KTM 1090 Adventure R vs Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports vs Triumph Tiger 800 XCa vs BMW F850GS go wheel-to-wheel.
With a fictitious budget of £13,000, we take the four best adventure bikes under 1000cc and head to Wales for some motorway, A-road, twisty B-road and off-road action. In a world with big 1200, 1260 and 1290 adventure and dual purpose machines, how do these sub-1000cc machines fair.

Should have thrown the Multistrada 950 spoke wheels in the mix.
the Honda will just keep going and going years after the other three have been scrapped !
From right to left, overpriced rubbish(BMW), painted ancient overpriced rubbish(Honda), overhyped and overpriced rubbish(Triumph), even more overpriced rubbish rubbish(KTM).
I just can’t tell which one is more hideous.
Where’s kawasaki versys 1000?
you tested the 4 worst adv bikes!!!-go figure
That was a great test by guys that really know what they are talking about. I like them all!!
Maybe a 5th rider would have picked a Suzuki V Strom (1037 cc) to ride and then, you would have had your best all-rounder. Without the Suze, you don’t have a full cross section of all the under 1100cc “adventure-ish” bikes.
What! No Vstrom 650????
The 1100cc limit seems a bit arbitrary. Clearly the KTM and Africa Twin are closer to other manufacturers 1200’s in size and weight.
all the bikes have one bench mark i.e bmw !!! admit it
Great review pals
Not sure if you bloaks decided, or picked a winner….yea, nea. change rear sprocket on the Tiger, and wa la pure champion of these four.! How about plastic panel rattle, any ?
Where is Multistrada 950
Right team to review these bikes. All guys are very charismatic.
i like @ 10:41 haha
Gavin Oates
What Revit jacket is that????
Rather have a scrambler than these ugly bikes with 1 million electric controls and configuration. The point of riding off road is to use your skills not let the bike do everything for you. Go ride a car if you car about comfort that much
Really great video guys, and great roads. Where exactly have you been? Would you share the route you’ve done.?
i cant understand a word the africa twin guy says….
You forgot to mention the NC750X from Honda ….
I’m happy with my Husqvarna FE-501
Have you guys ever taken a bike off road before? Comparing bikes, with different tires, and then trying to tell us they handle bad off road with street oriented tires… What a joke…
Great photography! Would have been much better if the riders swapped bikes.
Why bring in an auto bike on a review. Not a quality review.
