Defect, as DVSA words it

What changed since we first read it
Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.
The same recall in other registers
No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference, because DVSA lists none for this recall. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.

KTM 690 ENDURO R in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. KTM 690 ENDURO R is named on 3 American notices and 4 Canadian. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
The American register
The Canadian register
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.
KTM elsewhere in this register
KTM is named on 54 notices in the copy of the DVSA’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same concern: DAMAGE OF THE GASKET MAY AFFECT THE FUNCTION OF THE CLUTCH SLAVE CYLINDER
2 notices in this register name DAMAGE OF THE GASKET MAY AFFECT THE FUNCTION OF THE CLUTCH SLAVE CYLINDER. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.
Reading this against the source
This page is what the DVSA published in its file of vehicle recalls, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /uk-recalls, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the KTM 690 Enduro R, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
