The 2019 KTM 790 Adventure R has 2 recalls, both involving brake failure: the rear brake hose can overheat and cause the rear brakes to stop working entirely, raising the risk of a crash.
The front brakes also have a concern: the master cylinder's piston return spring may be too weak to fully release the brake piston after each application, which reduces braking force and increases stopping distances.
