    Cool vid! What a training exercise to ride a 690 Enduro around a moto track. Can't imagine doing a 30 minute + 2 lap moto on it!

    I love seeing y'all get out there and shred the motocross track!!! Giving me the motivation to get back out there on my stock 790 Adventure S as well, though I need to order some new Motoz knobbies for it first, LOL!

    Trop cool de voir que t'as toujours la forme Xavier. Le dakar en KTM cetet année ? Pour moi tu reste le favoris. J'attend que le vent tourne pour toi.
    Edit : Je viens de voir la vidéo. Triste que ce soit la fin de l'aventure Dakar.

    I pick up my 690 this coming wednesday, nearly everyone who is a serious dirt biker says the 690 can't go off road with any reasonable ability.......yet here we are, glad I ignored them :)

    I ride a 690 and I don’t care what suspension work is done to it, I could never ride like that! 🤣

      The suspension upgrade is necessary when you do stuff like that
      Original suspensions are way too soft for fast riding
      The upgrade is not to make you ride faster but safer

    Thank you very much for sharing your experience! I wonder if it's feasible to use the 690 as a training bike in motocross track for a "normal" guy like me! Is it a lot more tiring than a proper cross bike? I'm new in this world, I don't jump so high because for now I have just rented a cross bike a couple times, but I like a lot the "almost zero maintenance and street legal" part in the user manual of the 690 😆 I would buy just one bike for everything, it seems like a dream! So please tell me, after some more practice renting proper bikes, would it be a suicide to start practicing with a 690? Thanks in advance for your feedback 😁 you are amazing!

      He probably added the rade garage tank. What do you mean with the original solution making you visit the hospital?

      @@kuziemskifoto3155 Rally bikes have back tanks too tho, even bigger than this one. Also, I'm pretty sure the tank sits more low than back, and it gives a lower center of gravity than a front tank for sure. Anyway, as I said, I never heard about this type of complain, so I asked the guy in the video, maybe he'll shine a light on the issue. Beside that, the only problems I heard about this bike is the clutch slave cilinder (which gets changed in warranty).
