Picked her yesterday

Here in Pittsburgh, PA, USA. Just got my first 690 Enduro R. Had
a nice 30 mile ride home from the dealer in the pouring rain,
luckily my aerostitch did the trick and keep me nice and dry.
2016 bone stock, I definitely can tell she is all corked up. A
690 should have alot more pull than she does. I guess I need to
start with removing smog, air filter and exhaust. Glad to join
the club.

congrats!
i thought the exact same thing when i first rode mine... change
the setting under the seat to #2. the wings exhaust helps also,
but the #2 setting makes the biggest difference

Congrats and welcome to the club!
I agree, the bike felt corked up to me as well. Went for the
smog removal, full exhaust (I went FMF), and put in a LiPo
battery to start. The options are endless, plan your upgrade
path as best you can, and enjoy riding/building your 690!

Did the switch and that helped a lot. Runs much better. Looking
at a foam filter next.

Yes, switched to 2 and running much better. Had to do the 15 min
idle adjust. Next will be foam filter.
