The Husqvarna 701 Supermoto marks a significant milestone for the brand, as it takes its first steps towards reclaiming its place in the world of street motorcycles. The 2015 model is built around a robust steel-tube chassis, adorned with distinctive bodywork that’s equal parts functional and aggressive.
At its heart lies the same 690cc, liquid-cooled engine found in the KTM 690 Duke, but with a twist – Husqvarna’s version delivers 67 horsepower and three engine maps to suit various riding styles. Ride-by-wire electronics ensure razor-sharp throttle response, while the latest ABS and APTC slipper clutch provide unparalleled levels of control and agility.
The result is a machine that embodies years of supermoto tradition, paired with cutting-edge technology and uncompromising engineering. With an overall dry weight of less than 145kg, the 701 Supermoto is a force to be reckoned with, capable of propelling riders from one corner to the next with unbridled enthusiasm.
