Anyone ride the KTM 690SM?

What's so funny?
No, haven't seen one in person or ridden one. Goofy looks can be fixed with an exhaust system, headlight, fender, new bodywork, new frame, swingarm, kickstand, wheels, just kidding.
You know it has a very nice chassis and motor. Seeing some issues with the bike from new owners over at SMJ- bad seals, normal KTM stuff. I dare ya! Methinks they're pretty cool bikes. I'd rock one, but the "Prestige" edition, whatever that is, has a gay name. Stay away from that one, unless you lick _____.

I think the bike looks great, seems like everything I don't like on my 2002 is fixed on the 2007. :teeth
^^^ Looks heavy and overstyled. If you want $2K dual exhausts ran under the motor, don't shoot yourself in the foot by buying the single cylinder. Go ahead and get the twin.
KTM was trying to outdo Husqvarna and build a 610 killer- didn't happen. Fucking "Prethtigthe" model.:buttpirate Weak. KTM 625 is still the better bike by a country mile- unless you like the Prestige labeling. You know most consumers do...

I dig the single myself, rather have that than the duals. 950 is too much, 690 is within price range.

:laughing :laughing haha flesh, you provide most of the entertainment around here!!
so, you think the "Prestige" model is only appreciated by these guys? :laughing
I was tempting fate with three poofter references in a row- anybody but you posting that pic and I would have been PISSED!!:laughing Those dudes would definately be needing the Prethtigthe model. KTM, doing their part to Pansify motorcycling.
Slydrite, you need to come ride with us hicks over here in the Wild West[ern slope]. I'll be sure to roust you for the next big loop- prob in a couple of weeks, hopefully y'all will be freed up. I have what's getting to be one of the nicest HVAs in the danged world- want you to ride it, see what you think.
Catch you on the flip side!
