IMO as I said before it could be the bike to have.
400km range just over 200 kg WET.
105 HP or maybe a bit more?
Ticks many boxes IMO.
Depending on the landed Thai price and KTM sorting out a good dealer network here in Thailand.
Intresting to here about the location of the fuel tank.
The new factory being consucted now by KTM-CFmoto in China will be producing the new 790 ADV bike.

First professional rider reviews of the 790R., overall i think they like it.

 

[prince666]

I said along time back
IMO the KTM 790 ADV BIKE will be a very good bike to consider.
It ticks a lot of box's

 

[bsacbob]

I think the key thing is going to be availability and dealer after service Steve, as we know KTM in Thailand is not renowned for it customer care.

 

[prince666]

Yes Bob you are correct
But that said when CFmoto get here in Thailand, then I see it will be a CFmoto /'KTM dealer set up.
And CFmoto has the money and the insight to have a dealer in EVERY MAIN TOWN in Thailand.
Only time will tell.

Did anyone on here buy one? I am in Chiang Rai and thinking of getting one top replace my Duke 390. The suspension is its main selling point for Thai roads. Plus its economy.
