It's spring festival soon! "Mo Masterpiece" first here to give you a little friend to say goodbye to the early years, I wish you can have your own small motorcycle after the spring!
The protagonist of this episode is not very ordinary, the identity of the big trade, a body of electronic control, 5 seconds more than a hundred, and as long as more than 50,000 yuan.
This is today's protagonist, the KTM 390 ADVENTURE Standard Edition. In fact, KTM has always been a brand that does not lack popularity, from the Dakar champion to the MotoGP station podium, from the mud guy to the "novice de-prostrusion"...
Don't ask, ask is "KTM world first"!
390 ADV Low-Seat Version Front Shock Absorber Stroke Demonstration
However, as KTM's entry-level ADV model, the 390 ADVENTURE is not very popular. For this reason, the low-seat version introduced in the early days only had a front 143mm/rear 151mm shock absorber stroke (the preload is not adjustable), which is almost the same as the 390 Duke that positions street cars, and does not have the appearance of the ADV.
390 ADV Standard Edition front shock absorber stroke demonstration
Therefore, KTM introduced the latest 390 ADVENTURE, offering a low-seat version and a standard version, with an official guidance price of 53,800-5.68 million yuan. The high-seat version of the test drive is equipped with a WP APEX shock absorber of front 170mm/ rear 177mm, and supports adjustable front and rear preload.
However, the price is this seat is high... Directly soared to 855mm. Even if you are 185cm tall, it is difficult to fully land on both feet without a pair of large long legs, but fortunately, the 172kg of the curb weight reduces a lot of pressure, and it is relatively easy to stop and land on one foot.
Keyly, the new 390 ADVENTURE offers an electronic control system: a two-way quick shift Quickshifter+, an MTC inclination-sensing electronic traction control system, an off-road ABS (which can hold the rear wheels) and a cornering ABS, which is really rare for a small and medium-displacement model.
Coupled with the actual displacement of this 373.2cc water-cooled single-cylinder four-stroke engine with a maximum power of 43Ps and a maximum torque of 37N·m, it can achieve a thrust-to-weight ratio of 3.9 kg/Ps, and the acceleration of 100 kilometers takes only 5 seconds. Such a power level can be coped with whether it is daily driving, running mountains or off-road.
From the riding performance, the 390 ADV and 390 Duke are basically the same, and the power parameters and transmission gear ratio have not changed significantly. The performance in the corners is not so thief, the tire has lower limits, but the overall stability is better, and these characteristics are also in line with its positioning.
For everyday driving, stronger off-road capabilities and higher playability make the 390 ADV ideal as a spice for boring life. Even for riders with extensive off-road experience, the Standard Edition can be a fun, flexible and ADV model.
You may ask, the price of 56,800 yuan for the 390 ADVENTURE high-seat version is not low, and you can choose a Chinese brand 800cc class model at the same price.
However, this may not be a difficult choice. More reasonable weight, more moderate displacement, safer electronic control, as well as the advantages of large trade identity, high retention rate, etc., make this car look very special in the same level, with the least cost can experience the joy of being a mud guy.
So, do you like this 390 ADVENTURE High Seat Edition in front of the screen? Or do you prefer the 830mm low-seat version, which is also equipped with an electronic control system but has a friendlier seat height? Let's talk about it in the comments section
