2027 KTM Adventure R890 Rally

Motorcycle

IGNORE THE LIMITS

Limited in numbers and built for riders who refuse to slow down, the KTM 890 ADVENTURE R RALLY is engineered for those who measure every journey by the terrain they conquer -- not the miles they cover. For 2027, it returns with rally‑bred livery that makes its intent unmistakable: this is the most off‑road‑focused Adventure machine in the KTM lineup, carrying pure READY TO RACE DNA. Purpose‑built to take on the world's roughest terrain, it packs WP XPLOR PRO suspension lifted straight from top‑level competition, heavy‑duty wheels that thrive under punishment, and a lightweight Akrapovič slip‑on that sharpens response and attitude. Every component exists for one reason -- to let you charge further, faster, and deeper into the wild than any Adventure bike before it..
Starting at $22,649 MSRP

WP PRO COMPONENTS
Developed together with WP Factory Racing, the WP XPLOR PRO suspension delivers race‑level control in the toughest terrain. The Cone Valve fork punches out 270 mm of travel, offering razor‑sharp sensitivity with serious resistance to bottoming when you're hitting obstacles at pace. At the rear, the XPLOR PRO PDS shock uses low‑friction internals for precise damping, stronger traction, and reduced rider fatigue over long, punishing stages. Both ends are fully adjustable, letting you fine‑tune the bike for whatever terrain you're ready to attack.
Heavy duty wheels & footpegs
Built for full‑commitment riding, the bike rolls on high‑strength EXCEL rims -- 21" up front and 18" at the rear -- matched with tube‑type tires for maximum durability and impact resistance in brutal terrain. This rally‑focused setup stays stable at speed and shrugs off heavy hits when the trail turns violent. To stay in control on the edge, it's equipped with the FACTORY RACING FOOTPEG KIT. Wider, sharper, and built for aggressive off‑road attack, these pegs lock your boots in place and give you the leverage to drive the bike exactly where you want it.
Offroad ABS
Offroad ABS automatically activates when you select Offroad or Rally Mode. It reduces ABS intervention on the front wheel and disables it completely on the rear, letting you slide the back-end into corners with precision. In short, it delivers stronger braking and total control where it matters most in the dirt.
Tires
Running on MITAS ENDURO TRAIL tires developed in close collaboration with KTM, this setup is built for riders who push deep into demanding terrain. The rubber delivers the durability, stability, and mileage needed on the road -- but its real purpose is driving forward through loose, rocky, and technical surfaces with total confidence. Tuned for KTM and built for hard off‑road use, these tires grip where others give up.
