So i wrote this as a reply to another thread and was informed that it was the 401 part of this site where i wrote it and that i should post it here for you 701 people so here we go again.
I have bought some parts on Aliexpress and some were compatible and some were'nt. So here are some parts that will 100% fit your Vitpilen 701.
Note that the links i post here often shows an orange or blue version of the item. When you are on the site you can choose color. All these parts are available in BLACK wich is what i wanted and seems hard to find.

Coolant Fill Up Cap

Front Brake Resovoir (Can't spell that) Cover (If you're on pc you can see it on my vitpilen on the banner photo *proud* 😄)

Oil Fill Up Cap

Rear Wheel Nut

No Mirror Posts (Mirror Delete) Brackets Left and Right

Keep mirror posts but close the 2 threads for water? Buy 2 x RIGHT

Grill Protector (The obvious one)

Front Fork Adjusters (Only orange. I painted mine)

Motor Cover Left Side.

Engine Bolts Cover Caps (M5)


Now some stuff you might be tempted to buy but DO NOT. THESE PARTS DO NOT FIT. FOR THE TRASHCAN:

These Chain Adjusters DO NOT FIT! DO NOT BUY!

This resovoir cover DOES NOT FIT! Not on your clutch resovoir. Also not on your rear brake resovoir. DO NOT BUY!

Don‘t they leak because there is no seal inside the cap?
If you swap the seal from the original to the new cap it should work.
 
Yeah, unfortunately I don't think there's a way of removing the seal without damaging the oem cap (and if you do there will be a hole in the centre of the seal). I made my own using rubber, but had no luck with it.
 
A hole in centre shouldn’t matter. I will try my luck with a 3/4” rubber seal for waterpipes. The outer diameter is 25mm.
 
About the coolant cap. Mine doesn’t leak. I took the rubber out of the original cap and putted it in this CNC Aliexpress cap.

The rubber is just held in place in the middle of the cap. I used a small flat screwdriver.
