Husqvarna 701 Supermoto 2015

The 701 Supermoto is the right vehicle for asphalt surfers who regard a motorbike as a toy without wanting to forego suitability for everyday use. The ABS also meets sporting demands, can be switched off or operated in Supermoto mode using a "dongle" from the accessories. The ride-by-wire offers three different riding modes to choose from, which can also only be changed while riding with an extra. This brings us to the downer in the Austro-Swedish melange: we would have liked to see some extras in the standard equipment. One of these is the set of stickers for the many white surfaces on the fairing.

elegant design

strong brakes

excellently tuned engine

good sound

suitable for everyday use

Some useful extras at extra cost

Honda CRF450R 2017

Honda has hit the jackpot with the new 2021 CRF450R. Through constant further development, we find a true handling monster with the 2021 model year. Comparisons with the 250 in terms of handling cannot be dismissed out of hand. Thanks to electronic aids, the power delivery is no longer as demanding as on 450s.

Very good handling characteristics

equipped with numerous electronic features

chassis perfectly tuned for the hobby pilot

finally hydraulic clutch

Chassis a little too soft for really fast riders in the basic setting

routing of hydraulic hose coupling
