Adventure Rider Magazine - April - May 2019

In this issue

Issue #34 of Adventure Rider Magazine has raged through a mountain of cutting-edge material in its latest issue.
BMW’s incredible 1250 GS, Triumph’s Scrambler 1200 and KTM’s 790 Adventure are giving thorough reviews, and some industry experts explain how to go about choosing a good adventure boot.
The stories are the backbone of the issue, as always, with tales from Morocco, South America, and North America, as well as all over Australia itself.
The jewel in the crown is a long chat with Dakar winner, and Australia’s newest world champion, Toby Price.
It’s an issue as big as the adventure-riding world itself.

Adventure R - KTM 790

Adventure Rider Magazine travelled to Morocco to ride KTM’s newest adventure bikes. It was worth every minute and every kilometre. Both 790s are awesome. The Adventure R was the one which got us really excited, though. It was totally at home in the fesh-fesh, rock and sandstorms of the Sahara, and seems to be an ideal fit for Australia’s toughest riding.

Triumph Scrambler 1200XE

Triumph calls it a ‘modern classic’, and there’s no doubt the styling of the new Scrambler 1200 is pretty damn sexy. We thought it was an inner-city image bike, but Triumph encouraged us to ride and rate the bike as adventure mount. Hmm.
