KTM 950 Adventure review
At this time
KTM machines have two alternatives in the
KTM 950 Adventure models, standard orange model and the silver S model. Ground clearance is a generous 281mm for the standard model, or a full 316mm on the taller S version. But lowseat is something of a misnomer in this case as it is actually a quite high 880mm, on the tall version it is a quite extreme 915mm.
The suspension then stiffens nicely as more travel is used, while still maintaining very good damping control. Specially developed Pirelli tyres suit the machine well and can handle some reasonable hard charging on the road, while also providing reasonable grip on gravel surfaces.
Report Test KTM dirtbike originals the skinny flanks, narrow seat and low rise Magura fatbar handlebars are there because the
Adventure 950 S is a bike with therefore genuine off-road potential and genuine offroad roots. More
specs and
