Whilst I'm very happy with the 390, there is a limit to how much money I will throw at it as I think I'll be getting one of these to complement it :love:

I'm sure it'd be nice...120hp (didn't the outgoing 990 from c 2012 have 115?) and a decent usable weight...but ultimately, they'll have it on the market for c £14k...until September when they'll fire them out for £11k, annoying the bods who paid approaching £14k and immediately devaluing their 6 mth old bikes by 40-50%...they have much from for this (Not an issue if it doesn't have chocolate cams and you keep it for years...)

It's a fair point, history does tend to repeat itself but I'm hoping that the Bajaj management will actually manage the inventory rather than just overproduce and then have a fire sales. Time will tell I guess. I could argue that things have not started well with them just reducing the 2025 390 Adventure R price by £500, but that does look like a strategic price alignment rather than a fire sale and at least they provided the same value vouchers to people that had already purchased the bike.

I may look at the 1390, but not sure I'd want to take one of those beasts off road, as fun as it would be.
 
now that's a great looking bike hope the paintwork will do it justice. there's no mistaking that's a 990 adv
Why’s that then ?

The last 990 Adv looked like this

The new one looks more of a gentle transition from the 790/890 Adventure.
 
why's wot then ? why does it look like a 990 ? because It has very similar silhouette

and you think it looks like this ???? are you being being serious or just arsey today ?:confused:

No need to get nasty yet again .
Point taken . It’s quite different to the 890 but to say it’s unmistakably a 990 is a bit strong . Looks more like a Himalayan 750
