$300 for a tiny plastic air scoop and foam with a tupperware storage container? Crazy.

Just had mine installed, love it.

I had an issue with my seat… the middle brackets in the centre of the seat warped… when I tried to get it covered by my warranty the dealership tried to sell a Seat Concepts seat He wanted to charge me almost $500 for it When I sat on it I couldn’t believe it… Felt like I dodged a huge a bullet… I almost found it to be worse than the stock seat. I don’t have any issues… I can’t ride for hours… I just take breaks, sometimes 8-10 hour days Plus I love my Husqvarna logo on my seat

300 bucks 2 years ago. Try 430.00 + in 2024 for the same seat. I ordered one but jeeze louize. The Sargent seat on my 890R is absolutely the bomb, a 600 mile seat easily, absolutely perfect for me. Its even heated but I havent plugged the wires in yet. Sargent doesnt make a seat for the 690 or I would have got one. I had a Sargent seat on a DR 650 for 25,000 miles and it was also the bomb. Guys would try the bike and marvel at the wonderful couch of a seat. Plush with out being too soft or hard, the foam is somehow kind of springy, lively feeling. Helps suck up bumps. Personally I think Seat Concepts charging almost as much as Sargent does, is a bit of a rip off. But once the word "inflation" was introduced in a big way, many have jumped on board and ratcheted prices to the moon.

The trick with seats, is it takes all kinds. Some butts love certain seats, while others dont. One thing is you need seat time, a lot, to condition a body and butt to being on the bike. I ride 100 to 200 miles a week on bicycles. And that seems to equal being able to do a 400 mile ride or more on my 890R and the butt is no problem. Now Ive also got a 690R but havent ridden it much yet. Just hopping on a bike with no conditioning will probably mean your not comfortable.

Nice

Mate I no it was a long time ago but did you disconnect the battery before fitting this .

Cumpan and cockpit should not be used in the same sentence 😅

The only informative video i have ever seen on a 690. I've seen a sh1t ton of videos.

You forgot to say that replacing the air box by the Rade garage one makes the bike much more noisy

Hi, I got the new version and connected accordingly. my bike is a 2022 Husqvarna 701 with power command 6. When I connect the RPM (white Y split cable), the bike will not start. If I remove the Y split cable, the bike starts up fine. I'm not sure if power command 6 is the issue. Do you know why and how to fix it?

It’s 2 years since this video, do you still like the K1600? Still ride this one?

Really nice job done, can’t wait to get mine here in the uk 👌

No baffles in mine. I am on my 3rd Wings exhaust. My last one lasting 11 years & it still looked like new . Great kit. 👍🏆

Love to do this to mine. Where can I buy all the gear? Thanks.

Just got my 690 the other day. I love it. Looking into this and the trail tech vapor. I like this being plug n play... the branch connector splice gives me weird vibes... but this seems much easier than the other.

you will suck in tons of water with this system will you not?

Going with aftermarket airbox is a choice but blaming and critisizing the factory box is non-sense...

Hey man, I know you posted a while back but still hoping to get a response.. thanks a lot in advance!! I am torn on this step, I have a 701 enduro from 2020 (EURO4) with an Akrapovic slip on. It has been like this from day 1 (first owner bought it, put the exhaust, sold it to me after 1000km). No issues for now but I don't have much power down low, just my perception I probably need to test another 701. I just mounted a rotweiler fuel dongle and di not notice any increase in power or torque. Do you think it is safe to but this airbox to my bike? Do I need a power commander or dyno? Thanks a lot, G

Do not waste my precious time and attention watching you unbox stuff. For crying out loud. 👎

Thanks for sharing, this was very helpful. The Q for us that don't know how to do this, do this without anyone's help? Is there a step by step way someone can show us? Thanks in advance. Kind regards.

CTP, how come you left the ugly frame stickers on? They are pointless as KTM only work off frame and engine stampings and so do the Police and Customs service because they are trained to ignore them as fake stickers can be applied. First thing I took off to expose that beautiful orange frame. Come on man! WTF?

I see this uploaded a year ago and I go to find the update and there is none :(

I recently got myself a 2023, gas gas 700 SM it’s supposed to be the similar has the KTM 690s that order myself the new cumpan dash it’s supposed to show the gear but I’m having a hard time installing the engine temp sensor. Do you have any information that can help me

Did you ever calibrate the gears?

I wonder how does this air ox compare to the Rottweiler air box other then the price difference

How much was this add on ?

Awesome thanks I was wondering how to get the fork reflectors off, the offroad stickers are required to be where mine were put on

Great post👍. Just bought a 2023 701, same bike different skin. Only a few miles on the bike so far, I am also having problems finding neutral! Hopefully it will come right, quickshifter seems to only work on the downshift? I will persevere. I also have a K1600 the 16 model, fantastic bike. Look forward to your posts.

