Riders all over the world are getting into adventure riding for the first time. A midweight adventure bike comparison of the Royal Enfield Himalayan, KLR650, CB500X, Tenere 700, Versys 650, V-strom 650, KTM 890, Triumph 900 and BMW F850GS. We define this as 175 to 220kg when the bike has a full tank of fuel. We are only looking at brand new bikes that are widely available in most countries. Our adventure bike reviews are more critical than most reviews, so we are interested in the known issues and common complaints. Use this mid sized adventure bikes video as a rough guide, then do your own research. Lets start with the cheapest midweight adventure bikes. Okay! The best Midweight adventure bikes. The Royal Enfield Himalayan. There are plenty of happy mid sized adventure bike owners. Only 24 horsepower but lots of torque. It's a good all rounder on or off road with reasonable brakes and suspension. The KLR650, one of the best best midweight adventure bikes? The 2022 model had a pile of updates which unfortunately made it heavier and pushed it into our mid sized category. Recent KLR models have very few problems, the only important one is the 'doohickey' mod. How to pick the best midweight adventure bikes like the Tenere 700, KTM 890, Triumph 900, KLR650 and Himilayan! See our KLR650 review. Next in our adventure bike comparison... Honda's CB500X. See our review video. Next in our midweight adventure bike comparison? The Kawasaki Versys 650. A very cheap adventure tourer. And by adventure tourer, we mean essentially a road bike with just enough adventure trimmings to be okay on easy dirt roads. Next is a very similar bike, Suzuki's V-strom 650. This old workhorse is still made in Japan and is only slightly more expensive than the Kawasaki, and definitely more adventure oriented with its 19 inch front wheel. It's been around since 2004 and the majority of known issues were fixed years ago. The main things to note are the exposed engine oil filter if you are into the rough stuff. And niggling little things like complicated access to the air filter. It's quite heavy at 213kg, but it is great for carrying a passenger. It's definitely a bike for just roads and easy dirt roads. The seat is quite low, but it's a heavy mother so just make sure you can pick this up if it falls over. See our review vid. The Yamaha Tenere 700. Very cheap in the USA, less so in other countries but still way cheaper than the KTM, Triumph and BMW competitors. This is the our first twin cylinder bike with serious off road ability due to a 21 inch front wheel, relatively light weight, and long travel suspension. Yamaha has kept the electronics to a minimum with just basic ABS. Next is the KTM 890 and we are getting seriously expensive now. Press releases indicated the 790 and probably the 890 would be made in China from mid 2020. If you are planning on serious offroad work, the KTM has the suspension to suit, and it's also the most powerful midweight adventure bike. KTM often has teething problems with new models. 790 owners report electrical issues, rear shock failure, ABS problems, failing digital screens, coolant leaks, leaking exhausts, rear brake issues, oil leaks, clutch failures, and cracked engine cases. Not all owners have problems of course. There were separate recalls from KTM for the front brakes and rear brakes. Hopefully many of these issues will be resolved in the 890. The Triumph Tiger 900 available with a 19 inch or 21 inch front wheel. It's the latest update to the trusty 800 model that began in 2010. Finally, the BMW F850GS. Bloody expensive! But money means quality, right? The engine is made in China, and like KTM it appears the cost savings have not been passed to the owners. A huge range here, you can buy three Royal Enfields for the price of the BMW. That's our Royal Enfield Himalayan, KLR650, CB500X, Tenere 700, Versys 650, V-strom 650, KTM 890, Triumph 900 and BMW F850GS comparison!
