In reply to Charles Puett.

KLR is an entry level pig for newbs. As a newb that didn’t know better, I put $9000 in my KLR suspension and mods and eventually just learned to hate it. You cannot mod them to any level of greatness. I’ve since ridden 990 and 890 ADV R, and am interested in the Toureg. There’s no comparison. Get over your cognitive dissonance and go ride them, you’ll learn to hate the KLR too…

In reply to Taildown. It is called KTM 690 Enduro or Husqvarna 701 Enduro (now GasGas ES 700 as well)

Still over 100 pounds heavier that the now ancient BMW G650-X models. Yes, more HP and probably a bit better suspension, but why won’t any of the manufacturers produce a 650 class bike light enough to be a true adventure bike?

This Motorcycle will be awesome ! it will ride same or better than Yamaha T7. With tubeless tires, cruise control and the awesome display! it’s gonna be the bike of the year for 2022 !!
I just sold my KTM 790R And I’m looking forward for something different… I think this will fit the bill perfectly!!
Can’t wait for them to arrive in USA …should be first week of March

Not sure how heads and pistons from the WSBK race bike “assuage concerns about reliability” though as with most modern bikes it should be fine minus the usual minor things that show up over time typical of new designs.
Aprilia nailed it though and to me it is a better option than the T7 and even a better deal value wise considering the features.
I already have a KTM Adventure R and a DR650 but still, this Tuareg is calling my name.
