I think the 690 is the best compromise between big bike power and little bike weight  And you can always put street wheels on the enduro but you can't put dirt wheels on the sm so the enduro is the better choice IMO. |

The one hitch is that caliper relocation brackets to mount the bigger rotor and caliper on the Enduro are hens teeth at present

Dont people just go with the stock enduro brake and the smaller rotor? I know not an ideal conversion, but the suspension wouldn't be set up for the street either. Its just a compromise to have both sets. |

Not sure Warp9 does one for the 690. Their site is a bit of a mess, and listings are for KTMs upto the 560. Might be that it would fit the 690 also - but doesn't say specifically. |
