Hey everyone I'm new to the forum and new to ktm . I just moved to northern Idaho from Southern California, and decided after 7 years of not riding that this was the environment to start again. My background in socal was mainly Honda and Suzuki 450 mx bikes , big dunes and track riding . Up here In Idaho there are miles of forest trails and back country roads to blast through . Knowing I would be riding on the street to get out to these locations and that I'd be miles away from anything I opted to get the new 2017 690 enduro R . Ive only put about 150 miles on it but it's a sweet machine!
