Friends have/love the 950/990 Adventure (R). Absolutely massive beasts. I'm 6ft and a bit weak. I can move the DR350 no stress, I moved the Blackbird without a hernia, but the 990? I could barely get it off the centre-stand to have a sit.
How much smaller/lighter is the 790?

About 30kg give or take.
It’s one aspect about the tiger I hate. It’s fucking porky. When it’s on the ground, cos it’s inline, it lays proper flat, which makes it hard work to pick up.
Seems like the 790 is better due to the tank.Dunno. Not a lot of mid weight bikes excite me. This does have the duty to sometimes carry my partner, and no way am I doing smaller.

Any KTM riders here? Reckon I’m done with the tiger. Nought wrong, I just want something with more character.
Tempted to get a multi 1200 again, but the 790/890 Adventure is floating my boat.
