2009 KTM 690 Enduro R Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by KTM for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2009 KTM 690 Enduro R relies on a 654 cc (39.9 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 64 Nm (47.2 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 102.0 x 80.0 mm (4.0 x 3.1 inches).

On the scales, the 690 Enduro R measures 138.5 kg (305 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 930 mm (36.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,498 mm (59 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
