You are braver than me my friend. I try not to cry as much as possible so I just block the $$ out of my head!! It really hurts when I sit back and think of how much I have in this beast. But as soon as I get on it those thoughts just go away and that fun factor takes over
100% agree! As soon as your riding you forget about it all haha but honestly I would do the same with any bike I have..
@@LifeWellRidden I can't say the same! This is actually first bike I've ever bought mods for! Every other bike I've ever owned I bought used and it was already modded and usually only kept them for 1 riding season! Would swap out every year for something diff. I guess I was always searching for this bike because I never even planned on keeping any of them until the first time I rode the supermoto and now I don't ever plan on getting rid of it!!
@@22smcrrider96 that’s understandable! I have added to every damn bike, I feel like I have to make it my own haha but I will definitely be keeping this bike for a very very long time! They are simply the best but I definitely want to add to the collection..
I just bought a 2020 690 smcr for about 8k$ with 1500 miles, put in around 3k$ to have this same mods and a couple more. Think is a good deal, I have a 401 svartpilen and I love it! This surely is gonna give me some more option If I want to go to the track, but I would say both bikes have similar ride positions, obviously the 690 has a lot more power. Paired with a full custom Sur-ron for off road I think I am set!
Anyways! You’re bike looks awesome and it seems like you are enjoying it so keep it up! Videos are really good! Hope you blow up on CZcams and hard work pays off!
That is a heck of a good deal there! You definilty got the most bang for your buck! I bet the 401 is awesome around town and for short/longish trips to cruise on, been thinking about a bike for lonmger stints over the 690.
The 690 on the track is a serious WEAPON! You will love it and scare the 600 sportbike riders hahaha
Thank you!! Continue to put in effort and your goals will be reached!
Bike looks awesome 👌 I had a 701 last year, best bike I've had for fun. I can pick the 22 model brand new for £8500 in UK now
They are sooo much fun and that’s a damn good price!! Do you still have your 701?
Its 18 ,000 cad out the door here
I'm into my 22 smcr about the same $17.4k but I didn't include fluids/maintenance. Out here in California msrp is $12499 my cash otd was $15400
Holy smokes.. yeah I feel ya, I actually got about another $1,600 worth of parts sitting in a box in the house haha do you have any regrets with your 690?
@Life Well Ridden zero I will buy another when this one fails I have a few others to ride like 22 mto7 full ohlins and usual mods, duke 390,drz400sm but I'm always like IL ride the 690 over the others
@@alexanderc198 holy smokes you got quite the collection! I am hoping to add a few to the stable as well, a few dirt and another long distance street
I live in Ireland and bought a KTM 1290 SD R Gen 3 2021 model brand new for €19,000 one year ago...looking at a 690 SMC R for the next bike....it's almost €13,000 for the 2023 model...
They are getting up there for sure! A lot of desire around them. Adding a 690 would be an awesome fun bike, I’m jealous of the 1290! I bet that rips!!
I'm going to get this summer but I can't make my mind the 690 smc or Enduro or the 890ar is this bike good in the dirt if I put 50/50 tires on it and how's the front forks on dirt , I just want a bike to ride to work and have a go anywhere bike so is this bike that bike ?
This would all be my 2 cents but..
I wouldn’t use a SMC R for any dirt riding, it’s essentially the same thing as an enduro minus the wheel/tires (and some other things). I have gone down some gravel roads and super easy dirt roads with no issue. So when it comes to forks in dirt, I really don’t have a good answer, just fine going over curbs, side streets, potholes and small loading dock drops haha
If you are really looking to push more dirt riding I would go with the enduro R and then purchase a set of warp9 wheels if you really want a Supermoto discipline. I set my bike up so that it never touches dirt, just street/track.
The 890 I would just keep on the road as well but wish I went with a 890 for the street and then a 250/300 for just dirt, if I could go back, I would do that!
Get the enduro R
Buy a set of warp9s for 1000.
Win.
I plan on buying an exhaust, lower temp sensor, rotweiler intake, power commander, and emissions deletes. And thats it fam
Why did you need a fuel dongle plus the PCV plus an ECU flash ..wouldn't the ECU flash to match your pipe suffice ?
Probably but I have been piling on everything.. I should try and remove it and test it..
Dang I bought a 690 , ktm 500 with supermoto wheels and a yz250x for under 17. I did not know these were that expensive new .😮
Hahah yeah I made the mistake of going all in at once with something off the lot and regretting it for that exact reason haha 3 bikes for the price of 1!
I paid $500 more for my 2024 500exc, then had to buy the sumo kit and other mods for it. The cost only hurts when you arent riding.
Couldn't agree more! The winters suck..
hey man you got me so confused. I got the mt09sp 2021 but I was thinking the sell it to get the 690 or the 701. I do one trip per year and most of the times i'm riding in the mountains backroads so I think that what I can do with the mt I can also do with the 690 plus i can do more wheelies and stupid stuff (at least I think). Also my ultimate dream bike is the hypermotard that's why I was thinking the sell the mt for the 690 or 701. Can you help a friend here and tell me what do you think
Hey man! The MT09 is a badass bike! I would love one of those haha if your doing a longer trip and want to have some hooliganism, the Ducati is a sweet bike. That’s what I wanted but the cost upfront/service/mods were wayy up there haha I’m just far more familiar with the KTM platform.
