FUEL TANK

This groundbreaking fuel tank concept is central to the 890 ADVENTURE R’s design innovation. With the main tank volume placed as low as possible and slung down the sides of the chassis, it provides many benefits. Whether seated or standing, the tank between your legs feels considerably narrower and more compact than one would expect from the generous 20 liter volume. The low-slung fuel volume results in effortless handling with the bulk of the weight set low and forward, eliminating the fuel swaying and offsetting the balance as is typical of traditionally-positioned tanks. This results in a low center of gravity which enhances agility and allows for more playful handling and instant change of direction. The freed-up traditional tank area allows a straighter and lower seat, giving the rider more freedom to move with improved freedom. The tank is also made of highly durable materials and is highly crash-resistant, as proven by the similar tank concept successfully used in the extreme race conditions of the Dakar Rally by the KTM Factory Racing team. The ultimate result is a best of both worlds: a slim feel of a smaller offroad bike with the exceptional fuel range of over 400 km on the open road.
