BIG thanks goes to Marc who was crazy enough to swap bikes with me and gave me the opportunity to ride his Duke!
---
Anytime I get on an Austrian one cylinder bike I'm fascinated with it. Not because these are especially good to ride but because of the fact that I struggle with their handling quite massively and STILL have tons of fun hooning around :)
---
The owner of the Duke installed the "error counter" to help improving his riding technique. You should press the counter once any time you make a mistake while riding. In order to prevent mistakes you first need to be aware of them. The counter helps a lot with that. You don't necessarily need a thing like that on your bike though. You could also press the indicator button for instance each time you've made a mistake. Just to help with getting more aware of your riding errors. If you're aware of your errors you can start working on them and soon they'll disappear.
I myself never used this technique but I'm guessing that my riding would have improved A LOT quicker if I did.

disclaimer: The digital speedometer was altered in post-production to make my riding look faster. I actually never exceeded 45kph while recording this video. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Ok, here we go, fullscreen, 1080p 50fps, pants down...
+Andrew on the Husky ahahahaha :D
that escalated quickly
Hold up...
😂
So the people who swap bikes with you... Do they even watch your videos???!! Hahaha
+shadetree surgeon hahaha I don't even swap bikes if they don't give me permission for a bit of hooliganism ;)
Good man... gotta get that disclaimer in there lol
Maybe the SDR should be given a chance to be ridden by Schaaf...I'm pretty sure KTM say you can skip a valve clearance service if an Austrian rides your bike like a nutjob xD
+Finnoctane ahahaha actually I think only solid Japanese quality from the 90s was made to survive the Schaaf-treatment for longer than a couple of weeks ;)
I have a 2018 690 duke and I am regularly tracking it for the last 3 years. This is exactly how I feel. I love going quickly through the gears and revving it’s guts out. It’s so addicting. It’s hell of fun of a bike to rip it around the track or basically anywhere. What a hoot! Cheers Yaal!
What an amazing video and audio! Kudos.
Thanks man
I've been enjoying your videos for quite a while and you have been one of my motivations to get a bike. Now that I own one, every time a video of yours pops up I need to go riding! Great video!!
+Malvadore I love to read this! Thank you very much!
It is really cool that you responded to every single comment on this video (which was awesome as always).
+BornToDrive1500E of course! YOU take the time to watch and comment so I better take the time to respond as well! Thanks for noticing!
Nice one, just buyed the Duke 690 from 2018, and it's a really good bike, very fun to ride. And that single cylinder sound is wow.
awesome, congratulations!
Thank you. I can confirm the fact that the "old" generation is harder to ride. I tried the 2015 Duke R, and it vibrates a lot more, and isn't as smooth at the last one. Thanks to the balance cranckshaft added i guess.. Anyway, thx for all your cool videos.
Thinking on you, sending good vibes, as you asked for. Keep fighting!
thanks a lot mate
That was funnnnnnnn and worth waiting for. A single cylinder engine behaves so differently from a twin cylinder, jumping from one to the other must feel very strange. If there's one thing i don't need it's an "Error Counter", i wouldn't be safe riding because i'd be pressing the counter instead of concentrating on riding badly !! With me the more i think about riding well the worse i ride!!. Ride safe and keep it shiny side up.
+Jeremy Markham thanks Jeremy! This works best for me as well. Switching my brains off allows me to enter this relaxed yet focused state of mind which I need for riding :)
whats the thing js next to handle bars.. looks like a backpack..or is ur cam mounted on ur helmet
Awsome vid I too have a 2010 Duke yea does feel abit slow through the tight corners but it still cleans up bigger bikes exiting the corner. What Camera are you using btw?
Amazing bike. I drove one a couple of years ago (from a friend). Very addictive. Seriously thinking about purchasing one myself!
Good choice!
I enjoyed this video a lot. For a moment, I was driving that devil bike...love it!!!!. Subscribed....
awesome!! Welcome!
