Special Edition KTM 1090 Adventure R to be given away to raise funds for the non-profit Backcountry Discovery Routes

Seattle, WA(September 12th, 2018) – KTM North America and US-based non-profit, Backcountry Discovery Routes, are giving away a ‘special edition’ KTM 1090 Adventure R during an online fundraiser. Individuals can enter for a chance to win by donating as little as $25 to Backcountry Discovery Routes. Drawing ticket packages are available at www.WinKTM1090.com.

The KTM 1090 Adventure R is an exciting machine to ride with its liquid-cooled v-twin power plant generating 125 horsepower. It also features incredible WP suspension including a PDS rear-shock, confidence inspiring traction control modes and best-in-class ABS that perform well both on and off-road.

The team at RideBDR have taken this great ADV machine and made it even better with some nice additions.

This bike features custom ‘BDR Special Edition’ graphics and has been outfitted for adventure with many upgrades from Touratech and Trailmaster ADV Gear. The accessory list includes: windscreen, hand guards, luggage system, skid plate, crash bars, tank bag, crash bar bags, pannier rack bag, and dry bag. The prize package also includes Butler Motorcycle Maps for all 9 Backcountry Discovery Routes.

“On our recent project filming the California BDR South, I rode a KTM 1090 Adventure R set up just like this one. I feel it’s a fantastic motorcycle for off-road adventures like a BDR. I had so much fun on my KTM 1090… whoever wins this one is going to have a blast.”

– Paul Guillien, President & Co-Founder, Backcountry Discovery Routes

The motorcycle, accessories, and maps in this prize package were donated by the supporting companies so all money raised in this online drawing will directly benefit the Backcountry Discovery Routes. The non-profit will use the funds to continue to develop new routes, provide planning resources and GPS tracks for the community and work to preserve riding access to public lands and to promote safety for adventure motorcycling.

“At KTM we are all about riding our motorcycles and supporting BDR for all they do to keep trails and remote roads open for motorcycling. We are thrilled to assist them where we can and encourage riders to get out and experience motorcycling in the backcountry. This KTM 1090 ADV R fundraiser will generate funds allowing the organization to create new routes and provide GPS tracks and trip planning resources that we can all use.”

Tom Moen, Marketing Manager, KTM North America
