Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 2020

The Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 is still a true highlight among light, handy motorbikes because of its unrivalled characteristics. Its appearance is unique and the technology under the pretty design is also impressive. The combination of 75 hp from the well-known single-cylinder, paired with a superbly shifting quickshifter, creates an insane amount of joy on the road. However, the engine needs revs and the seating position will not please everyone. The Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 is therefore a motorbike that you have to get completely involved with. If you can do that, a lot of fun is guaranteed.

Compared to the sporty single-cylinder competition from KTM or Husqvarna, which you first have to make suitable for touring with a windshield, larger tank, etc., the Twin offers a smoother ride and thus better long-distance capability, and compared to most two-cylinder competitors, with the exception of KTM's 890 Adventure R, it offers more off-road capability. In any case, the Tenere 700 has become a real enrichment for the touring enduro segment, so it was worth the wait.

playful handling

great engine

clean finish

fully adjustable chassis

low weight

ABS can be switched off

fair price

few electronics for road trips

seat could become uncomfortable on long journeys