Great stuff as always chap :)
+The Swiss Motard thanks :)
lol, i cannot stop binge watching your videos
Good!
Sick riding mate
I’m going to buy a duke 690 2012, you think that’s a good bike for a beginner?
I just purchased my 2014 KTM Duke 690 Supermoto last week. Mine only had 1,420 miles on it and is like new. I am also running the stock exhaust and can verify that it sounds just exactly like your video. I have only ridden 100 miles so far but the handling is pretty nice on my Duke. Happy trails and many happy rides. Guy in Columbia Mississippi
Awesome! Enjoy your Duke!
Did you test ride post 2016 models? Apparently less vibey, but I’m asking as never tried either pre or post 2016 Duke 690 models.
love this video, nice riding dude
thanks man
May the force of wheelie be with you ^.^ Great video on the ktm 690
+Keith Wong thank you Keith!
Nice aaaaas always, mein lieber Herr Schaaf! :-)
+[AUT] dibiso danke vielmals mein guter Herr dibiso :)
Nice vid & congrats for your 15k subs! Whatever bike you ride, it's always very enjoyable to watch you riding on a beautiful curvy road. And your wheelies are as good as mine... 😉
+MrKiddo merci :)
+Schaaf Is that going to be your new bike mate.
+John Saunders even if I had the money, no. Not for me.
What will be the bike for you if had the money mate.
+John Saunders Triumph Street Triple RX
The Sound is beautiful ^^
+K.W.-Riders indeed!
Very nice vid !! I love the sound of this bike !! The road is nice too ! And congratulations for your 15k subs ! When a video with the Feiyu ? :D V
+BikeFury thank you! Next year. It's too cold for quick rides now in Austria :)
Schaaf Ok :D
I love this video so much that I've watched it over 5 times now because the sound is so horny on speakers with a subwoofer and your the only one I found that uses the power of this beast 😍
that is good to know, thanks :D
the camera field of view is very nice!
+B Ø Ø M E R glad you liked it! Thanks!
Have you tried a KTM 990?
Is that the stock exhaust?
which bike is more easier to handle the 690 r 2014 or this duke 2010?
2014 R
The Duke certainly looks better in the high speed stuff than the slower corners. And by high speed I mean up to 45kph like you say in the description.
+troyboy986 :D :D
Hey Schaaf, I know it is an old video but... What is your overall result? I think about buying a 2013 one. Would you recommend it? If not, are there any other alternatives?
Personally I don't really like how it rides. Although I tried a 2014 690 Duke R model once as well. That felt quite a lot better to ride.
Schaaf Danke dir :)
I hope its ok to ask you something: whats ur opinion: I will get my drivers licens at age 36 meaning I can ride any bike with no limitations. For example should I start with Duke 390 with 48ps or a Duke 690 with 72ps. I am very interested on your opionion! Is the 690 to much for bloody beginner?
I'd definitely recommend something like a 390 Duke for the start
How does this ride, comfort wise on the highway? Say 100-120 km/h for 45 mins to an hour?
never tried
Iiiiiiiiiiiiiauuuuuuuuuu!!!!! One more time incredible video. Congratulations
+Rider Barcelona thanks man!!!
I wonder what would be your impressions after riding the 2014 ktm 690 smc-r.
+klstrucker930419 the brakes on the R model are incredibly sharp, sharpest brakes I've ever used. And the handling was a lot more "willing" and easier for me. Other than that they feel very similar.
Super Video! Was mich interessieren würde: Habe seit kurzem eine Duke4 und beim schalten vom 5. in den 6. ist mir das gleiche passiert wie dir am anfang das nicht wirklich ein Gang drin ist bzw. weiß nicht wie ich das sonst nennen soll :D
Ist das schlimm fürs Mototrrad bzw. ist das was typisches für den 690er Motor? Wenn du was weißt wäre super ;)
ob's typisch ist, das weiß ich leider nicht. Ist aber nicht weiter schlimm
Love the exhaust note & video. Wish the 690 DUKE was launched in India as well.
