KTM Enduro 690 R 2023 Owner's Manual

To adjust the suspension settings for off-road riding, start by setting the rebound and compression damping to softer settings to better handle rough terrain. Consult your owner's manual for specific settings recommendations based on your weight and riding conditions.
First, check the basics: ensure the kill switch is in the 'run' position, the fuel is turned on, and the bike is in neutral. Check the battery connections and fuses. If the problem persists, consult a professional mechanic as it might be an issue with the ignition system or fuel injection.
It's recommended to change the engine oil every 10 hours of operation for optimal performance. Always use high-quality, manufacturer-recommended oil to ensure longevity and reliability of the engine.
Remove the air filter and gently wash it with a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to dry completely before re-oiling. Reinstall the air filter ensuring a proper seal to prevent dirt from entering the engine.
Start by checking all electrical connections for corrosion or looseness. Inspect the wiring harness for any signs of damage. Use a multimeter to test the battery and charging system. If issues persist, consult with a professional mechanic.
For mixed terrain, a tire pressure of 18 psi in the front and 20 psi in the rear is recommended. Adjust the pressures slightly based on specific terrain and load conditions for better traction and handling.
Regularly clean and lubricate the chain every 300 miles or after riding in wet or dusty conditions. Use a chain cleaner and brush to remove dirt, then apply a suitable chain lubricant. Check for proper tension and adjust as necessary.
During the first 600 miles, avoid full-throttle acceleration and vary the engine speed. After the break-in period, perform a full service check including oil and filter changes to ensure the engine's longevity.
To improve fuel efficiency, ensure regular maintenance such as spark plug checks, air filter cleaning, and proper tire inflation. Riding smoothly and avoiding excessive idling can also enhance fuel economy.
Carry a basic tool kit including wrenches, screwdrivers, pliers, tire levers, a patch kit, and a portable tire pump. A multi-tool and a small first-aid kit are also recommended for safety and quick repairs.
