KTM 690 Enduro R Pub Share

The Dakar Rally enduro bike winner in 2007, '09 and '10.

Main wikipedia article: KTM 690 Enduro.

This is a big, powerful single cylinder motorcycle. If you're not used to what that means, you should test drive some... mind you, having driven a 250 or even a 400 is nothing like this...

It's a very capable dirt bike and can be turned into a world crossing adventure motorcycle with some moneys.