Guess, I'll just upgrade from my 2015 DUKE 390 to a 2020 790 ADV.
Sounds good to me
Hello friend, i have exact the same. I love my duke. What is your exhaust?
Stock
What is the best small capacity bike you have ridden?
CB500 PC26
It sounds better than I thought it would. It actually sounds pretty similar to a 270 degree Parallel Twin at higher rpm
had 2010 690R...still rides awesome! great machine
Nice video mate
thanks mate
Are the Duke690 bikes before 2016 noticeably/annoyingly vibey?
@@garyk8285 they are a bit. They are nervous and not good to slow down in traffic
+Schaaf Ich wollte schon immer mal fragen, ist es denn nicht schädlich fürs Getriebe wenn man ohne Kupplung (hoch-)schaltet? In deinen videos machst dus fast immer und dein Getriebe scheint ja noch zu leben
meinst du wirklich, ich würde Mopeds von Freunden ohne Kupplung bedienen, wenn es schädlich für das Getriebe wär? :)
Ne eben nicht deshalb war ich ja verwundert... Aber wenns so ist dann kann ichs ja bei der nächsten fahrt mal probieren :)
I think your video and RJ's video sum up the two aspects of this bike.
Either way, nice ride, next time i'll manage to catch a ride on one i'll have to get a section of "clean" road to push it above 100. It seems to behave differently. If that's the case, i might just buy one as a project bike for mini excursions. I actually liked the way it behaves. Now, if something could be done about the excessive (in my mind) vibrations/travel time. It would be perfect.
I saw the counter technique once before, in our club there was this older guy, for me at the time, he had one just like it, but he Macgyvered it with a bicycle horn mount.
+aserta :D The vibrations definitely would be too much for me on longer distances. I think I wouldn't be able to ride more than 200km on that thing.
Hey :) Vielleicht ließt du das ja noch. Ich hab eine kurze Frage: und zwar bin ich 1,86 groß und damit leider zu groß für die meisten Bikes. Die neue duke 690 passt mir sowohl vom Kniewinkel als auch vom allgemeinen sitz nicht gut. Ich hab dann die smcr 690 probegefahren und da sitze ich sehr gut drauf, die ist aber sehr teuer. Die Duke III sieht von sitz der smcr geht ähnlich und deutlich günstiger als die smcr, deswegen überlege ich mir die zu kaufen und wollte mir da aber erstmal noch einen Rat holen. Vielen lieben dank schonmal :)
Probefahren!
What exhaust are you running?
stock
Awesome!
+Biker Boyz thanks!
please help me with audio! i am getting tons of wind noise.. HILF :D
Damn neutroll's! Top video and it couldn't have come at a better time as I'm interested in test riding one. Also; do you own your own road over there which you can close to cars when ever you're riding? I only saw one car on that run!
+Carmo Motovlog hahaha well spotted ;) But luckily on these kinds of roads there's usually really little traffic!
which exhaust do you have?
stock
Hi guys! Anyone can help me? I’m 6’2 (188cm) do u think I will fit this bike? Really want but never sit on it.
Yes you will
Geronimo !!!
;)
Well Done & Shared...
& wheelied
+Dracati Ducati hehehe thanks a lot Dracati!!
Servus :) Schaaf kannst du mir verraten was für ein Auspuff auf der 690 Duke drauf war ?
+BrenNnerX Servus! Ich weiß leider nur, dass es ein Sebring war. In dem 2 Monate später aus einem Riss schnell ein gigantisches Loch wurde. Sah mir nicht unbedingt nach ordentlicher Qualität aus... hat aber schön geklungen ;)
okay Danke dir für deine schnelle Antwort :)
Hey Shaaf, just stumbled upon your videos. Subscribed actually instantly at the end of watching this! At first i was convinced you are complete nutcase :p but you’ve got mad riding skills and are always in control.
