KTM 690 ENDURO R 2013: STRAPPING, YET REFINED SINGLE-CYLINDER
Back to Bikes Next Benefit
ENGINE
With its 690 cc displacement, the 690 Enduro R's state-of-the-art, water-cooled LC4 single-cylinder engine delivers an impressive 49 kW (67 hp). It combines powerful acceleration from the very lowest revs with an outstanding free-revving nature and refined engine running. It's extremely economical with fuel and saves its owner even more money thanks to long service intervals of 10,000 km. Annoying rear wheel chatter? Prevented reliably by its anti-hopping clutch that's fitted as standard.
BALANCER SHAFT
The finely balanced crank drive of the 690 single-cylinder converts terrific combustion pressure into unrivalled single-power - thanks to its balancer shaft, which eliminates vibration without having any detrimental effect on the life of the super-single.
INJECTION / ENGINE MANAGEMENT
The electronic engine management system featuring fuel injection offers the rider the choice between three different mappings for influencing the engine characteristics. The "electronic power throttle" ensures that the throttle commands from the rider are translated electronically into the optimum throttle valve opening at all times, which gives rise to tremendously progressive power development.
