Compared to Japanese dual sports, how reliable is the KTM 690 Enduro?
For many riders, reliability of a motorcycle is a key factor, whether they intend to make a long trip or simply use their bike as their means of daily transportation. In KTM, they have a reputation for making highly performant machines, but not so many people trust their long-term reliability like the ones from the Japanese manufacturers such as Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, and so on. Specifically, there has been talk of the 690 Enduro's reliability. Are the worries about its reliability well-founded, or is the notion of Japanese dual sports being more bulletproof accurate? So let's take a look at real-world use cases and what type of maintenance is required.
I have 30,000 miles on my 690, and it's been rock solid. Just maintain it, and it will treat you right. It's sure to need a little more attention than a DR650, but the performance difference is worth it.
