The Husqvarna 701 Supermoto Is Getting A Brother And It Wants To Get Dirty
The Husqvarna 701 Supermoto Is Getting A Brother And It Wants To Get Dirty-March 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:14:17

The Husqvarna 701 Supermoto is both a rebadged KTM 690 SMC R and one of the bikes I’m the most excited about this year - and now it’s getting a Enduro twin for those of you who want to take your big thumper fun to the dirt.

Like the 701 Supermoto, it will be powered by a 690 cc, single cylinder SOHC motor which makes 67 horsepower. It will also have ride-by-wire rider selectable fuel maps, and ABS and a ATSC slipper clutch standard.

Suspension-wise, it gets a WP 4CS fork and WP shock, each providing 10.8 inches of travel. It also gets a chromium-molybdenum steel trellis frame and will come with a nicely sized 3.4 gallon fuel tank. Husqvarna has yet to release weight figures, but we assume it will be in the 320 pound range like the Supermoto.

The Husqvarna 701 Enduro will hit European dealers next month, and find its way into American and Canadian dealers in February.

The Bridge Of The HMS Prince Of Wales Is Straight Out Of Star Wars
BAE Systems Maritime rolled out the bridge module of the Royal Navy’s second Queen Elizabeth Class carrier, the HMS Prince Of Wales yesterday, and it looks more like it should be orbiting a planet in the Outer Rim and launching Tie Fighters than sailing the high seas. The 70,000 displacement...

Russian Troops Have Close Call With Missile, Giggles & Cheers Ensue
These onlooking Russian soldiers got much more than they bargained for when this fired off a dud round. It is not clear if the missile’s motor ended up firing at the very last second or if it fell back to the ground, but it’s amazing just how well everyone took...

Watch This Motorcyclist Face A Squirrel With A Death Wish
What is it about small furry things that makes them incapable of understanding when to cross the road? The math should be pretty simple: big loud thing + moving fast = don’t cross the road now. And yet, this squirrel, like so many rodents, picked the only moment when a...
