- I want to ride the TET and in this video I tell you why I chose the KTM 690 Enduro R to do that, over the CRF300 (Rally) and Yamaha Tenere 700. I also take you through the modifications that I've done to the bike.
Rade Garage - K5 Carbon Tower and Fairing, Skid Plate with storage, Under Seat Storage
Scotts Steering Damper
Adventure Spec - Crash bars, Rear Rack, Side Luggage Racks
NiceCNC - Rally Foot Pegs, Fuel filler cap
3-D Moto - Carbon Engine Covers, Big Bertha Brake Pedal
Barkbuster Hand Guards
Double Take Mirrors
It's now 95% my 'TET bike' and other than tyres could go anywhere.
Thanks to Ollie at Wrenchride who's advice and professionalism was awesome.
My first foray into some real travel (ie not local) will be doing the Rallymoto Icebreaker Challenges in January.
Let me know what you think about the modifications, or ask any questions in the comments below!

You've created a perfect *"motorcycle for the acpocalypse"*
Only concern for me would be that it's such a deeply attractive bike, I wouldn't want to park it anywhere out of my sight for more than a couple of minutes.
I always put at least one lock on it whenever I'm out and about and I leave the bike - even for just a couple of minutes. It only takes 30 seconds, so I do it every time. It's a minor hassle to keep my "apocalypse bike" safe!
Awesome practical mods! Im getting mine next week, feel like a kid waiting for Christmass!
6 months and 5000 miles later, I still LOVE riding this bike. Putting Michelin Trackers on it changed the off road capability completely. Good luck with yours!
Have you got your bike yet? Do you like it?
Just subbed, I’m a big fan of the 690, I don’t own one but I’ve owned several Ktm, they’re great bikes. Cheers from California 🍻
Thanks very much for your support! I've got a couple of fun videos that I'm trying to find the time to edit and one that's quite controversial...
Enjoyed watching your video. I’ve got a 2020 690 and done plenty of mods myself. Going ‘tubliss’ made a difference for me off-road as well as getting a fuel dongle. Not night and day difference, just better and wouldn’t go back kinda thing.
Hi Eddie - I thought about Tubliss and Tubeless. I do a fair amount of road miles, so mousses were out for me. Maybe in time I'll upgrade my wheels, but for now, I'm spending my time (and money!) riding it.
You put Nuetech Tubliss on the 690? Nuetech is adamant that Tubliss will not fit. They say the Tubliss fronts are good for 1.6" wide rims, rears are for up to 2.15 rims. 690 wheel sizes are: Front 1.85, Rear 2.5.
Did you relace your hubs with narrower rims?
Great looking 690 with useful modifications. 👍
Thanks! I've done a few more little tweaks to the bike and I'll be posting more videos soon, but I have had no time for editing recently...
@@ProjectMotoADV I. An understand the lack of time, even in Retirement I’m far too busy.
I’m looking forward to seeing what you’ve been up to. 👍
Very nice bike, nice mods
Thanks John - it took a lot of research and obviously a bit of expense, but I think that I've got the bike that I want for my requirements.
Nice bike mate. I have a 2021 model 690 Enduro. I went through same logic as you. Adventure bikes too heavy, smaller bikes like 300L too under powered. I have the same bark buster handguards, but also added the small Barkbuster brand, bar-end weights. They help reduce some of the vibrations at higher speeds. My favourite mod on my 690 is the seat concepts seat. Can do 12-hour rides on the bike now no problem. I haven't got a tower - but opted for the KTM small screen instead, which does a great job. After 2.5 years and 21,000 km (50% dirt), the bike still brings a huge smile to my face every ride. So versatile and ideal for Australian conditions. Cheers
Hi Glossblack - I haven't found any issue with vibrations (yet), but the longest rides I've done have been about 4 hours without a proper break. Also I try to mix up the riding as much as possible and avoid motorways/highways wherever I can. I know at some point I'll have to do some 70mph 3-lane journeys, so I'll bear what you've said about the bar ends in mind - thanks for the tip.
The seat has yet to cause issues, but like I said, I try to stay off the highways, so I'm moving around a lot I also really enjoy standing whenever possible! You've done a lot of miles on yours - it's good to know that the honeymoon period with these bikes lasts forever!!! Thanks for getting in touch.
