It needs gearing for sure. I remember even in first gear I had to clutch it up. And the bike will go around 130 mph. So you could definitely get away with a 5+ rear sprocket. Then I think it would be better, like you’d expect.
I love your videos man.
So a 15\45 would be nice? is -1 front en +3 at the back? feel like it can have i little more punch..
Mike Brown what is a super enduro ?
Mike Brown got a 690 Enduro, KTM Always builds extreme Bikes :D
Jake TheGardenSnake we love u bros ❤
Did I buy the right bike?
Which one wins? EXC or 701?
Thanks for watching
BLDH You bought the right bike!! Exc ftw
701 poweeer!
701 IS better
701 is beter um my opinion
Exc
2:12 are you trying to pull the clutch??
I was one step away from buying a 500exc but i ve changed my mind in the last second, and i bought a 701 enduro, because i got it brand new with 2000€ less then the ktm, and with the remaining money got chain and sprockets and exhaust, arbox and pc... and i ve made it feel almost like a ktm. The only down side it s the weight. It is 30 km more. BUT, and this is the main reason that i made this choice, i don t have to change the oil every 10 hours of riding, an the piston at 50 hours. This is for somebody who probably has a mechanics team living with him.
Just bought a 701 SM. (2018) with open air box , better can and evo map. Compared to my old XR650R SM it’s flat in the low revs. Will change the front sprocket to a 15T and if that doesn’t wake it up I will go +2 on the rear. Good fun accelerating over 40mph but slow getting to it at the moment.
I own a 701-SM, It is absolutely the most incredible dirt bike for the street, perfect power to weight ratio. Well made,and so much fun to ride!!!
Awesome as allways! Love to see when you test the different bikes and compare!
Oh thank you Master!
Always* älskar dig ändå😘😂👌
Eskil #27 hej Eskil du är bäst
Hej eskil
This was my first time watching your videos. I love the way you edited this video, especially the “1 up, 5 down right” comment 😂
I have subscribed
Ktm is never a mistake
I absolutely love my 701 enduro can't wait to be able to ride again. Had a 701 crash and currently recovery from my broken wrist
I think that exc is better for you ;)
Enduro 15:46
Supermoto 16:42
It does make a big difference. Many people change the gearing on the 690
701 SM and FE501 SM sitting in my garage, even had an FS450 for racing and trackdays until a couple weeks ago when I sold it. rear sprocket on the 701 SM needs to changed (42 to 46), then it's a completely different bike and loads of fun to ride. I keep my FE501 around for the absolute no f*cks given hooligan rides, but you can't ignore the fact that bike will attract loads of unwanted attention while you can cruise around on a 701 and nobody will give you angry looks.
701 is outstanding supermoto! you can do everything on it (tracks days, commuting, wheelies).
if you want the full power of the bike, ecu flash, -1 sprocket, full exhaust and air filter is the solution. best sm so far.
exc's on the other hand are enduro bikes. of course more brutal, but you can't commute with them. riding position is gonna be really uncomortable after a lot of km on it. services cost a lot and there sooner than the 701.
overall. if you want a powerfull track/sunday sm and you can afford the often services you buy and exc, if you can't you buy a 701.
i have never riden an exc but yes, if i could afford one i would prefer it than 701.
Wtf 😂 at 6.00 the dude at the left.. He was my examinator when i got my A1 license 🤯
Xd nice
You should know that those enduro rims are lighter than supermoto. That is one of the reasons why it's easier to wheelie with them
Is that dead-pan sort of humor characteristic for the Dutch? Never noticed it before! Love it! ;-D Like asking the lender of the bike dumb questions just before you take off to scare them into thinking you'll wreck their bike... ;-D
Its Sweden lol
I can’t say why exactly but my favorite Husqvarna was a te449 which belonged to the dealer. He used to race Supermoto and enduro with it and was pretty good, so he had everything setup perfectly for his weight, which happened to be similar to mine.
So I hopped on and fell in love with the bike. Was more fun than my SM510R, which I loved as well.
The old Husqvarnas had such a smooth power delivery it was like butter. My fav Supermoto brand for sure.
absolutely brother , i worket in a HVA Dealership before BMW took over. Personally i find the SM510R feom 2005 the very best modell - 58PS lightweight , good marzocchi / sachs setup and a very raw sm look. lost my license for 4 years and this summer im gonna get it back... very unsure what to buy eithet an old hva used or a 701 and mofify with open box , silencer / commander and shorter gearing ....
Har du testat FE 501 med gatdäck? Kan inte bestämma mig vad som är roligast, om man skiter i kostnaden för skatt, försäkring, service osv, vilken har man roligast på gatan? En gatreggad FE 501 eller en 40kg tyngre 701?
är det kross eller mc du kör? Jag tänkte börja med en 4taktare (aldrig åkt kross), är det en bra idé. Man vill ju inte direkt tröttna. Därför börja med en någorlunda värsting, vad tycker du?

(H)usqvarna
Bro did u just downshift from 2nd to 1st in that corner please say no! 🤔
Husqvarna 701 is best
Have you drived in the thirt gear at the electricbike. There are slow normal and fast. The display is over where the Tank is
Så jävla sköne och innehållsrika, big up till dig för att du är så aktiv nu! Ser fram emot en till bygg-episod :P
Tack man!
