2023 KTM 690 SM: OEM Crash Bars, Secret Tail Tidy, Set Suspension, Axle Sliders, Case Protection...

Initial setup of the KTM 690 SMC R! I had price I would pay for this bike in mind. It showed up on Cycle Trader for that price. So I bought it. This video is the initial mods. The reason I chose the SM over the Enduro is that I knew I would Super Moto the Enduro. They are basically the same bike, but the SM version comes with 17 inch tubless wheels, handlebar brush guards, and better brakes standard. I will be adding some 50/50 tires after the stock tires wear out. Below are links to docs and items used in this video. I do get a commission on the Amazon and Ebay links. It would be kind of dumb of me not to use affiliate links where possible, but do not feel obligated use them.
