SPOTLIGHT – THE ULTIMATE KTM 690 TRAVEL WEAPON

 

Like many people who’ve climbed the mountain that is a huge personal goal, Lyndon Poskitt was looking for a challenge. In 2013 the Englishman finished the Dakar Rally and returned to the normal world. A year later he was riding through the Old Summer Road in Russia.

Following his decision to quit the day job as an Executive at BAE systems, Lyndon built a truly special bike, has now ridden 80,000 miles and filmed the whole thing for a Youtube web series, Races to Places. We caught up with him to ask about the details of his very special KTM 690.


BRAKE:  Lets start with your bike. Why did you decide to build something so extreme?

 

LP:  Because there weren’t any production bikes really capable of going racing other than a KTM Factory Rally Replica and the Factory RR wasn’t capable of travelling around the world with luggage. The only thing to do was get building. I wanted the chassis of a KTM Factory Rally, the carbureted version from ’07 to ’14, with the trellis chassis and use that to make a travel bike. I had an ’07 690 that’d already raced the Dakar and was looking a bit worse for wear, so I stripped it down. In order to fit the luggage, I needed to shoehorn the 450 Rally rear fuel tank on. I noticed on my KTM 450 Dakar bike in ’13 that the rear tanks had the two pickups for the luggage like the KTM 690 Enduro has. The main problem with the 690 Rally tank is that it doesn’t have any structural strength in the rear tanks so you can’t put a luggage rack on it.

“It’s about 215/220KG’s with luggage and fuel, which is pretty light compared to most other things.”

From the 450 and 690 Rally I cobbled a bike together. It required a huge amount of changes, silly things like footrest hangars, tank mounts and lots more, to make it work, but we got there.

Lyndon's a dab hand with mechanical things.

BRAKE:  If you weren’t going to race, would you still have gone to effort of building such a complex bike?

 

LP:  Because of all the off-road I do, I would. After knowing what I know now, for example riding through the Old Summer Road and doing some of the serious crossings I’ve done like the Simpson Desert (He rode the Simpson unassisted with 52 litres of fuel) can all be achieved on something like an 1190R but getting through water, riding some of the really serious terrain and picking it up on your own are much harder. I really like the bike I’ve got, it’s about 215/220KG’s with luggage, which is pretty light compared to most other things.

 

So, overall I think I would go to the effort of building it again. After doing 170,000km on 950, and I loved that bike, I never thought I’d ride a single cylinder around the world., but I love the 690, it’s so smooth!

 

 

BRAKE:  What would you change on the bike from where it is now?

 

LP:  There is nothing. Everything I’ve done to the bike has made it the perfect bike for me, everything is built for adventure riding. I always see adventure riding relating heavily to rally racing so it all morphs together and makes the perfect combination of the two. If anything I’d change the seat from my travel bike onto my next rally bike because it’s so much more comfy.

BRAKE:  The closet production bike to yours would be a KTM 690 Enduro R or Husqvarna 701 Enduro, so what are the modifications you’d recommend to someone who rides that bike.

 

LP:  It depends what they want to do with it. The biggest thing for me was being able to travel 550/600km on a tank of fuel. That’s one of the massive problems with that bike for ADV travel; you’ve only got 14 litres of fuel in a Husqvarna 701 and 13 in the KTM 690. It’s not enough for serious, long distance travel and generally the bike isn’t built for that. Immediately you have to start adding tanks from aftermarket companies.

 

The KTM Basel kit is good because it uses KTM Original tanks from the 690 Rally, but there are a lot of other things on the rally bike that make it a better, stronger bike. The oil cooler, the frame and so much more. It’s hard to explain why the rally bike is worth it, but it really is.

“It’s really nice to have 80hp instead of 69hp.”

BRAKE:  What’s your favourite modification to Basil?

 

LP:  Probably putting the big bore kit in it and fitting the wide ratio gearbox. They are good mods to the KTM 690 if you’re horsepower junky and like doing wheelies or racing. It’s really nice to have 80hp instead of 69.

 

It made the bike much smoother than it was. Mine is carbureted, which I think for travel is a big advantage. You can fix it dead easily, you don’t get problems with blocked fuel filters and injectors, you don’t have so much drama with fuel pumps because you can get by with pressurising the tanks by blowing in them but you loose a little throttle response from the bottom. In some conditions that’s nicer because its really smooth and anyone that has ridden one of these bikes always comments on how smooth it is.

 

 

BRAKE:  How many hours did you put into producing you bike, including research and so on?

 

LP:  I reckon it was about 200 hours of building and production time, plus another 100 or so ordering parts and sorting other things. It takes a huge amount of time to discover and then create a solution for each of the problems on the bike but the end result was worth every second.

 

 

BRAKE:  What is the worst breakdown you’ve suffered from?

 

LP:  The Stator failed. That was pretty bad. It’s odd, but for some reason most bikes that travel long distance have a stator fail at some point. After so long they breakdown, short out and melt and that’s game over. Basil also dumped a cam rocker. I knew that was a problem with the 690 engine before the trip but it was still a complete shitter when it broke.

Jaz trenutno 'mečem kovanec' med 690 Enduro R + nadgradja in 'all rounder' 990 Adventure. EXC-ja itak mam za jebene terene, pa se 690 zdi preveč blizu in premalo praktičen za pokrivat cestne razdalje. 990 pa je kr konkreten kos mopeda za ne tako lepe terene. Vmes pa je en velik, prazen 0. Težka bo...

jskrablin :    mislim da 690 je kr dobra odlocitev, je za skoraj vsak teren inza po cesti isto

Sem imel LC4 in sem ga imel za vse,edin da sem komplet feltne menjaval 

 

Kaj pa ima kdo izkusnje da bi si zemljevid za kako doloceno drzavo nalozil direkt na tel, da nebi rabil sploh povezave. Na Hrvaskem ne gre internetna povezava ?  ali samo meni ne gre ?

BTW: H701enduro je v osnovi KTM690R, isti okvir, isti agregat, samo boljse vzmetenje z vec hoda in se par malenkosti poleg videza.

Če se misliš voziti po cesti na daljše razdalje, potem 690 ni ravno idealna izbira (da se ni pa ravno užitek) . 990 je na cesti precej bolj udoben.

Ta tematika tudi mene zanima. Se odločam kaj bi kupil , da bi bil en normalen kompromis. KTM 350 EXC-f, Husqvarno 350 FE? Da se lahko zapeljem kakšno dnevno turco-da ga ne tlačim v kombi.Če pa hočem pa tud skočim na progo. KTM 690 enduro al pa H 701, nekako ne vidim, da bi po progi vozil.

Bi blo pa fajn, da se prestavmo v drugo temo. Da ne svinjamo po eni redki temi na MS, ki je še "neomadeževana" in dobra!
