The Austrian outfit produces some of the finest machinery currently available, with its 1290 Super Duke R one of my favourite bikes of all time. So, it was with a keen sense of excitement that I received delivery of the 690 Enduro R that I am reviewing here. KTM is well known for its excellent single-cylinder engines, but with a shift to twins for the Duke and Adventure ranges, I’m pleased that the Enduro R still employs the LC4 single.

The Enduro R is billed as a trail-to-trail bike and it’s surprisingly accomplished on the tarmac, cruising along perfectly comfortably at 70.
