KTM's middleweight adventure model, the 790 Adventure, is expected to receive a major overhaul for the 2027 model year.

Hearing that they're ditching that distinctive low-position tank honestly has me fidgeting. It had the benefit of lowering the center of gravity, but it was also a divisive element. What layout are they switching to for the new model, and how will they reconcile it with the Dakar-style look - I can't wait to check the spec sheet against the actual package. A deep redesign like this is one I want to follow closely.

The low-slung tank actually helped keep things stable on rough terrain, kind of a shame to lose it.

The 790 class is a fierce battleground for mid-size adventure bikes, so a refresh here is probably a given.

Oh the 790 Adventure is a mid-class bike, I only ever pictured KTM as making big bikes.

This is still sketch and prototype stage, I'll take it with a grain of salt until the official announcement.

Dakar-style looks get me excited, feels like KTM's rally DNA is about to go full throttle.

Honestly I liked the low-slung tank, it had its own distinct feel to the ride.

But the styling really did get mixed reactions, so given sales a refresh seems like a reasonable call.
