So finally I got some time left and finish almost everything. So here is the list of what I use to do this operation! The front brake and disc are not mounted yet because I gott the wrong disc & some part to the caliper. I also mounted some riserbones in back about +35mm so we will see how it will be when I mount my 18" rim in back later. I use the original stem from my Yamaha XT660R. Let a workshop ta off some material where the bottom steeringbearings are and down to the bottom to fit the bottom clamps. Perfect about the clamps from KTM690Enduro are that under the bottom clamp there is a alu screw that you can secure the stem a little but notice the stem has to be fit on the clamp with a pressure & tell the workshop not to take off to much. Therefore you have to tell the workshop to drill a bigger hole under your XT660R steam & make the screw to fit. So there where 3 things to modify my stem. #1 make it to fit bottom clamp, #2 drill a bigger hole under yout XT stem & fit the screw, #3 let them fix a small alu ring to secure the top clamp see the picture top of the steam. This fix was very easy for the workshop and they took about 50euro for everything. I didn,t want to fix a adapter to the XT front brake caliper so I bought a KTM690Enduro caliper new for about 200euro but gonna use the original brakepump with steelhose. :041:
I have the bike inte a dark garage so it is little problem to get light so have to get another light when I gonna fix the front light and wiring and more. Had to raise the front forks when I mounted the front wheel because the bike lift is to weak for this bike. You can use any KTM690 Enduro clamp it is no diffrents between Enduro & EnduroR. Any questions?

* KTM WP fork from a KTM690EnduroR 2012
* Clamps from the same fork 690EnduroR 2012
* KTM 690EnduroR front brake caliper
* EBC brake disc
* Modified Yamaha XT660R stem
* Small ring to the top clamp


So what did this cost? With the front wheel, brake caliper, brake disc and the complete fork and the workshop fix it landed about 800Euro and if you compare to the http://www.off-the-road.de/ and there http://www.off-the-road.de/XT-660/Su...X-XT-660X.html but I can adjust my handlebar clamps and got a KTM wheel, brake caliper, brakedisc and still save more than half what there costs! :D

The brake caliper is home at my KTM shop but had to work on the other side of the country but will bring it home on friday but have some other things to do before! 300mm EBC disc is shipped from germany yesterday! :))))

I also won a auction for twin stock mufflers from a KTM 625SMC so will fit them because OTR muffler is to big.

Hi just noticed your posts cant find a fork leg for my xt660x could you tell me what else fits without to much hassle to do
many thanks john t :smilies0946:

I have searched on many forums and this was the best solution for me and perhaps looks very expensive to do the fix with the stem but it was cheap & fast. There were one guy who had modify his XT660Z with YZ forks. He is a member here on XT660.com so search after YZ forks and you will found it.
