Getting After It On The KTM 690 Enduro: This Bike Was Built For FUN - MVDBR Enduro

[@TheAlifantastic]

This video illustrates one of the great things about the 690 - the engine has that much power and torque it never gets overworked - you have enough power at low revsto ride fast

[@MVDBR]

Yeah exactly, same with the 500EXC I had. Can putt around at low revs 90% of the time, still have a blast, and the motors last forever 💪

[@FULLPELTAdventures]

Great stuff Josh, always enjoy you ripping it up. The Fun'O'meter needle was red lining at 10/10. Regards FPPete.

[@MVDBR]

🤘🤘🍻 thanks for watching mate

[@gordonroberts8206]

Loving your channel great tracks and the 690 perfect for the trails

[@MVDBR]

Cheers Gordy! 🍻

[@jefftaswelder9154]

Way way waaaaay to much fun having you are 🤣😂👍 keep well Josh 🙃🍺

[@MVDBR]

Haha that's what it's all about good sir 😎😎

[@mrwill1969]

The most fun one can have with one's pants on 😉 as always mate making it look easy . Cheers 🍻

[@MVDBR]

Might try it sans-pants next time 🤔 Just watch that Lantana 😬 Cheers ears

[@rickc6726]

Awesome riding. 💯 Really enjoy watching your trail rides on the 690. Would love to come to Australia one day and ride them with you! 😁👍🙏

[@MVDBR]

Cheers mate let's do it 😎🤘

[@mattkaymoto]

Don't worry about appearing slow on the video, it's still entertaining. Here's a few bucks for some fuel, keep it up Josh!

[@MVDBR]

Good on you legend! 🙏🙏

[@DamonStangherlin]

I for one was glad you got on the twin for a while and rode the piss out of it. But hot damn is it f'n sick seeing you wheelie a pumpkin once again (and brapin trails more). Glad you're enjoying the bike man. Turning cold up here again, and warm for you, looking forward to the vids you have coming to get me through winter.🍻

[@MVDBR]

Haha cheers Damo 🤘 Hopefully the sic ninedy and I keep it rolling through your winter, getting harder to cope with the heat as I get older though 😂 I'll just make sure I don't stray too far from a) swimming holes and/or b) bars 😎🍻🍻🍻

[@tarms1650]

Didn’t appear you going too slow to me. Holding your own, I’d say! Great video.

[@MVDBR]

Thanks mate, just feels faster at the time. Guess this footage came out ok though, cheers 🤘

[@glossblack1098]

totally agree, the 690 is really well suited to SE QLD forests and so much fun. But not that many out there in the bush these days? I sold mine a few months ago after 22,000 km.......really miss it. Will get another one again in the future. Cheers

[@MVDBR]

Why'd you end up selling it mate?

[@glossblack1098]

I traded the 690 in for a Norden 901 Expedition. Got a great trade price. I’ve Never owned a big ADV twin so thought it was time to try one. Before the 690 I had an FE 501. Absolutely loving the 901 for bigger ADV rides but I think the 690 suits this region better. Cheers

[@thisisme7587]

Fun braaap that one. Good to see your being young again 😂

[@MVDBR]

Definitely not feeling young old cob, the aches and pains are real 😂 Good to hear from ya mate I was just thinking about ya the other day wondering where ya went #nohomo

[@DrDanTDC]

No dude, it looks like you’re going fast!

[@MVDBR]

Thanks man 🤘🤘

[@soupysocksenduro]

woohoo, love the speed and enduro ride on this video! great ride Josh!

[@MVDBR]

Thanks Jeff glad ya approve brother 🤘🤘

[@marksherman5830]

That look like fun jumping those series of bumps. Great

[@MVDBR]

So much fun, cheers mate 🍻

[@darrellbarry3402]

I have the 21 690, bought as a commuter for my 30k round trip to work. Way more fun than my T7 ever was, much more versatile. On open trails it dominates.

[@MVDBR]

🤘💪 cheers for the comment man

[@TrippyandDa]

What a blast 👊👊 Great tracks 👌🏼

[@MVDBR]

👌👌 thanks for the comment man

[@karlpdoyle]

Absolutely love your channel, your a legend. 100% agree with you on the 690, brings a smile to my face and gives you the confidence to take on more technical solo rides knowing you can get out of most situations. Fuel range is the only drawback, although a fuel bladder is an easy solution if you know your going to be tight. I've also got a 990 which is great for the longer, fast open country rides but bit of a hand full in the tight stuff.

[@MVDBR]

Hahaha legend aye 🤔 Thanks man glad ya like the channel, and the mighty 690. What a beast. I have the Rade 6L tank up front but only occasionally use it 🤘

[@easy4steve]

hey nice riding Fella , fun tracks for sure . the 690 was loving it . i find mine also being the later model a very capable bike . great fun to ride cheers Steve/Geraldton W.A.

[@MVDBR]

Cheers Steve 🤘

[@pinkiewerewolf]

Damn, that looked like a fun track!

[@MVDBR]

Sure is mate, love it 🙏🙏

[@crugwrf]

Bossing those trails , it looked fast in the video must be even quicker out there, awesome riding 😎 👍

Cheers broski 🤘🤘

[@TheHuskyGreenlaner]

Wish we had your weather right now in the u.k . 😅

[@HippoDrones]

The sloppy UK green lanes are where the fun is at this time of year! 😀

[@MVDBR]

It's been awesome this spring, getting warm af now though 😬

[@cliff1551]

1:00 nice one mate, hole back gardens like a motocross park there ye 👋🤠👍

[@MVDBR]

Yeah some trails feel like it haha 🤘😎

[@ianferrier235]

Good riding bud good riding 👌

[@MVDBR]

Thanks man 🤘🤘

[@TRAVERSE_ADV]

Its the small field of view that makes the footage look much slower than it is. If you put the lens mod on the gopro and crank it to hyperview, it gives better speed perception as you can see the trees on rhe sides of the trail in the peripherals that your eyes can see (that other action cams don't), inturn giving you a true perspective of speed. I can tell you are hooking by the way the bike is carrying through the corners and the jolts your head is taking even though theres stabilisation is on.

[@MVDBR]

Yeah, this is true. However the flipside is the wider angle flattens out the hills more 😬 I need a wider FOV for the fast stuff and linear for the hill climbs, not that I have done much steep shit lately 🤔 Cheers man

[@TRAVERSE_ADV]

@@MVDBR yeah true, the wide FOV could make everest look like a speed hump haha.

[@stoney10]

Nice vid. I’m getting a 701 in a few months. Hope to see you around

[@MVDBR]

Good stuff you'll love it, and ya never know mate 🤘🤘

Hello Josh, Fuck I enjoyed this video; It was all about a fun ride, letting loose and your skill set is great! Thanks for sharing; David...Adelaide...Triumph Scramblers...1200X and 900...all for the ride....

[@vwfez8697]

fuck ya mate !! your ripping it up . the 690 runs like an animal

[@MVDBR]

She's a beast Fez, cheers mate 👌

[@HippoDrones]

I think this is what I miss on both my Aprilia and Beta... The aprilia is too heavy to get off the ground (and the electronics kinda also keep it glued down too) and the Beta has not pulled a wheelie since I lowered it.

[@MVDBR]

Doesn't wanna pop up with the lowered suspension??

[@HippoDrones]

@@MVDBR Yup.... am def blaming that rather than the size of my ballbag 😀

[@MVDBR]

@@HippoDrones 😂 I blame the size of my keg