Now i wanted to ask you a question and get some of your thoughts. I’ve been riding for about 8 months now. Started with a 125cc bike but a 150cc has been my most ridden. None of these bikes have been my own but borrowed from friends. I’ve got my endorsement and everything, now just looking to get my own motorcycle.
For a long time my mind was set on duke 390 but for the past one month i’ve not been able to get the duke 690 out of my head. I am now leaning towards the duke 690. What are your thoughts? Bear in mind that getting a bike in my country is not the easiest or cheapest thing to do, so i will be looking to keep it for at least 5 years to forever. If i go down the 690 route i plan to restrict it to the output of a 390, grow with it and then take it off. Almost like what i assume you did when you started riding.
Sorry for the long comment, i really do hope you respond but understand if you can’t. Oh btw i’m also in my mid 20’s if that helps.
i wouldn't really recommend the 690 as a beginner bike but then again if you restrict it for a while you should be fine. After all it's very light weight and not very difficult to handle
hey man, thanks so much for the response really appreciate it! Duly noted...very much enjoying your videos
What was your view of the Duke? I was going to get one until i watched RJ's video and i hear the engine and it sounded terrible, whats your quick review of the bike?
I'd only buy something like a Duke if I had decent twisty roads nearby. IMO the Duke makes sense (a lot though) in the twisties only.
+JStanger16 If u buy a Bike testride it yourself and dont let some Videos influence ur Decision.
Even if the producers are some nice guys :b
that's very true!
+xMighty777 Exactly. Even RJ said in his video that people interested by the Duke should test ride it themselves. Bikes are like women: some are more desirable than the others, but at the end, each one will have a lover...
whats the ,exhaust name?
stock
Error Encounter ala Berndt Spiegel :) finds super das du immer einen Google Maps Link dazustellst, anders wär ich wohl nie auf diese geniale Strecke gekommen! Danke!
+80tier genau!! Und ja, dafür ist der Link da! Danke DIR!
+80tier Yeah, Bernt Spiegel wrote a great book! And it seems like there is also an English translation: Die obere Hälfte des Motorrads -> The Upper Half of the Motorcycle
+Nor Treblig it's a fantastic book indeed.
Very nice video. It's better than the Honda CB500?
Nothings better than the CB500
999th like on this video is from me. 😁👍 Awesome ride by the way.
thank you!!
Found it!! Love it!! :-P
awesome :D
enjoyed the ride and the good humor - ps if you want more twisties , head to the south of france - monaco end - we have a few with attitude ( and altitude)
+paulus maximusshow I haven't even seen 5% of the twisties Austria has to offer but thanks one day I'll make my way to France. I'll start with the French Alps though.
What exhaust you got on it
stock
@@Schaaf nice
was würdest du nehmen? Duke 690 oder MT 07??? Fahrstil in etwa wie deiner ;)
kommt ganz auf deine eigenen Bedürfnisse und Wünsche an
@@Schaaf mit welchem hat man denn wohl bei A2 am meißten Spaß?
ich persönlich würde mir eine A2 Maschine nehmen, die man nicht drosseln muss. Aber die Entscheidung musst du selbst treffen, je nachdem, auf welcher Maschine du dich wohler fühlst. Die macht dann auch mehr Spaß.
1:24 I think bike was drunk lol
+Bli7krieg it felt like it hahaha
just picked up a 2010 690 duke with 8k on odemeter first bike still need my endorsement tho but i want to get on it so bad
What tankbag is that i am thinking on buying a duke and maybe go on vacation with it to austria 😉
sorry I don't know that since this bike wasn't mine
Schaaf no problem still thanks for the info
How to turn of the garbage poping up from down side of the screen?
very simple solution: just go and watch someone else's video
You mean you don't want extra information? Without it actually hiding any serious footage? Dear god, some people...
