Ever since I threw my leg over the 690 Enduro R, I was in love. Since then, I’ve upgraded this motorcycle into a rally replica, and have gone on countless journeys both on and off road. I’ve met some of the best friends of my life on this KTM, and have made many memories that will last a lifetime!

I swong my leg over a wild 525 mortard, kicked her over and got the rowdy single bellowing. Bangs and pops on the overrun… addicted. Then came a xc250 2-stroke for the trails. 690 duke for the corners, upgraded to 790 to travel the country, and now 1290SD. I am always drawn back to the orange weapons and every bike has been amazing.

End of the year route to say goodbye to the year with the best off road machine

One of my proudest moments so far: becoming a true Orange-Bleeder by getting my first KTM Motorcycle, a 690 DUKE. Now I am READY TO RACE into new adventures

No matter the challenges, the love for riding KTM motorcycles is fuelling dreams, it’s a bond forged in the thrill of the ride, the freedom of the open road, and the unmatched exhilaration that only a KTM can provide.

Southeast Asia is an explorer’s paradise of lush green mountains, temples and unexpected cultural finds. My KTM 690 Enduro R is the perfect companion for turning off the marked roads and diving deep into uncharted territory. These knobby tyres have eaten up 8,000km so far.

Every first time is unique. A few months ago, it was my first time (and certainly not the last) on a racetrack (in Mettet, Belgium), with a superb KTM 990 Duke and a friend. What a day, what a machine, what a pleasure!

I grew up around motorcycles. My dad owned a small motorcycle repair business, and it was here, after school, where I gained knowledge of the oily bits that make bikes move. Over the years, I became more and more obsessed with KTM as a brand, and have been a staunch orange-bleeder
