The junior member of the KTM Adventure line doesn’t stand still. The 2022 KTM 390 Adventure receives a number of functions that improve its off-road knowledge. Let’s go over what’s new in KTM’s single cylinder ADV motorcycle.<\/p>\n
- \n
- The traction control now has two settings.<\/strong> Instead of a one-size-fits-all, the 2022 KTM 390 Adventure offers the driver the choice between street and off-road traction control. The new traction control functions complement the existing off-road ABS setting, which switches off the rear wheel ABS and reduces the intervention for the front wheel.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n- \n
- Speaking of wheels, the 390 is getting new wheels this year. <\/strong>Although the sizes are unchanged – 19\/17 inch pairing – KTM tells us that the new bikes are “stronger and more robust”. The wheels still have Continental<\/a> TKC 70 tires are mounted on them. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
- \n
- The WP Apex suspension is making a return, as are the Bybre brakes. <\/strong>The fork remains non-adjustable, while the damper still has adjustment options for rebound damping and spring preload. A 320 mm disc at the front and a 230 mm disc at the rear are used for braking.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

- The short stroke engine is back unchanged. <\/strong>The DOHC engine with 373 cc fuel injection is ride-by-wire, has a counterbalance, a three-way catalytic converter and a wet multi-plate clutch with support and slip functions. A quickshifter for the six-speed gearbox is optional. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

- KTM has not published a price or an arrival date for the 2022 KTM 390 Adventure. <\/strong>However, we can take a look at the new colors and graphics. Rest assured that as soon as we get our hands on that fun and capable little ADV motorcycle, we will test it. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
