The original 690 Enduro R came out for the 2008 model year, and after all these years is still unique in the dual sport class. This single-cylinder dual sport can serve many purposes from lightweight ADV to heavyweight enduro, which gives it a ton of versatility. It also has more than enough power to be a great streetbike.
Its 693cc SOHC single is shared with no less than five other models including its Supermoto sibling under the KTM banner. It is liquid-cooled, has electric starting, fuel injection, and features ride-by-wire throttle, which allows multiple ride modes. It also has lean-sensitive ABS and traction control.
A steel-trellis frame and composite subframe with integrated fuel tank anchor the chassis. Suspension consists of a WP 48mm Xplor fork with 9.8 inches of travel in the front and a linked WP shock with identical travel. Wheels measure 21 inches in front and 18 inches at the rear with 90/90-21 and 140/80-18 rubber, respectively. Brembo brakes with Bosch ABS handle braking duty.
The 2024 KTM 690 Enduro R is $12,999 in the single orange and black color.