@@ProjectMotoADV thanks for your reply, yes all these mods are personal preferences I guess. Happy to report Zero mechanical issues so far for me. It’s my first KTM so super happy with its reliability. Valve check at 20,000 km was still perfect. I really like being able to pop front wheel up over obstacles so easily, which is much harder on smaller cc bikes like 300L and the bigger heavier ADV bikes. Cheers
Very nicely modified.
Thanks Phil. There are a few more bits to add/change, but I'm nearly there! More updates to come on the channel...
I sold my 2015 adv 1190r and got the 690 as well. Absolutely love it. Suits my needs better
Yep, the lighter weight (at least for what I'm going to use it for - TET travel) is why I chose this bike.
Nice video and bike.
I got the gg es700 but went for the Adventure Spec mini fairing which offers almost same as a full tower but costs much less and less faff to install...well happy with it
Hi Twix - I'm glad you like the video! I looked at the AS Mini Fairing at the Lightweight Adventurers Festival and spoke with Greg about the design. It really is 'apples and oranges' when comparing it to the Rade Garage offering. Adventure Spec were never trying to compete with the Rade alternative, but offer a slightly smaller and obviously much cheaper option. There's not quite as much room behind for navigation and obviously the fairing on the Rade Tower is bigger. The main advantage for me is the lights, especially the high beam which is so much better. I also think that the way the Rade Tower integrates with the bike is much sleeker too. However, the AS mini fairing definitely has it's place and at that price point - it's a bargain!
Thank you for NOT saying "much 'more' sleeker. Everything seems to be much more better these days. And don't get me started on 'the boy done really well' football lingo. 🤔@@ProjectMotoADV
Thanks Chris - my Mother would be pleased too! However like most people, I don’t particularly like my own voice, so it’s tough sledding to listen back to… I wish that I had a pound for every time I said “erm”! I’m now making a concerted effort to stop “erring” and forcing myself to edit them out as a punishment where possible. Hopefully the more recent videos are ‘much more betterer’ - innit!!!
I just watched your video and it sounded great bruv 😂. Seriously it has given me some Great info on what I want to do with my es700. Thanks for your time and effort 👍
Nice setup, I have the T7 and ktm500exc, I think your 690 would be a great do it all machine
Thanks Glen. Everything is a compromise - all the modifications have added 10.5kg to the bike, but I feel they are necessary to make it into the 'off-road travel bike' that I ultimately want. It's not going to be as good off road as a 500 EXC, but the service intervals mean that I can plan long trips away... Time will tell, when I hit the trails with my passport soon! Thanks for watching.
the banjo screw in a fall will brake in case the blockbuster swings up touching the ground. it should have clearence to the handguard so it doesn't touch in a fall
That is a great tip and something that I'd overlooked. Hopefully I won't be the only one benefiting from this top tip - Many thanks!
How do you find the Garmin? I am looking at different options that i can use on the TET and also on the road if i need too.
Great setup. What manufacture are those pannier racks please? They look good.
Hi - They're from Adventure spec. Here's the link you'll need. www.adventurespec.com/shop/adventure-spec-gasgas-es-700-side-luggage-rack-1201?category=42#attr=1219 I've also done a video about these racks and the Kreiga luggage that I attach to them. th-cam.com/video/6YUdn6hQvrY/w-d-xo.html
I’ve done quite a few similar mods to my 2023 701 - plus a Tractive shock and WP closed cartridge fork internals. The single best thing I’ve done to my bike, however is get the ECU remapped. The fuelling is about perfect now (particularly needed at low revs, IMO).
Hi Rupe. I'm not sure I'm at the skill level yet where I'd appreciate the suspension upgrades! I don't have a major issue with the fuelling either to be honest, so I'll leave the ECU alone, especially while it's still under warranty. The only thing I thought about doing for the low speed stuff was to go one tooth small on the front sprocket to save the clutch a bit when going through wiggly bits... Have you altered your drive ratios?
