KTM 1290 Super Adventure has been a popular model in the ADV market since its facelift in 2021, and recently, some foreign media captured spy photos suspected of being the new 1390 Super Adventure, as can be seen from the photos, the new model is on par with the 1390 Super Duke that has appeared on the scene in terms of appearance and power, and the appearance is also similar to the previously exposed 1390 SMT.
On the outside, the most noticeable change in the new 1390 Super Adventure is the design of the headlight clusters. The current model uses the Splitface's split left and right headlight clusters, while the new model's headlight housing continues the shape of the 1390 Super Duke, with a double LED fisheye arranged up and down in the center, paired with LED daytime running lights, for a more concise and modern overall look.

Currently, the 1290 Super Adventure is powered by a 1,301cc LC8 V-twin engine that makes 160 hp and 138 Nm of torque. Elsewhere, the frame, suspension and braking systems of the new model appear to be similar to those of the current model.
