KTM 690 Enduro R 2021

The KTM 690 Enduro R is the perfect bike for riders who find a touring enduro too heavy, but a hard enduro too uncomfortable and maintenance-intensive. The new electronic features make the bike very accessible even to inexperienced riders. The smooth-running, cultivated engine, together with the perfectly tuned gearbox and overall gratifyingly low vibration level, also makes long tours possible without any problems.
