I think you mean the KTM 950/990 Adventure one.

The 690 comes with a high guard as standard (what with being an overgrown enduro bike), but most of the Rally conversions I've seen use a 9x0 one with some sort of brackets to make the guard fit the single-disc fork legs.

RallyRaidProducts sell both the guards and the mounting kit. I think JMo went down this route with her bike. I took one look at the price and decided my �25 high mudguard would be fine after all.

Of course unless you are fitting WP forks you'd have to just buy the mudguard and figure out your own way of fitting it.



I think what you really want to do is fit a WP front end
