The 2020 KTM 790 Adventure R has 2 recalls, both affecting braking: the rear brake hose can overheat and cause the rear brake to fail entirely, raising the risk of a crash.
The front brake has a separate issue where a weak return spring in the master cylinder may not pull the brake piston fully back to its resting position, reducing front braking force and extending stopping distances.
