Best for
Built primarily as a big-bore enduro weapon for serious off-road riding, trail exploration, and technical terrain, with light road use as a secondary role.
Built for
A raw, torquey big single with a lightweight chassis rewards decisive, engaged riding and punishes hesitation, giving it a focused, no-nonsense personality.
Not ideal for
Not a good fit for riders wanting plush comfort, pillion-friendly touring, or a low-effort commuter experience.

Safety Recalls

⚠ 1 recall may apply
SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:PEDALS AND LINKAGESJun 2014 · 14V305000

KTM North America, Inc. (KTM) is recalling certain model year 2014 690 Enduro R motorcycles manufactured October 2013 to April 2014. In the affected motorcycles, the rear brake pedal mounting bolt may loosen, allowing the rear brake pedal to detach from the motorcycle.

Risk: If the rear brake pedal detaches, the rider would only have the front brake to slow or stop the motorcycle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: KTM will notify owners, and dealers will install and properly torque, a washer and new rear brake pedal mounting bolt with threadlocker, free of charge. The recall began in July 2014. Owners may contact KTM customer service at 1-888-985-6090.

These recalls cover some 2014 bikes of this model. Whether one applies to a specific bike, and whether the repair has already been done, depends on its VIN — check your VIN with NHTSA or ask a dealer.
