Light, simple, effective. *shrug* IMHO the sheer mass of the 790 goes along way to absorbing hits before it makes it's way to the handlebars and I don't find the bike vibey at the handlebars so the isolation is just more than I need.

May 24, 2010. Oddometer: 55. Location: Lake Isabella, CA. My 2020 790 adventure with 22,000 miles recently would not start. The starter relay would click but not turn over. I could start the bike by shorting from battery positive to starter relay output. It started that way quickly.

Hey Robert, I am responding to your submission regarding your new 2022 KTM 890 Adventure R. KTM is aware of your concern and is actively investigating cold start claims on KTM 890 Adventures. However, KTM has seen improvements of this concern by using a lower grade fuel in your motorcycle (ie. 87 or 89 Octane).
