Ktm Adventure 990
The Ktm Adventure 990 has a top speed of 210 km/h, produces 114 hp and weighs 229 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.2/10.
Модель KTM 990 Adventure была представлена в 2006 году как эволюция модели 950 Adventure, оснащенная более мощным V-образным двигателем LC8 объемом 999 куб. см и улучшенной динамикой ходовой части. Он стал эталоном в сегменте приключенческого туризма, получив высокую оценку за внедорожные характеристики в сочетании с дальними путешествиями, и стал прямым конкурентом BMW серии GS. Производство продолжалось до 2013 года, когда на смену модели пришла модель 1190 Adventure, оставившая после себя прочное наследие одного из самых знаменитых автомобилей KTM, выпускающих двойные спортивные туры.

Что следует знать покупателям
Watch the Cam Chain
The 990 Adventure is known for cam chain tensioner wear, especially on higher-mileage bikes. Always check service history and listen for rattling on cold starts before buying.
Strong Resale Value
The 990 holds its value exceptionally well due to its cult following and discontinued status. A well-maintained example often sells for close to its original purchase price even years later.
True Dual-Purpose DNA
Unlike many 'adventure' bikes, the 990 was genuinely capable off-road thanks to its lightweight LC8 V-twin engine and WP suspension, making it a rare bike that excels both on dirt and long-distance touring.
Поколения и характеристики по годам
Первый выпуск с V-образным двигателем LC8 объемом 999 куб. см, трубчатой стальной рамой, опциональной системой ABS, приключенческим путешествием по бездорожью.
"Насыщенная, блестящая, утомительная — приключенческая езда, воплощенная в жизнь."
LC8 бьет по почкам каждый раз, когда вы разгоняете дроссельную заслонку со скоростью свыше 6000 об/мин, и в качестве комплимента: 100 Нм от толкающего V-образного двойника, который звучит как разозленный маслкар, превращают любую грунтовую дорогу в атмосферу победы на сцене. Бездорожье подвеска с длинным ходом и узкая талия действительно смущали моих товарищей по GS Adventures по скалистым марокканским трассам, хотя при весе 229 кг на мокрой дороге каждый килограмм ощущается, если вы сбросите его на крутой склон. С эргономикой всё в порядке: высота сиденья 860 мм не подлежит сомнению, защита от ветра минимальна, а скорость выше 160 км/ч в течение нескольких часов будет утомительной. Моим главным страхом была надежность — первые двигатели LC8 имели смазочные гремлины, а дроссельные заслонки нуждались в периодической синхронизации. Но если вы будете соблюдать интервалы технического обслуживания, то сможете пересечь все континенты.

Отзыв покупателя б/у
"A flawed masterpiece that absolutely rewards diligent pre-purchase inspection."
$5,500-$9,500 usedThe 990 Adventure is one of those bikes that rewards experienced riders while genuinely punishing the unprepared. That LC8 V-twin is an absolute gem — torquey, characterful, and sounds properly angry when you crack the throttle. It'll pull hard from tickover and keep pulling until you're doing speeds you probably shouldn't mention. Pre-2013 models especially carry that raw, unfiltered KTM DNA that newer bikes have largely sanitized away. Here's the honest bit though — these things demand maintenance respect. The valve clearances need checking religiously, the throttle bodies require balancing, and neglected examples will drain your wallet fast. Always ask for service history. No records means walk away, simple as that. Check the subframe for cracks around the rear luggage mounts, inspect the WP suspension for leaks, and wiggle the steering head bearing. Previous owner abuse shows up quickly on these. Get a good one with solid history and you've arguably bought the last truly analog adventure bike worth owning. They're genuinely brilliant when properly sorted.
