Svartpilen 701 2020 in Dalby, Lund här 👋 That's a lovely bike you've got there! I don't see too many Svart/Vit here either, even though we got a dealer in Sjöbo. I see more Norden on the roads here, which also is nice of course :) Two years ago, when I started riding again after a 30 year...

Evening folks! Some time ago I ordered an O2 sensor controller dongle, since so many 701 owners seemed to consider it almost an essential mod. I didn't go with the standard Rottweiler dongle, but instead opted for one from KevXtx in Australia. His units uses the O2 sensor input instead of just...

Sorry for picking up an old thread, but I'm curious if you managed to fulfill your off road dreams :) When I was 16 I regularly took my Yamaha RS125 -80 (two stroke road bike) to the forest, not even riding tracks but just straight into the forest 😄 so I don't doubt you can do the same with a...

Thanks, and happy to be of help 😀

A nice little afternoon ride. Around 270km (168mi) in total. First stop at an art exhibition about an hour and a half away from where I live (Wanås Konst), then small country roads towards the east coast and a small town called Kivik. The pictures down below are from that place. Filled up gas...

I don't mind the Casio style either, it's clear enough for me with the info I need :) Only real gripe I have with it is how it's mounted on the Svart. It looks much better on the Vit.

Just unfortunate that the only option these days seems to be a big square TFT screen. I'd love some classic round analogue instruments on this bike.

That looks like a nice little bike :) There's a store in Sweden that might be able to give you some more information. Send them a mail and see if they have some tips and parts https://www.husqvarnaclassic.se/ Use Google translate since the site is in swedish :)

I've only looked at the parts diagrams, so a bit hard to tell what fits where. Good to hear someone tried it, even though it didn't work. Now I can put that idea to rest 😄 Cheers!

I wonder if the difference might be the sideplate plastics that go around the rear subframe on the Svart. I've taken that off on mine, and there's probably more room for routing straps under the sides of the passenger seat now. Never tried myself, but it just struck me as a possible reason why...

I have an extra Arrows muffler in the garage I could measure when I get back home today. If it's the diameter of the end of that pipe where it attaches to the underbelly cat that you're talking about :) Edit: see if these images are of any help to you

I really appreciate the effort you put into this, that display really sticks out in a bad way. Designing some kind of fairing would be great, but I think it will be hard coming up with something that in itself doesn't stick out just as much as the display itself since it's mounted so high up and...

It looks a bit too sturdy to just divert air over the tire, so perhaps there's some downforce to be gained there.... quite fascinating if that is the purpose, getting enough clean air in that location that it makes a noticeable difference.

Got a sneak peek at the new colours a week before Christmas. My local dealer had already received images of them and gave me a quick look whilst fixing the paperwork for my 701. Both the Vit and the Svart look really great in their new colours (y) Hopefully we'll see them in the showroom soon.

Late to the party, as usual :) But hopefully I can be of some help here. We can start with the origin of the name, a little etymology is always fun! Husqvarna is an older spelling of the town/area name Huskvarna. We used to love Q in words and names here, but not so common these days and...

Thanks, been looking for production numbers for the various Pilen models and years but seems hard to find. This covers some of it though :)

Last year I got the Knox Urban Pro for hot summer days (yep even in Sweden we tend to get some hot days these years ;) ). I like them a lot, never any problems with sweaty hands beyond what the high temperatures of the day contributed to. Comfortable to wear as well. Knox Urbane Pro But bear...

Perhaps wrong word for it :) Muffler?

Many thanks for the parts list and the guide :) I ordered the parts a couple of weeks ago, and today I put them on the bike. Very easy to do, and will hopefully help with keeping the bike a little bit cleaner if I get caught out in the rain. The parts were around €60 up here in the north. The...
