KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S

The ‘S’ has always denoted a street orientation on KTM’s ADVENTURE range. For 2025, this is no different, with the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S providing Adventure motorcyclists with a flurry of all-new technological and mechanical advancements.

Compared to the range-topping KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO, the S proudly boasts a traditional clutch and manual gearbox aimed at riders looking for a more “hands-on” approach, with the 5th-generation Front Radar available as an optional extra.

For 2025, styling and ergonomics are updated with all-new bodywork design, all-new LED headlight, windshield, and more storage compartment. The 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S frame sees an increase in stiffness, improving handling and track stability, with 8 mm lower and 10 mm wider footpeg positioning which improves rider comfort.

Like the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO, the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S is fitted with WP’s latest Semi-Active Technology. Tuned to be more precise with consistent damping behavior at higher frequencies, the SAT uses new PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) sensors and a new through-rod fork construction to achieve refined handling dynamics.

Engine displacement is increased from 1,300 to 1,350 cc, producing 173 PS @ 9,500 rpm and 145 Nm @ 8,000 rpm, with reworked engine components, and all-new CAMSHIFT technology providing improved rideability in low rpm range, higher peak performance, low emissions, and fuel consumption.

The innovative CAMSHIFT technology provides variable-valve timing with two individual cam profiles. At higher revs, the inlet cams shift sideways, opening the valves longer and higher for more gas flow into the cylinder for higher performance, while in the lower rev range, the inlet cams have a reduced valve timing and lift. This results in a noticeable increase in rideability in both normal road conditions around town and high-performance use on fast roads.

The KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S also receives KTM’s new premium electronics package, with an all-new V80 portrait-mount touchscreen, TFT dashboard leading the way. The V80 Touchscreen features inductive technology, allowing easy operation even when wearing thick winter gloves, while an innovative Anti-reflex, anti-fingerprint and anti-glare coating improves overall readability.

Here, riders have access to all new RIDE MODES, Connectivity features, and KTM’s optional Adaptive Cruise Control upgrade, which adds Brake Assistance, Collision Warning, and Distance Warning to its arsenal.

The 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S is engineered for the street, with exceptional offroad capability should the road end, providing riders with all the technology, power, and handling dynamics for any cross-border Adventure.