His shaaf did you like the 690
fun but not my type of bike
My 2008 ktm Duke 690 same when hard on the throttle can get a false neutral 4,th to 5h but its a great bike good video ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️
thanks!
ah immer so schön, wenn ich deine Strecken erkenne :) Obwohl ichs in die Richtung noch nie gefahren bin..
ist auch schön so :D
My friend, you shoult be try the yamaha tracer or mt09
+22rember I would love to
What exhaust is on this bike?
stock
@Schaaf i doubt it is the stock. I bought mine with stock and was really quite. Now I've installed the akrapovic and sound like yours in the clip. Naughty bike sound..😂
I think I definitely want one now
thanks Mike
Good video, entertaining. The whole time I was thing your going to drag peg here.
+Piston Slap not in a 1000 years with that thing :) Thanks!
That was amazing
thanks!
Hammer Öider! Ist das ne 2013 Duke?
Akra is dranne
haha an error counter 😂 I have to buy one of those for a friend of mine
+Spurm hehehe
I swear i wasn't drunk :D bester Kommentar
+DrFuuuuuu :D
i love the sound of these 1 cylinders :(
Good fun nice riding nice vid ride lucky bro
thanks
wow ,i'm the fist to comment :D i am honord.
Nice video as always, pleasure to watch.
Ride safe !
+Mircea Radu hahaha you've been caught by the famous "No Comments to show" bug ;) Thanks!
+Schaaf sh%t , now i see :))
+Mircea Radu :D :D
Excellent vid as usal Schaaf how about a 1000cc bike next? Love to see you on a Harley....that would be funny! :)
+ninjanelly350 thanks Nelly! Oh man I would LOVE to ride a Harley one day! But at least a "normal" liter bike I should be able to get my hands on next season.
+Schaaf I don't think you would break any records taking a Harley round some corners,wear out the footpegs/exhaust definitely!
+ninjanelly350 highside induced by violently scraping footrest
+Schaaf New Gear?
+Mike xxXxx (UnlikeMike) the gloves!
+Mike xxXxx (UnlikeMike) oh, and I knew there would wheelies that's why I stuck untill the end :P
The disclaimer ~
At some turns i had the feeling the bike would leave you behind going away razor cut style, hella scary to be honest
+Cat Caturday ah it was a rather tame ride after all :D
Quite fast for so someone who stay under 45 kph ;) Saw the wheelies, I don't know how to do one perfectly neither :)
+William Shire ;))
this bike is perfect for your riding style bro! a few practice and you will bank like rossi. 😀
+DeathstalkeR naw, I could never do tours on this thing :D
I typed "ktm duke 690 full throttle" in the search bar and i think i found the right video
I wasn't even doing full throttle haha
@@Schaaf seems so powerful
your bike goes njarrrr, this one goes brrr, I like njarrr more, but brrr is also cool
+Whabie Whabligone hehehe I also prefer the njarrr ;)
But nothing can beat a ringadingding
The cool thing about the duke 690 and the smaller dukes is that you can ride them like a sports bike and go full lean or ride it like a supermoto with drifting.
if you're skilled enough, yea! I am not :D
+Schaaf lol neither can I mate. Maybe one day. Subscribed ;)
so this is your new bike?
+manuel grohse read the description ;)
+Niklas L. to be fair here I added the bike-swap detail in the description 3 minutes after publishing the video.
Schaaf
Achso, dann kann er es ja nicht wissen^^
Hehe
Buen video amigo, así se conduce una 690... Te invito a ver mis videos en 690
fesche fahrt... ich finde ja den sound super.
ich auch :)
Awesomenessnessness!! I have the same bike, and yes it feels weard at first trying to go hard into tight bends. Feels like it wants to kill you by going strait on into the nearest tree. But its all in yr own head. The seating position just makes you feel yr on a dirtbike and you shouldnt be able to lay it right over....but once you get used to trailing the rear brake slightly and dropping it over its such a rush!! That single braaaap out of every bend is so addictive!!!! Braaaaaaaaap!!!
thanks for the comment!
