KTM 690 Enduro to Rally Conversion: A Complete Guide with OEM KTM Parts
Are you dreaming of transforming your KTM 690 Enduro into a high-performance rally bike? Look no further! This comprehensive conversion project brings you closer to achieving that rally-ready look and feel. With the right parts and upgrades, you can take your bike from standard to extraordinary, and we’ve got everything you need to make it happen.
A Rally-Inspired Build from China
This exceptional conversion project began in China, showcasing the craftsmanship and dedication of builders who are passionate about rally bikes. The goal? To make the KTM 690 Enduro resemble the renowned KTM 450 RFR Rally bike—one of the most respected bikes in the world of competitive rally racing.
Custom Parts for the Ultimate Rally Look
Creating a true rally bike requires a unique set of modifications, and this build is no exception. One of the standout features of this KTM 690 Enduro conversion is the lower exhaust pipe—a custom piece designed to sit on the right side of the bike instead of the left. This adjustment is crucial for achieving the authentic rally aesthetic and ensuring the bike handles as it should in off-road conditions.
But the modifications don’t stop there. While many might choose to upgrade the seat for added comfort or aesthetics, our Chinese partner opted for a budget-friendly solution by modifying the standard KTM 690 seat instead of replacing it entirely. This approach keeps the cost down while maintaining functionality and comfort.
