Commuting / city use
As an adventure motorcycle, expect a mix of road touring ability and light off-road capability.
Highway / longer rides
Range and rider comfort usually matter more here than pure track pace.
Good for beginners?
Power and/or sport focus make the KTM 690 Enduro R a demanding first motorcycle. Newer riders should usually step up gradually.

Fuel economy & range
Listed fuel use is about 4.3 L/100 km (~54.7 mpg US). With a ~13.5 L tank, theoretical range is around 314 km (real-world range varies).
Two-up riding
