    Added some Husqvarna decals to my helmet

    Not perfect but digging it. More decals on the way. Matches my 701 Enduro.

    BIG ADVENTURE on my 2021 Svartpilen 401

    Congrats on the bike and welcome Rob! Agree with the others, amazing first trip on the bike. I for one hate riding when its raining hard, mainly due to the poor visibility (mine and other driver's).

    My (Favorite) 401 Mods

    In terms of looks, swapping to bar end mirrors make the bike look 100% better. In terms of functionality, a tie between the USB charger and the Husky rear rack (goes in place of the pilen seat). I hate carrying stuff in my pockets while riding so I attached a small Maxpedition bag and had house...

    Ride Pictures!

    Maiden voyage (albeit a short one) of the 701 Enduro… its a blast!! Its been raining a ton for the past two weeks, but I was able to find a 1 hour window last Sunday. The 701 engine is fantastic!! If the roads were better here I would have gotten Vit or Svart 701, but the Enduro (or Supermoto)...

    Next Generation Svartpilen! 2022? or maybe 2023?

    The big question still is, where is the Svart / Vit 901?!?!?

    Joe's 701 Enduro thread

    The OEM exhaust on these bikes has the catalytic converter inside. Every owner I've talked to has reported that the exhaust gets extremely hot due to this and its always recommended to go aftermarket if you can (you can also read about this in forums and youtube). Even Husky acknowledges this as...

    Joe's 701 Enduro thread

    I started buying stuff for the bike even before taking delivery of it (as one does), and the first two things that arrived were the USB dongle and Wings slip-on exhaust. If you buy a KTM 690, the bike comes with a USB plug that you can access from the side of the headlight mount. The Husky...

    Joe's 701 Enduro thread

    Hi everyone! As mentioned in my other thread I recently got a 2021 Husqvarna 701 Enduro. My original plan was to get a Honda CRF300L rally and keep the Svart, but after weeks reviewing specs and watching/reading reviews of several dual sport and supermoto bikes, I decided to go with a KTM 690...

    So, how are you liking your 701? I was close to getting a slightly used 2019 Vitpilen 701 instead of the Enduro. Such a beautiful bike.

    Nice to know! I've seen a lot of decal kits for these bikes, so no issue if I start seeing discoloration in the future.

    Any 701 Enduro owners here?

    Well, I pulled the trigger on the 701 Enduro last week. Here in Puerto Rico the Supermoto models are way more popular, as well as KTM models over Husky. Thanks to that I was able to get a nice deal on this one. Haven’t had a lot of seat time as the dealer was out of license plates, but they...

    Haven't had that issue with them as of today, but always good to know, thanks!

    I'm still a noob, but I these are the ones I've kept: https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-smx-1-air-v2-gloves https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-oscar-crazy-8-gloves I've read that Five gloves are really good due to the slider in the palms.

    I understand, they are different machines. My question comes from seeing that the 701 supermoto has 17 wheels. However every review I’ve read says that the enduro (with its 21 wheel) rides great on the streets.

    Any 701 Enduro owners here?

    Went to the dealer yesterday, I like it a lot and will probably pull the trigger. Seat height is higher but will not be an issue on the road for me. Need to check if I can mount more road worthy tires without having to do a Supermoto conversion (meaning new wheels and maybe changing some break...

    Got to try my frame sliders

    Very glad you're ok! Hope the financial hit is not too big.

    Issues with starter solenoid or relay?

    Thanks man! I know a lot of motorcycle and car guys like to wrench, but I just enjoy adding bolt-on mods and riding 😉

    Any 701 Enduro owners here?

    Any 701 Enduro or 690 Enduro owners here? Thinking of getting a 701 Enduro for 80% road / 20% light off road riding. I was pretty set on a Tenere 700 but the Husky and KTM are so light compare to everything else… plus I love the engine! I wont be doing 200+ miles rides so I dont think I need a...
