Up for sale is my Alaskan registered, adventure ready 2012 KTM 690. The bike has approximately 11,000 miles (17,000km) and comes will all the gear you need to start a trip. I finished riding up to Deadhorse Alaska late last year and have left the bike with a friend in Soldotna 2 hours south of Anchorage as I had to return to work in Australia.

*I dusted the engine during the ride back from Deadhorse, turns out there was a recall on the airbox so KTM supplied a brand new engine which was installed by The Motorcycle Shop in Anchorage over the winter.

Looks like a great deal Sam! Nice bike tour ready! Good luck with sale!

Curious how many miles/Km the new engine has on it? And what year engine has been installed? I know KTM has made some significant upgrades to the 690 engine in 2016.

Someone needs to jump on this bike ... and GO!

New 690's are over $10,000 USD.

The new engine was installed in December 2017, it only has a couple hundred miles on it. I have a buddy in AK who is giving it a ride once a week to keep her turning over. She's ready to roll!

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive.
