2012 KTM 690 Enduro R Review
2012 KTM 690 Enduro R
A HARD ENDURO FOR ALL CHALLENGES
Can you say “Hard Enduro”? What you mean is “LC4”. The KTM LC4 models have always made their mark in this category. Low weight, great performance, rugged off-road technology and the utmost reliability have always been their core values, and that is just
what makes the current 690 R the great bike that it is. A generous 250mm of suspension travel iron out even the deepest potholes. The slightly decreased travel slightly lowers the 690 Enduro R’s centre of gravity in MY2012, giving it an even more balanced ride – as dynamic as always but even more comfortable.
Competent Continental TKC 80 OEM tires ensure reliable traction right from the go. Functional, high quality components with plenty of well thought-out details easily withstand occasional ground contacts. The power plant, borrowed from the Duke 690 R, demonstrates a perfect throttle response and lots of power at any time, thanks to its sophisticated injection and "Electronic Power Trottle" (EPT) control. Simply a true Hard Enduro that goes along. Wherever.

2012 KTM 500 EXC Review
2012 KTM 500 EXC Review
• Map select switch on the handlebars for selecting different engine management mappings
• Camel SXS seat for improved long-distance comfort
• Engine guard made of high-strength plastic for protecting engine case and frame down tubes
• Radiator fan for optimising temperature control under extreme loads
• CNC-machined, orange-anodised triple clamps for high-precision clamping of the fork tubes in favour of optimum sliding of the telescopic fork
• Knock-out wheel spindle for easier removal of the front wheel
• Full brake disc at the rear for improved heat resistance and therefore reduced pad wear
• Rear brake disc protector for protecting the brake disc from mechanical damage
• Quick-change brake pad securing bolts at the rear for quicker changing of brake pads without tools
• Aluminium rear sprocket with riveted-on steel ring gear for a combination of reduced weight and increased durability
• Wheels with black-anodised, extremely robust Giant rims and spokes with a high-quality, black tin-nickel coating.
• The same design as the KTM factory bikes thanks to Six Days graphics, orange powder-coated frame, orange anodised triple clamps, orange anodised handlebars and anthracite anodised silencer
BODYWORK
Reduced reciprocating weight and a balancer shaft minimise vibration.
The newly developed Keihin engine management system with electronic fuel injection ensures spontaneous responsiveness from the engine. The 450 EXC's new engine is equipped with a common oil circuit for engine and transmission, and two oil pumps. This intelligent multi-functionality contributes to the compactness and low weight of the 450 EXC's new engine.
NEW ENGINE CASE
The 450 EXC's cylinder has been further developed especially for the new engine configuration. The new, 15 % lighter forged piston minimises reciprocating weight and optimises durability at high engine speeds. New, nitrided piston rings ensure highest levels of resistance to wear.

All ports and the combustion chamber have been redesigned in the OHC cylinder head of the 450 EXC's new engine. NEW CLUTCH
NEW FRAME
The 450 EXC's new, lighter, cast aluminium swingarm accommodates the shock absorber more centrally, in order to load the swing arms more evenly.
Above all, the new chassis and redesigned OHC engine widen the 450 EXC's lead over the competition by a further bike length. BODYWORK
Reduced reciprocating weight and a balancer shaft minimise vibration.
The newly developed Keihin engine management system with electronic fuel injection ensures spontaneous responsiveness from the engine. The 450 EXC's new engine is equipped with a common oil circuit for engine and transmission, and two oil pumps. NEW BALANCER SHAFT
This intelligent multi-functionality contributes to the compactness and low weight of the 450 EXC's new engine.
