690 Exhaust Upgrade
I've managed for 2 years with the standard exhaust on my 690 enduro but I have had enough of it sounding like a knackered hair dryer and want to set it free a little.

A friend has the same bike with the £600 Akropovic exhaust on there which sounds nice but is blinkin expensive.

GPR do a nice looking one for £300 on ebay. Looks like it suits the bike better than the FMF one too.

Anyone had this exhaust - any feedback?

Akrapovic without the price tag ... Wings are well regarded KTM exhaust specialists.

Because sound matters!

Question
Anybody on here actually had one of these Wings exhausts fitted to their 690E? Would be keen to get a first hand opinion for the actual bike I have.

I have checked out their website and read a lot about these exhausts fitted to different bikes and everything sounds great, just can't find anybody who has fitted one to a 690E.

Anybody?

I've had the Wings can on my 690 for 10,000 miles.
Sounds good and I've had no fueling issues.
I usually run the high power setting.

Love the bike and have had no problems.
