Stock 690 power is quoted by KTM at 49kW (66.6hp).

Rear wheel power is normally on a chain driven bike about 8% less so theoretically the 61.3hp and according to the dyno it pretty much is...



Most stock XTs make around 43.5hp on the dyno. The 690 in stock trim is 41% more powerful than an XT (on paper anyway) - which is, in any ones book, a LOT more!
