Experienced motorcyclists know exactly: 180 hp sounds good, but more than 100 hp has never been necessary for a typical Sunday ride. I don't think I need to recommend the Supermoto R to press riders. In these circles, it has long been considered the fastest motorbike on the market.

The Husqvarna 701 Supermoto is a pure fun bike that is made neither for long tours nor for high speeds. Light, strong, puristic. If the automatic gearshift had also fallen victim to purism - I wouldn't mind.
