It would be used for primarily a woods bike, fire roads, rock gardens, a little bit of pavement ect. just like my "lightened" xrl650 is being used for. The 690r might hide its weight well, but 305 lbs dry is still a bit on the heavy side for me. It appears it would not be too difficult to trim 15-20lbs off it though.
Posted December 8, 2021. I know this topic has been on here a few times but I am about to get the 701 enduro back in enduro form and want to get some new dual sport tires for her. I am going to be about 20% on road 80% off road, but there will be the rare occasions that I make a 3 hour road ride with some buddies on their adventure bikes so I
The 690 R carries its weight much like a 450 4T enduro bike from seven or eight years ago and with genuine decent performance from the chassis it can be ridden at a lick through the trees. The true answer to that question is, many times over, this is a better bike.

MIPn. Otherwise I used the wet weight / curb weight as indicated by the manufacturer. Unsurprisingly, the 1250 GS loses the weight category big time, followed by the KTM 1290 SA R. The big GS is about 45 kg (almost 100 pounds) heavier than the Tenere 700 who wins this category.
I'm looking for a good long distance bike that also performs well in the dirt. The Africa twin is also on my list, but like all big bikes, weight is a problem, which is why I was considering the 690 and husky 701. I'm now looking at an old tenere 660. Claimed wet weight is 202kg, it'll do similar speeds as the 690, more comfy on road.
