01. Engine & Exhaust

Engine

The engine combines powerful acceleration from the very lowest revs with an outstanding free-revving nature and refined engine running. Another big plus: It's extremely economical with fuel.

Cylinder Head

A lightweight, compact cylinder head contains four valves and a single camshaft placed over the intake valves, with a secondary balancer shaft driven by the timing chain. The intake valves are actuated by finger followers and the exhaust val ...

Resonator Chamber

A resonator chamber balances out pulses in the intake tract and makes the throttle response smoother with reduced vibrations.

Balancer shaft

Twin balancer shafts, one in front of the crankshaft and the other in the cylinder head, reduce vibration for a smoother ride.

Piston

The lightweight and durable forged piston is designed to reduce reciprocating mass which improves engine response.

Conrods

Plain bearings are used in the conrod to ensure a reduced reciprocating mass, which helps the engine run smoother and therefore enhances its lively character.

PASC Clutch

The PASC (Power Assist Clutch) ensures the rider needs minimal input to operate it, due to reduced engine torque transferring to the clutch plates. The slipper clutch prevents rear wheel lock-up under aggressive downshifting, which reduces d ...

Gearbox

The smooth 6-speed gearbox with Quickshifter+ allows quicker clutchless up and downshifts when you're in the thick of the action. This not only enables the rider to be in more control of the motorcycle by keeping a full grip of the handlebar ...

Ride-by-wire

The KTM 690 ENDURO R is equipped with ride-by-wire system, which processes throttle twist grip movements with the help of electronic sensors and activates the throttle valves to control throttle action. This significantly improves the respon ...

Injection / Engine Management

Electronic fuel injection and engine management allow performance perfectly suited to the riding conditions. The result: even more and even better controlled power, lower fuel consumption, and less emissions, plus the benefit of features lik ...

Long service intervals

Besides its fuel efficiency the KTM 690 ENDURO R saves its owner even more money, thanks to long service intervals of 10,000 km.

Slipper clutch

Annoying rear wheel chatter? This is prevented by the slipper clutch that's fitted as standard.

Exhaust

The KTM 690 ENDURO R features a specifically developed exhaust system made from the highest-quality stainless steel, which is not only compact and optimized for offroad use, it is EURO 5 compliant too. However, should you want a little more ...

Airbox

Accessing the airfilter during a ride is easy thanks to the airbox being located under the seat. This makes servicing the bike simple, and stress free, when you're off the beaten track.

MASTER THE RIDE
MASTER THE RIDE

Frame

The trellis frame is manufactured from lightweight sections of top-quality chrome-molybdenum steel tubing of varying thicknesses. This type of balanced frame design provides high torsional rigidity for best handling and rideability, while a ...
MASTER THE RIDE

Subframe

The innovative use of the rear fuel tank as the main structural element of the subframe, keeps weight low and eliminates design complexity.

Swingarm

The swingarm design allows for an optimal mounting position of the rear shock ensuring a high progression rate. The single-component casting process eliminates any inconsistencies and weak points that would be inherent in a welded swingarm.

Frame and swingarm

Despite its thoroughbred offroad chassis, the KTM 690 ENDURO R also numbers among the curve-bandits on the road. Two major contributors to its excellent tracking stability are the lightweight tubular trellis frame made from chrome-molybdenum ...
PRECISE HANDLING
PRECISE HANDLING

Triple clamp

Highly rigid forged triple clamps with an offset of 24 mm (adjustable to 22 mm), provide a solid grip on the forks for precise handling. They allow forwards and backwards adjustment of the handlebars in four different positions for optimum r ...
PRECISE HANDLING

Front Fork

Riding over rough terrain is made easier with the WP XPLOR 48 upside-down fork. The KTM 690 ENDURO R's split fork design was originally developed by WP and KTM for the EXC models. It is fitted with springs on both sides with separate damping ...

Rear Shock

The WP XPLOR shock absorber is connected to the swingarm by a linkage. This ensures a progressive suspension character and a high resistance to bottoming out. Fully adjustable, including high and low-speed compression, you can set up the sho ...

Wheels & tyres

The KTM wheels use lightweight, CNC-machined hubs and high-end 21" and 18" rims to combine maximum strength with minimum weight. The rims are wrapped with MITAS E07 tires - offering excellent grip and great lifespan.

Brakes

Sublime class-leading BREMBO brakes combined with lightweight wave discs - 300 mm diameter front and 240 mm on the rear wheel - to provide a crucial combination of stopping power and a consistent brake feel.

Fuel tank

The large fuel tank has a capacity of 13.5 liters. It is also a load bearing part of the chassis, making it stiffer for optimal feeling and control.

Suspension components

By professionals for everyone: The KTM 690 ENDURO R's WP upside-down fork, with a whole 250 mm of suspension travel and 48 mm outer tubes, is adjustable in many ways and masters the balancing act between every day, road and offroad use with ...

03. Ergonomics & Comfort

Handlebar

The lightweight tapered 808 mm wide handlebars are rubber mounted to reduce vibrations. Their width and shape are aimed at providing maximum control in all situations.

Footpegs

Sophisticated "No Dirt" foot pegs prevent jamming up of the pegs, even when digging your way through deep ruts or navigating wet terrain. Rubber inserts can be mounted for street use to help reduce any vibration that might be felt through th ...

Seats

The KTM 690 ENDURO R seat does three things. Firstly, it allows fluid rider motion when shredding offroad, thanks to its ergonomic shape and 910 mm seat height. Secondly, it provides good comfort when you need to cover the ground between tra ...

04. Software & Electronics

Dashboard

Keeping true to its enduro roots, the KTM 690 ENDURO R sports a simple, but effective dashboard. Providing riders with information like speed, RPM, and an array of essential warning lights, the dashboard's slimline design keeps the view forw ...

Rider aids

Electronic fuel injection, ride-by-wire and the engine management system (EMS) make it possible to offer innovative yet easy-to-use electronic rider aids. These features can be selected, deselected and utilized to put the potent new-generati ...

Ride Modes

Two ride modes (1) Street mode (2) Offroad mode: "Street mode" for sporty throttle response where wheel slip and wheelies are kept to a minimum for optimal street performance. Two channel ABS functionality with ABS activated on the front and ...

Lean Angle Sensor

A lean-angle sensor keeps track of the angle of the bike and send information to the ECU and relevant control units, which use this data to adjust traction control and ABS actuation.

MTC (Motorcycle Traction Control)

The MTC (Motorcycle Traction Control) lean-angle sensitive traction control system reacts immediately the instant the rear wheel rotation speed becomes disproportionate to the riding situation. In mere milliseconds MTC reduces engine output ...

Quickshifter+

Quickshifter+ uses two sensors, where one sensor on the shift arm detects the movement on the shift lever rod when the rider upshifts and the system cuts the injection instantaneously. As soon as the second sensor detects the gear engagement ...

Cornering ABS

Keeping you cranked over in full confidence, Cornering ABS allows riders to use full braking power in all conditions, even at big lean angles. This is particularly useful when you have twisty tarmac between you and your offroad destination o ...

Offroad ABS

Offroad ABS quite literally pulls out all the stops when riding in the dirt. When activated, ABS is reduced on the front wheel effective deceleration on loose surfaces, but completely disabled on the rear. This allows you to lock up the rear ...