@@ProjectMotoADV Wasn’t suggesting the suspension upgrades - mentioned as a comparison to the ECU tuning. Have you played with the two modes (road and off road)? I find the off road map quite aggressive and the fuelling exaggerates this. But if yours is fine, that’s a good result. I have dropped a tooth on the front. It did make a difference, but not a huge one.
Where did you do the remapping?
@@miro_s Dave Wood Racing, in Buckingham.
Cool video mate! If only the 690s were sold here!
HI Pohui - from your videos, it looks like your Voge 300 Rally (and your friends Kove450) copes really well with some pretty challenging roads in China! Great videos by the way - they're very informative and give a great insight into China, a place that I've never been to before but is now on my list of places to go!
@@ProjectMotoADV It does the job, haha! Glad you enjoy the videos. If you come to China we can ride together as I am always looking for people to adventure with.
Ollie had a field day😉😂, personally, suspension upgrade, Xtrig preload adjuster and rear tank fastener upgrades, silencer heavy and super hot, sidestand dongle and traction dongle (if it resets), power commander and more aggressive tyres priority. Have 500excf and 690R and love the R contrary to the above as would many Husky 701 and GasGas700 owners …. there is always compromise though. Would not want anything bigger.
The Michelin Trackers are on and they've made such a difference to the off road capability of this bike. Rear Tank Fastener Upgrade? Is that the bolts that shear off? If so, can you send me a link please?
Sorry had replied earlier but not showing …. If there is not a link on previous message the YT objects but made by Perun and available from eg Vanasche Motorsport …..
nice video! what are you service intervals on the bike? how long till you need to change the oil? and top rebuild?
It’s just had its first service at 600miles/1000km and it’s every 6000miles thereafter. Valve checks are fairly easy to do and there’s new plugs every other service. There’s service manuals for every model and every year on the KTM website… The 6000mile/12 month interval was one of the reasons why I bought the bike.

Change the stock muffler to a Wings and a switch to a 450 gear lever which is much better. I also use a OEM short clutch lever. Trackers are great but don't last very long (1000 - 1500km).
Hi Gilbert - I'd like the Wings end can, but I can't justify the cost at the moment. I've added 10.5kg to the bike, and the Wings can would offset that quite well though... OK, I've persuaded myself, just SWMBO to work on now!
Why is the 450 lever better? IE what advantages does it have over the stock one? Get back to me - I'd really like to know!
I quite like the stock clutch lever as I tend to use my middle finger only for clutch duties and hang on with the other digits!
@@ProjectMotoADV 450 gear lever is better because it has another bend and much heavier spring which gives more feedback.
I use my point- and middlefinger for the clutch, but only on difficult terrain, the rest I don’t use my clutch.
This is what I changed over the years (bought it in 2019)
-Oxford heated grips
-Wings titanium slip on
- e-gas play removed
-Outback Mototrek crash bars
-3D Moto luggage rack
-Rottweiler fueling dongle
-Oberon slave cilinder
-ABS dongle
-Rade Garage aux. Tank
-twin Air filter + 4 extra filters
-Rade Garage lower/wider footpegs
-450 exc shiftlever
-Vicma foldable mirrors
-Rade Garage rallytower with 3 USB ports.
-Cumpan cockpit assistant
-KTM handguards
- RG tail tidy
- Rade Garage skidplate
- KTM ergo seat
- KTM 450 exc short clutch lever.
Next is remapping the ecu.
Is this what you mean?
www.as3performance.com/products/as3-forged-gear-change-lever-shifter-ktm-690-duke-supermoto-smc-enduro-r-08-17-1
I like the idea of the Cumpan assistant. I've seen people that have been given grief online for wanting to know what RPM they're doing, but I figure that if Lewis Hamilton still has it on his dash/steering wheel, then it's OK for me too. Is it worth the upgrade?
Thanks for the tips - I'm sure that people reading this are getting great advice too!
Be careful with the clutch case cover. I had one fitted on my bike and removed it to check after a few rides and the dirt build up behind the case had massively rubbed into the original cover. If I was aware of this before I wouldn't have bothered fitting it
Hi Spud. I was very careful to make sure that when I stuck it on I had a complete ring of the high temperature sealant so that no ingress would be possible. Fingers crossed that I got it right. I've no intention of taking it off to check! However, when it eventually needs removing, I'll try to remember to let you know how I got on. It almost needs a cover that is either easily removable, or easy to clean behind...
