
KTM's Street Marketing Man-
ager, Riaan Neveling and KTM's
Head of Product Management, Adriaan
Sinke, have put together this excellent video
that takes you through all the details and
more of the 2021 (2022 for us) KTM 1290
Super Adventure S. CN
Honda Rebel 1100 Review Video
I
n case you missed our road
test on the all-new Honda
Rebel 1100, we've put together
a short test video to give you a
glimpse of what the new DCT
version is like to ride.
The Rebel 1100 sits at the top
of Honda's revamped cruiser
tree, which now stands at seven
machines strong. What's im-
portant here is Honda now has
three Rebels—the base model
300, 500 and now the 1100—
marking a proper family cruiser
tree instead of the more tradi-
tional Fury, Shadow Phantom
and Aero, and the CTX700N.
The Rebel 1100 is not so
much a cruiser for cruiser's
sake but a new take on the
segment that's dominated by
Harley-Davidson and Indian.
Honda wants riders to custom-
ize their Rebels, and the fact
it costs less than $10K makes
changing aesthetic features
not as daunting as on a $20K
Indian. CN