I would say if you want a fun bike that you can wrench on, buy the KTM but if you want a good replacement to the MT, go Ducati. The only thing is it will cost you a lot more in the long run.
Hope that helps? Haha
@@LifeWellRidden hey! It kind helped but at the same time still have the problem that I can't decide what I want ahahha to many diferent bikes and I want them all 😅
Thanks for the reply and keep up with the videos!!
@@diogonave I am always in the same boat 🤣 there are too many good motorcycles out there I want sooo many!!
Thank you!
Best option is to buy a used one that has everything done already. Just picked up a low mileage 21 701 for $9500 with everything you have minus the carbon fiber bits.
That’s a damn good option! Sort of wish I did a little more research into the used market before showing up to my local dealer, happy for your new purchase tho!
@@LifeWellRidden Thank you but believe me the money I've spent on cars/bikes is beyond ridiculous. Stop counting is my best advice
@@jjohn56 hahah it’s fun to look back and realize holy crap.. but also have a value on it
@@LifeWellRiddenalso, if you have the means to justify the new price, I say it’s the best way to go most times. You probably sleep at night knowing the entire service record of the motor. Lots of a holes buy new and run into the ground in a year or two and dump the problem to someone else.
@@OleMisss couldn’t agree more! The most receipts helps haha
got the same bike, I wasted all my money on performance stuff first, then bling stuff. around 3 thousand bucks, I had my DRZ over 13,000 dollars after all the shit I put on it. So I here ya man.......next bike a mt09 for hooligan stuff....
I finally got the rest of the Performance stuff and of course more bling, that’s where it kills me.. and the carbon fiber crap.. haha. I love the MT09 platform I want one so bad, I had a FZ for 2 weeks (rented) and it was by far one of my favorite bikes, seriously addicting!
Awesome I just bought another 2020 drz400sm with 1800 miles for 5800 and did all the usual mods plus coremoto brake lines and ebc pads
@@alexanderc198 oh heck yeah! I guess I’ll have to consider one.. I do want to get a “wheelie training” bike haha
where did you buy the ktm seatcover?
I got it on eBay here! - www.ebay.com/itm/154340166710?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20200818143230%26meid%3D6b3c1de4dd924b7b99fed5b4959a5130%26pid%3D101224%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D5%26sd%3D255295411496%26itm%3D154340166710%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DDefaultOrganicWeb%26brand%3DKTM&_trksid=p2047675.c101224.m-1
oh thank you, and finally the rearview mirrors do you have any reference to buy them?
@@Edu-vk4wi I also have a video install of the seat cover on my channel if ya want to take a better look at it!
They are from Amazon, link below BUT you will need bark busters, they will not work on the factory setup.
You will need, or really whatever you would like;
1) Zeta Bark Buster metal hand guards
2) Zeta U mounting brackets (to get around control cables)
3) Zeta turn signal integrated hand guards (or whichever you like)
4) finally the mirrors below!

Wow that price is crazy got the new gas gas sm £7499
Making me jealous!! How is the GasGas?? I love the wheels!
keep telling myself im going to stop after tail tidy and pipe 😅
Hahah thats never the case
For me it is a second bike, I have a BMW S1000XR which takes up all the rides one of these 690's can't handle
That would be a sweet primary! I’m thinking of getting more of a “street bike” like a 890R but a BMW is a dream for me haha
@@LifeWellRidden The S1000XR feels like an SM to ride, just heavier obviously, the chassis and geometry reminds me of the SM so much tho, love it, perfect compromise if you want the sports bike without being crunched up :D
@@PhantomMark I have never ridden one but could totally see that, and I bet it’s stupid fast!!
Hey u didn't include the parts santa brought you!! Lol.
Hahha I know.. I wanted to wait till those are on the bike, didn’t think it was fair if they are sitting in a box in the house! Haha
@@LifeWellRidden good point!
Maybe do one of these every 6-12 months and see how much more expensive our $14K bikes can get!
I am not even close to what you have in yours tho!
I got the exhaust, headlight (same as yours diff color) SEATCONCEPTS COMFORT XL SEAT!!!! (best 300bux I've spent on bike! 😂🤷🏼🤔) 2 sets of tires (need another rear b4 spring 🤦🏻) so I got about 1.5K over cost of bike!
@@22smcrrider96 that’s not bad and some of those are the best mods in all honesty! But I’ll have to do one next year sometime after everything else is done! Haha we’ll see!
Only add up totals when buying used and modifying, then compare to new and make yourself feel better blowing all that money lol... never add up when purchasing new and modding! Painful!!!
Hahah it’s like holy smokes.. new bike and new parts.. not to mention Santa brought another about $1,600… 🤪
You should have told them to eat dirt on the BS dealer fees .
Hahah I couldn’t get around it, they were selling these things like hot cakes, literally got 1 of the 6 they were getting the whole year and basically all had deposits..
When they push them out the door faster than they can get them and/or you are shopping when they just release the new model, your not getting them to drop those fees because they dont have to.