I also have to adjust my banjo bolt because of handguards. Could you do it without having to bleed brakes after it?
Hi! I only loosened the banjo bolt just enough for it to move, then nipped it tight straight away.
I can’t find this larger one for sale anywhere. Only the shorter one…?
Is your oil filler cap leaking?
It’s just the really wide and long first gear that puts me off this bike.
Funnily enough I'm just about to order a 14 tooth front sprocket for riding in the Taffy Dakar next week. It's a simple mod, that means that you don't have to swap out the chain, but obviously it requires adjustment! I believe that you can also go up 3 teeth at the rear too and still keep the standard chain, but that seems like a bit of a faff, for the sake of 44T-47T. I mostly ride in second off road, with lots of clutch where necessary, so the front tooth adjustment makes more sense for me.
Make sure you spend as much as possible on security for it as well - my GasGas ES700 had very similar mods to your 690, £2700 quids-worth, and got nicked while locked in my garage when only 6 months old! Great bikes for doing big mileages on road and off - enjoy it, but for heavens sake get the biggest chain and floor anchor that you can when it's parked up at home.
Hi Dave. I've done as much as I can. Ground Anchors front and rear. LiteLock X3 going through the rear wheel and ground anchor. Chain. Disc lock. Tracker. Padlocks on doors. Outdoor cameras, indoor cameras. Cars parked in front of doors.
What security did you have on your bike/garage?
Unfortunately I was temporarily living in a rental while between houses - there was a flimsy up and over garage door, really easy to break into. Roller shutters are the most secure. I had two bikes stolen: a KTM 300 that had a disc lock on it - waste of time as they cut a chunk out of the disc with bolt cutters. The GasGas had a U-lock on it - the whole lot disappeared! My new house is like the one I had before the rental - roller shutter door, ground anchor (Pragmasis) and two chunky great chains to both wheels from the anchor. The garage is alarmed and has CCTV. You live and learn , but it sounds like you've got all the right kit there. That stuff ain't cheap but it cost me about three grand when my bikes went!@@ProjectMotoADV
Hi! After install the tool box and Air filter... Must yo remap engine? Thanks!
Hi - I didn't do anything to the mapping and it runs fine. I've heard stories of people spending lots of money on mapping, dongles, exhausts etc for not much power gain.
Ok!! Thanks a lot!!!
Looks like yours is leaking oil in the exact spot mine is(oil cap, oil filter housing), i cant figure out where its coming from, its only slight seepage, any ideas?
Hi Darrell - I took the bike into my local Yamaha dealer today and he thought that it was just a little bit seeping past the O-ring on the filler cap. Nothing to worry about, but obviously if oil can get out, water can get in, so be careful if you use a jet wash!
1:12 soon get round Spain mate with 900 bhp 😂 👋🤠👍
Great mods, but you forgot the exhaust! 😅
I didn't - I just couldn't justify the £100 per kilo weight saving!!! I don't need more power and I'm not bothered about the looks, even though the Wings end can does look miles better! I'm spending the money on camping and travel instead.
Does the real rack flex or give at all?
Nope, it’s solid and doesn’t bend. In fact I’m about to adapt it to fit a tank bag… Video of that coming soon…
I had a 690. Hated it with a passion. Something of nothing. Sold it ans got a 990R. Loved it, then got a 1290R. Loved that too. Now on a 2023 890R. I've found the unicorn. It rocks.
Wow! "Hated it with a passion"!!! There's no changing your mind! Like I've previously said, everything is a compromise and like your WR450 (118.5kg wet and fully fuelled) or your 890R (200kg DRY!!!), each are very good at either end of the scale of what I want to do, Travel, off-road on the TET. The weight of the KTM 690 Enduro R, it's power and it's service intervals were all major influences on why I bought it, along with it's ability to carry my camping/cooking/clothing too. I'll admit that your WR will beat it off road and your current 890R will be a better touring bike, but for what I'm going to be using it for, my 170kg wet, 690 (before luggage) is perfect for my needs on the TET. Not amazing at anything, but more than competent in every category you care to mention. Although I might have to test ride an 890R now, just to make sure - although I won't want to pick it up on my own!
