The KTM 1390 Super Adventure S EVO is equipped with WP’s latest generation semi-active technology (SAT). This system constantly adapts to changing road conditions by automatically adjusting the damping. New pulse width modulation (PWM) sensors improve suspension precision, while the through-stem fork construction – borrowed from Open Cartridge and Closed Cartridge designs – delivers improved performance over rough terrain. This means smoother handling over bumps, rocks and uneven surfaces.

At the heart of the bike is the new 1,350cc engine, an upgrade from the previous 1,300cc unit. This engine produces 17 hp at 9,500 rpm and 145 Nm of torque at 8,000 rpm.

Additionally, KTM’s new ‘CAMSHIFT’ technology aims to improve the ADV’s performance by allowing it to have two different engine behaviors. At lower rpm, the cams reduce lift and valve timing, providing better drivability and fuel efficiency. But when the engine accelerates further, the system shifts the intake cams to open the valves wider and longer, allowing more fuel and air into the cylinders for maximum power. KTM also gave the 2025 KTM 1390 Super Adventure S EVO several riding modes.
