KTM Adventure 250 Detailed Review

The design language is in line with its new-gen bigger sibling. 8

• The new 250 Adventure looks nearly identical to the road-biased 390 Adventure X, featuring similar body panels, along with a smaller 19-inch front and a 17-inch rear wheel setup with alloy rims.
• Unlike its bigger sibling, the 250 Adventure is not going to receive a different version more suited to off-roading, and it will remain a road-biased motorcycle.

Seat Height	855 mm
Weight	177 kg
Wheel Size	19 inches inch & 17 inches inch

1/1

• In terms of braking, the 250 Adventure deploys a 320mm disc with radially-mounted callipers at the front, along with a 240mm disc with a floating calliper at the rear.

A features list that is impressive for its segment. 9

Dimensions 8

The KTM Adventure 250 is a big bike as per the segment standard. The overall dimensions make it appear bigger than its actual size. However, see it in the flesh and one can easily notice the nimbleness of design which when compared with its elder sibling i.e. the Adventure 390. The 2154 mm Length mark, 900 mm Width, 1263 mm Height, 1430 mm Wheelbase, and 200 mm Ground Clearance is the dimensions of the KTM Adventure 250. The motorcycle's seat is 855 mm high & hence it is not much suited for short height riders.

Summary

The motorcycle is apt for highways and off-road expeditions.
