Parts ain't cheap,secondhand spares are virtually nil so it's the expensive route at a dealer,assuming you have one local,but the deal breaker for me was the seating position,I could suppress every other doubt I had and that was quite a few,but the seating position!!!! I just couldn't get on with,if you do then it's worth a try,but I found them just impossible,which is a shame because they look the great.

Ive had a 690 Enduro before and loved the engine.
Actually here in Sweden i can get a hold of KTM parts for about half the price of Yamaha spareparts. So for me it would be cheaper owning a KTM in the long run if i want to buy some Yamaha/KTM spare parts.