I ended up buying the storage compartment for my KTM 690 SMC R 2019. I just got it and have taken apart my bike to get it fitted in. When I took the OEM airbox out I noticed it has two air hoses coming out. I see it has included the hose for the left side of the bike but there is also a hose coming out of the right side of the bike from the airbox. I do not see instructions on what to do with this hose for the right side. Also, the new airbox I was sent has a cage that I need to assemble myself and I'm having a hard time putting it together. Can you send me instructions on how to assemble the airbox cage? Thank you.

I got used to the stock seat (which works great at the track, btw) in a couple months and I don't even feel discomfort on 2 hour rides.

You live in a very beautiful location sir.

Thanks for the video! Your bike looks great. All that EZ access extra storage post airbox removal is sweet indeed. Bonus, you can have warmed by the engine heat lunches trailside if you wrap a sammich in tin foil in there! For those with the stock airbox, pulling the battery and putting a little Windex on the boot makes re-installing it much easier, to the point where is only a 3.5 out of 10 on my personal logarithmic pain in the ass scale. It is more than worth the nominal extra effort to pull the battery, as you are right, putting the stock airbox back in is otherwise a nightmare with the battery in the way. How is the intake noise with the airbox mod when under throttle? That is what I am most concerned about. Have owned bikes with airbox deletes in the past and didn't like the "bicycle card in the spokes" intake honk they made under throttle. Currently have a '10 slant engine Husaberg FE 450 which has a similar no airbox setup from the factory, it can be pretty annoying intake sound wise at lower RPM with some throttle to it, but once it is revved and on the cam, the intake sound is pretty glorious too. The other concern I have with the airbox replacement mod is removing the airbox's ability to isolate the intake stream from really hot air coming off the engine and radiator under slow trail riding conditions as I also have an Enduro and it sees slow tuff sstuff single track type riding off road use at times - I ride it like a dirt bike and sometimes forget it weighs well over 300 pounds. Currently running a Yosh can, and like you also the Rottweiler fueling dongle/SAS & cannister eliminators. Running a twin air oiled foam panel filter in the stock airbox. The other "engine mod" is a KTM 80/85C (185F) fan thermo switch, I highly recommend that as the stock switch comes on at 102C (215F) which is just stupid hot. AOMC has the lower temp fan switch. The charging system is robust and running the fan more is not an issue. As luck would have it, my Rottweiler mapped Power Commander is in the mail as I write this 😁 Have run PCs or had ECU flashes in past machines and always enjoyed the results. Will consider the airbox mod, but I want to see how she runs with the PC mapped for the stock airbox and can configuration. It sure sounds great with the can on it, and even without the PC optimization (the fueling dongle O2 sensor eliminator richens it up and really helps part throttle response) the bike already has loads of power. The extra storage sure looks nice though...

This is a really crappy video if it's meant to be instructional. You never showed which bolts to remove the tail light apparatus. How is this instructional?

well, the directions might be good and straightforward. Your video is not.

Hit me up if ya wanna go for a ride with another 690smcr I'm in vancouver.

Hi,with the seat concepts it hits the ground worse?

Hi man, great video I would like to put the same thing on my 701 supermoto 2021 but I can't find the twinair and the thing to plug in ( sorry for my English im French) :) thank you

Why is it called a Cum Pan?

Hey man, Question: I'm about to buy myself this bike but i was wondering did you only get the wings end silincer or the whole exhaust system from front to back. Thanks for the helpful video!

Salut , le changement du silencieux d'échappement et l'ouverture de la boite a aire nécessite t'il une nouvelle cartographie ?

After 45 Mins on stock seat I wanna cry

Nice video! Any update? Any issues? Thanks!

The SAS delete removes the pair valve which injects air in the exhaust stroke for emissions like an egr. It helps more than you know for cooling exhaust when deleted.

I have had PC5 on a 2022 CRF450 RL and it was trrrible below 20% throttle. I found out why the ecu will not let it change anything below that %. I will not put a PC on my 2019SMCR. NO WAY. I run an Arrow race exhaust and fuel dongle and stock airbox. It has plenty of power in mod2 with abs and tc off. It’s funny how KtM has a lot of money in R&D yet people think they no better with lil to no R&D. Buy a SuperDuke if you need more power. More $ than cents comes to mind.

The stock is partially for sound proofing and a larger volume of clean air to draw from. How loud is the new filter under hard accel??

Ctp supermoto I installed this on my 2019 Husqvarna Supermoto 701 and now the bike is all to hell I had to take it to the shop and KTM rep cannot understand why this is happening to my bike when I installed this I made the mistake of putting the bike in gear to check the gear indicator with my kickstand down and now no one can seem to find out what is wrong with my bike I hooked up my OBD reader and it said something about a transmission range sensor has messed up and the Husqvarna KTM authorized dealer said that the KTM rep said to take it off and put the bike back to stock why would this be causing a problem I live in North Carolina and this part is from Germany I believe why would this be causing a problem

Great video. Where did you get that t-bar?

If you stand in front of the camera you can’t see anything.

This or the Rottweiler? Thoughts?
