The KTM 890 Adventure R features a Chromium-Molybdenum-Steel frame and subframe with the former using the engine as a stressed element. It sports a WP Xplor USD front fork and a WP Xplor PDS monoshock at the rear to take care of the rough stuff.

The KTM 890 Adventure R ADV rides on a 21-inch front wheel and an 18-inch rear wheel. These spoked aluminium wheels come shod with Pirelli's Scorpion STR dual-purpose tyres.
