KTM 690 Adventure
Been riding bikes for some years now, but will be my first time on a DS.
I live about 15Km from work and then need to travel to sites far and wide apart. Our sites are from Pta east to Midrand, and will need to be at 2-3 sites on a daily basis.
Then want to do the 200-300Km round trips every second weekend.

Was thinking of 990,690 or XT660.

Want to now if I'm looking in the right direction, or is there something else out there that might be better?

Would like to know what you guys recommend. Tkx


PS: And I'm in the market for a bike soon!!
