So... about 1 1/2 months ago, I started my KTM 690 Rally build, and after posting the beginning of the journey, now I post the final result and completion.
Work commitments had me traveling for the last couple of weeks, so… not many updates…
Finally got to work on the bike a bit more.
This time I installed the Koubalink to lower the bike about 30mm let’s say I’m not one of the tallest guys out there and this way the bike feels a lot better to me…
The KoubaLink just before unpacking and starting to work on the bike.
Accessing the suspension link requires that you have to pretty much disassemble the entire swing arm assembly, including removing the footpegs and all… takes a couple of hours to do for a noob like me…
The link after installation and assembly.
So, having lowering the bike now I will start working on assembling the rest of the parts.
Those include new rear tank cap, because everyone know the standard KTM is not great and prone to let dirt and mud into the tank…
Two side fuel tanks, new navigation tower and lights.
And a new (much bigger) carbon fibre bash plate.
For the next steps to take place I had to reroute the exhaust system under the footpegs there is a clearing issue with the gear lever that I still have to work on…