Hi there, i know that seems harsh, But the 690 isn't good at anything. Gear box ratios are all wrong. steering lock is terrible. Fueling was crap. Clutches are weak. Suspension harsh, seat like a plank. The 890R is simply better at everything including the off road. I literally take mine everywhere. I wish i could put some images up for you to see. Its not used for touring I can assume you off that. Its my giant dirt bike. Put it this way, the last ride i did (ONE HARD DAY) here in New Zealand my friend and i was at the top of a super ugly climb on our two 890Rs. We had to walk down and ride a 690R and KTM300SIX day up for a couple of fellers. That might give some indication of how competent the 890R is. I run the Genuine KTM off road factory wheelset and Metzeler MC360 Mid/soft tyres. It rips. I'll try and get some video up with my setup asap. @@ProjectMotoADV
@@twowheelpilot i believe your ability as a rider is more at play, those who are less skilled need to choose much more carefully. I had the T7, too heavy to pick up and i was afraid of getting stuck on my own, the 690 i believe is just as capable on the road once you add a tower but off road it shits all over it. The 890 shits all over the T7 because of the suspension and all the traction control options. I have been on my 690 on high country rides and it wasn't far off the 500s that were with us, the traction control was awesome up the steep rocky climbs.
@@darrellbarry3402 Thanks for the compliment, but I'm not a pro. To be honest I normally just turn the traction control off when leaving the seal. The 890R is simply easy to ride and rides very light. I think I'd be faster on the 890R than ever I would on a 690. Roll on the KTM rally 2024. Just over a week away. Looking forward to it. Happy riding mate. 👍
not just less skilled, but also less young or less strong. I definitely agree with some of your points (gearing, steering lock, seat, …) and disagree with others. But you can’t say 890 is “better” road simply on the ground of weight: fact is I can’t lift the 890 at all, while I can lift the 690 a (small) number of times. There’s the choice for me about which to take offroad
Am I wrong or is your front tire on backwards?
I'm afraid you're wrong! The tyre rotation is correct. Compare it with the ones on the KTM website...
Thanks, I know now that on dirt tires the pattern works more like scoops whereas street tires work to deflect the water to the sides of the tire
@@thomasjongsma3632 I've now got the Michelin Trackers on, which you can swap around!!!
Awesome! Stay safe out there
jos
Maybe I missed it, what is the total money spent on all this?
Just over £4000.
@@ProjectMotoADV thanks, great vid and tons of help for this prospective 690 buyer :)
@@useless274 Glad to be of service! I've just done an 11 day 2500mile tour doing 10 road books all over the UK. I have to say that I don't think that there's anything I've done to the bike that I'd change, or anything else that it needs. More videos to come, regarding where the bike is now after 6 months of ownership and 5000 miles.
@@ProjectMotoADV Not even more fuel range? I get fuel anxiety on bikes with less than ~ 400k range. Other thought I'm having is to forgo engine guards and the luggage racks to save weight.
@@useless274 The side racks give good protection and allow for ANY luggage to be fitted to the bike. So not just my lovely Kreiga bags, but tyres, spares, you name it. If it can be bungeed, or strapped, they're great. Also they only weigh 2.7kg for the pair... Some don't like the looks, some don't like the weight penalty, but the practical nature of them outweighs these issues for me.
As far as engine guards are concerned, the weight penalty v the protection is a no brainer for me. Trying to fix an engine casing when you've put a rock through it, or replace rads, or even fairing parts in the middle of nowhere, sends shudders down my spine! Also the cost of all those repairs. Engine guards all day long. So far I've added just under 11kg to the bike including the bits I've removed, like the original front light/mask and airbox. If I wanted to save another 5kg I could get the 'Wings' exhaust, but I can't justify the expense at the moment.