RJ hat auch ein Video mit einer 690er Duke hochgeladen, aber bei dir sieht es eher nach Fahrspaß aus. Er war wohl nicht so ganz zufrieden mit dem fahrbaren Untersatz. ;-)
+CARLOvonH Klar wenn man die 4 Zylinder Dose von BMW gewohnt ist. ;) Die LC4 Modelle habenhalt noch einen besonderen Charme. XD
Rainer Diabl Da spricht nichts dagegen. Die haben einen gewissen Charme. :-)
+CARLOvonH Die LC4s aus den frühen 2000er Jahren sind meine Favoriten! (der SOUND!!!) Hoffentlich darf ich sowas mal fahren :) Danke Carlo!
Schaaf Die Hauptsache es macht Spaß. :) Bei dir sieht man es in jeden deiner Videos, der pure Adrenalin-Schub. Danke fürs hochladen!
Disclaimer: the speedometer was altered in post production schaff never exceeded 45kmph
True that
I read the description but why don't bother to hide the speed ? Lazyness, Mr. Schaaf ? ;)
And damn, with this exhaust, it sound really good, as opposed to RJ's opinion on the stock one...
+Porkycheun there's no reason to hide the speed since you can calculate it with the white posts on the side of the road anyway...
+Schaaf You've got a point I guess but like you, the policemen are lazy too and probably go where it's easier I believe (?). But anyway, great video as always ! :)
+Porkycheun At this point the law in Austria does not count a TH-cam video as decent evidence. But this could change any moment. I'm aware of this fact and I'm simply doing all of this here as long as I can :)
+Schaaf That make more sense then, just hope the law won't change anytime soon ! ;)
Also ich kenn das von meiner smc r, anfangs war ich so verkrampft beim Kurven fahren, speziell bei langsamen rechts kurven, dass ich oft gegen das Motorrad gearbeitet habe, also ich habe es nicht einfach umgelegt und eingelenkt, sondern hatte oft das problem , dass ich ewig weit über den scheitel gebremst habe und plötzlich fand ich mich auf der gegenfahrbahn wieder !
+schenebod verkrampft war ich null. Da wär ich sofort stehengeblieben und abgestiegen, weil zu gefährlich.
Schaaf
naja das war auf straßen wo so gut wie nie jemand unterwegs ist, mittlerweile beweg ich das ding auch anders
+schenebod geht mir doch gar nicht um die anderen. Ganz allgemein. Sollte ich mal verkrampft auf ner Maschine oben hocken oder verkrampfen, dann hör' ich auf. Weil dann macht man (wie du siehst) Fehler.
I always thought the suzukis also rolled into corners a weird way.....
Why i dont own one...
I just remembered....
I have to clean the oils off the left side of my rear.....
Notice a bit of a slide yesterday on a sharp corner.....
Better go do that right now.....
Good job...u didnt wreck ur buds bike....
+Earl Tash better do that indeed! ;) Thanks Earl!
+Schaaf : I took a 80 grit sandpaper n sanded the stuck on slimmy crap off the chain side. Sometimes if it is oily i'll take a rag with a little gas n wipe it off first n them wipe dry. I tent to use a chainsaw bar n chain oil on my chain....Makes a bit of a mess if i hurry n now take time to wife the drippings off be4 i ride. But u know that little slide feeling kinda wakes my ass up a bit.....LOL
Du bist ein toller Fahrer .
Danke
i like to see you drive a 4 cylinder bike
+22rember there is one video of me doing just that on my channel ;)
2024 and still fucking good
Thanks
Ich bin mir auf ein Mal gar nicht mehr so sicher, ob ich dir meine Kati anvertrauen würde, wenn ich Mal bei dir in der Gegend wäre :D
+edgesofsupermotard Angst vor artgerechter Haltung? ;)
