Watching Heddletown vids is making me ready to buy 2019 690, they hit the floor here real soon! Thanks for the vids!

[@HeddleTown]

Ahh lucky you man that's awesome my 2016 only has a few thousand k so that's new enough for me.. that 790 looks like it may be cool as well! :P

[@chrislalonde8180]

Do the same every year. Keeps the bike fresh for a long time. More 300 vids please

[@HeddleTown]

HaHa Good to hear.. and I'm on it! :D

[@martinh2075]

I love all your videos! I got my first bike over the winter and I have been watching all your tutorials while the snow melts out in the mountains. (I live in Calgary) Can't wait to put your techniques into practice :) Please keep making videos!

[@HeddleTown]

Thanks I hope they help! :)

very helpful, great video - come to think of it i've had my CRF250 for 8 years and i've never done this - will have to take a look and see how its holding up.

[@MidWestMX]

Nice video buddy. Helpful As always 👍

[@HeddleTown]

THX. :)

[@nesbokaj1]

Did the same on my 18 -701...dry as in a desert 😉.. I would like to see a video about how to set up the suspension for offroad and trial like driving. 👍🏻

[@HeddleTown]

Ya extra grease is a good idea for sure.. good idea for a video I will add that to my growing list! ;)🤔

[@MrSpike2450]

Nice video thanks m8, did you find the torque settings anywhere, doesn't deem to be in the workshop manual at all.

[@HeddleTown]

Yes there in the specifications section in the owners manual the two nuts are 74 ftlb the main swing arm is 60 lbft the lower shock bolt is 33 lbft and I forget the other ones!

[@bawtrlfg]

How do u get out your swingarm pivot bolt ? With hammer from one side or how?

[@Canada151337]

Hey Heddle! I'm just up the road in Vernon from you! I'm trying to nail down the torque specs in the manual, and with it being Austrian the wording is a bit... vague. I know this is from a while ago but what torques did you use? I think I'll figure it out as I take things apart but a little advice doesn't hurt! The owners manual, conveniently, doesn't have any instructions for servicing the rear suspension, and I'm too cheap to buy the service manual! Cheers!

[@HeddleTown]

Did you sort it out should be loads if info on good ol Google! :)

[@zackedwards7803]

Trying to figure out the front suspension on my 2017 ktm 690 enduro r..go it set up supermoto style.

[@andrespot]

Hi, which brand and model are the footpegs? Are they the longer version compared to the stock ones?

[@HeddleTown]

Yes much larger there made by Warp 9 Adventure Pegs!

[@davidstepan2841]

Thanks for posting it, I'm in the middle of my 2009 690 R big check up and also wanted to remove the swingarm and check the bearings. However, I am not sure how to remove it. I have already removed all bolts and both ends seem to be the same, 20mm metal tube from both ends, and the in the middle and through the engine must be another longer metal tube. I am not sure how I can remove the ends to fully take the swingarm off the bike. Any tips for me? Thanks

[@firstamendmenttshirt4768]

That's why you get one with a grease fitting. Kouba link.

[@HeddleTown]

Ya that would be handy my XR has grease fittings in all the links!

[@SierraCreative]

What size counter sprocket are you running on your 690? I was thinking about going to a 14t.

[@mikebrown4429]

where did you get that protective plastic ?

[@HeddleTown]

Google Factory Effex Clear Backgrounds it comes it large sheets 3 in a package!

[@MdubFrederson]

Looks like a good candidate for a grease nipple.