Regarding the fuel range of 160miles... I've yet to go outside the UK and 160 miles is more than 2 hours of riding, so I'd be wanting to stretch my legs or use the loo by then anyway. Perhaps it requires a tiny bit more planning, but hasn't been an issue yet. When I go abroad, to more remote places, I might strap on a fuel bladder or Rotopax 5l jerry can. That will give me an extra 65 miles. Don't forget that if you're trying to save weight by not adding engine bars, a 400km range requires a lot of fuel and therefore weight. I'd go for shorter range / lighter bike and use engine guards that will save my entire trip when I inevitably drop the bike. Imagine if you drop your bike when you're getting off the ferry at the start of your 6 month epic tour and bust your radiator!!! Engine guards are a necessity, not an option in my humble opinion. They're also another useful place that you can strap luggage to, if your'e that way inclined - dual purpose!!!
i would pay to watch you wash this bike 😂
Presumably you like the bike? I suspect that you don't want to see me in a mankini covered in soap suds... Still, never say never, for the right price! By the way I like the sea kayak videos! I must get mine out of the garage...
@@ProjectMotoADV love the bike but I'd love to see that thick mud blasted off with a pressure washer 😂 The mankini is up to you but maybe wait til the summer for that 😄
"I've only had bikes with 900 horse power." - Good god! How are you still alive?
What can I say! I like to ride fast!!!
It’s not 159kg, more like 148
Dry weight is 139kg, which is a pointless statistic to use by manufacturers, as different bike have different oil and water capacities. When was the last time you rode your bike without oil or coolant?!!!
Wet weight without fuel is 146kg. This is a more useful stat to compare bikes with, but again, when did you ever start your journey with no fuel?!!! Also you might be looking at touring on a particular bike where fuel capacity (and fuel economy) are important statistics.
I wrongly assumed that 1litre of fuel is roughly 1kg, but it's actually 0.75kg. So 13.5kg of fuel = 10.1kg So the fully fuelled the bike is 157.1kg, not the 159kg as previously stated.
All I know, (having had the bike for 5000miles so far), is that it's much easier to pick up than a T7!!!
@@ProjectMotoADV I think it’s best to measure wet but without fuel, firstly because you literally never have a full tank but the first 2min out of the petrol station and more importantly because then you start to weigh in the size difference in petrol tanks, which is after. It is of course a different matter for oil and coolant
@@miro_s Agreed. There should be some 'gentlemen's agreement' within the manufacturers so that customers aren't bamboozled by stats and claims. Also when comparing similar bikes (such as the 690 and T7), the KTM wins on 'wet weight', but for long distance travel the T7 (especially the World Raid version) wins handsomely with its superior fuel capacity and larger fuel range. Obviously the suspension, handling, equipment, size, comfort, warranty, after sales service, service intervals, availability of aftermarket parts etc etc all play a part in choosing a bike, but some people will go on statistics and for those people, there needs to be a level playing field.
Instead of putting so many kg of dumb stuff in your machine (And spend +3000€ in the process) maybe you need to change those lousy Mitas: are a danger both on and off road..
Hi John - The Mitas E07 tyres have reached their limits, now that we're into the proper winter conditions and as I mentioned in the video, they are about to be replaced with some mud friendly Michelin Trackers. I might put the E07's back on next summer if conditions are dry and I'm doing some Roadbook Rallies that are far away.
As far as the 'dumb stuff' is concerned... I knew that I was going to heavily modify the bike before I bought it and was happy to pay the extra cash to make the bike perfect for my needs (Travelling off road, riding the TET, wild camping trips, Rally Road Book etc) so I don't see the additions as dumb. As far as the weight is concerned, I've added a net 10.5kg to the bike. I could wipe 5kg off that with a Wings exhaust, which would make the bike only 5.5kg heavier than standard with all the 'dumb stuff' on board. I'm fairly sure that I hosed more than 5kg of mud off the bike yesterday!
Thanks for watching and taking the time to provide some some great consumer advice that will hopefully help other people that are watching my channel.
you do realise that you are, basically, a motorcycle dealership cash cow, don't you ?
Hi Rich - thanks for your concern! Unfortunately applications to be my wife (and thus tell me how to spend my money) closed 20 years ago!!! Actually I've tried to steer away from using 'dealership' parts on the bike, with only the KTM heated grips (which I forgot to mention in the video!) being the only 'factory' fitted part. Hopefully, from here on in, the only money I'll be spending will be the entry to events and campsite fees.