Jag var sjukt nära på att lägga in som bloopers/bonus meme på den gången jag testkörde en 390 duke och trollade han som va ansvarig om det fanns anti wheelie på den. va inte tillräckligt cringe.. ;) haha
Vad jag vet om DRZ är att den måste man uppgradera ganska mkt för att den ska gå bra. Den är en av de få jag inte provkört. :P
Kanske värt att spana in ktm 640 eller 660 ? :P
BLDH hahaha hade varit kul o se de ju:p tack för svar, håller mig borta från drz då! Får kolla in 660 o 640 lite :)
So do u wish u bought the 701 instead of 500exc or?
I think your videos are awesome and it’s really cool cos you have driven through Täby a couple of times and I live there AND I have also seen you. You have a really nice bike and yeah hope I see you again! :)
I want a KTM 500 :) Used to have a Yamaha WR450f, real fun bike that did power wheelies in 3rd gear if if was in the right mood and I loved the bottom end torque. But for offroad it was a bit to hard to controll the power after my taste (don`t like to use the clutch :)
I did buy a new 500 EXC F after test drive of a 2 stroke KTM 300 that I found lacking in power, the 500 is a beast but also gentle if you want to :)
-1 on the front sprocket and the 701 SM will waken up just like the enduro.
You riding 15 or 14? I have the Enduro version was thinking about going 14
I have a ktm 450 sxf going to make it into a supermotard now, but i wouls say maybe the aprilia 550 sxv is better then the 701?
Har du några tips på motorcyklar för nybörjare? Det vill säga de som precis fått kortet... Jag vill gärna skaffa en hoj men vet inte vilken. Måste man börja med låg cc? tack
8:33 i think the bike was set to default settings. in (supermoto mode) you can power wheelie in 3rd :D
What is the best enduro or supermoto you would recommend for a beginner?
7:08 The girl is sit down in Husqvarna out fit to a KTM chair XD (Yes iam here in 2021 :D)
Totally unrelated but yet a bike question. Does anyone have experince with the yamaha xt660x. Good city bike? Long rides? The whole deal’io. Being a one sylinder bike and all. Thanks.
With a -1 front sprocket and +3 rear it really wakes up the 701 supermoto. 4th gear wheelies are easy with that gearing even with everything else being stock.
ITS ALL ABOUT THE GEARING!
15 - 45 on the 690, and its flyin! i have one my self :D
Try 20-20 it's even better, 2000 km/h!!!
Vilken gearing brukar du köra på motarden?
that was enjoyable to watch. Tak.
also hi from Australia
The 701 is completely flat in the bottom- and low-end with stock exhaust. With a different exhaust+airbox+remap it's transformed and so much better.
Fuel injection is garbage
You mean just the sproket setup or gears are longer on sm model ? Thanks!
Jag älskar dina videos mannen fortsätt med det du gör
Skovby måste skaffa korvstånd
It is annoying you cannot do wheelies without using a clutch, especially on that powerfull and light bike. It isn't health for an engine. Besides, nice vid.
RossVlogs actually it’s really not, they have transmissions designed for abuse...
Haha very funny, Bjuder på den 😎🤙🏻
Love your videos , so funny as always
The mirrors like: *hell nah get me outta here*
500 exc sm for the win🔥 Great video!
But why? No link.
Won'tRespond why you need a link? Lol
You have to convert them by yourself
bro if you didn´t know they have the same owner so they are almost the same bike (TE/EXC FE/EXC-F TC/SX FC/SX-F TX/XC-W 690/701, but they have some differences between the diffrent bike models so you can basically say they have the same mom and dad but they models are just sibblings
I've put a 15 teeth front sprocket on my 701. Now it feels awesome :)
FrosTiiiEs Did the same thing! Happy with but i'm thinking going 45 at the back. Too much or good idea?
Siwart Steensma well I come from a street riding background so it would be too mich for me. i ride a lot of black forest so speeds are quite high ;)
Slow and heavy the 690 and 701 are imo
Get a 450 put into supermoto trim and get the smiles!
the 701 or the 690 are to have long life engine, but too heavy and not as sharp as a 450
If you want to do miles then get one of these but... if you want to be a hooligan or a racer 450fs will leave these elephants behind.
@@joski9030 lmao no. You can Drive Like a Hooligan too on a 701/690
SE CAZZO SEEEE, 701 CAZZOOOOOO
Traduction: great 701! GREAT!
Lo Sguarnista con la traduzione si perde l’enfasi del “seeee cazzo”😂
Riktigt jävla bra video, såg om den 2 gånger
Just came here to comment with yes.
Just kidding its my optinion for an overall and daily bike
maico 700 = best
Lol
Absolutely but that's a two stroke and is a total different machine or suicide tool
Brc 500 would be better
Hell yeah
yeah
"dude fuck i love"
-BLDH
no FREE Ride coming to the USA- so sad- "NOT"
supermoto is geared stupid tall from the factory, nobody needs a Sumo that goes 130+ I out 15/46 sprockets on it which is what the Enduro uses and with a euro map and pipe its a widow maker and will still hit 105
701 goes 200kmh 😂😂
I think no one is driving that kinda speed with sumos
När hade de testa på dag detta året på gillinge?
701-SUPERMOTO is LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Trust me go out and buy one, if you can find one!! I waited 2-years, worth the wait!! Remoive the EURO-4 (Exhaust and intake) Look out- POWERRRRRRRRRRRRR !!!!!!!!!!
The problem is that if you flip a 701 during a wheelie it will probably burn. One of my friends got one a few months ago, the bike burnt today after a wheelie crash just because of the backward tank. 500 is better😜 701 is too but 0 chances to fail
Motorcycle Songs Well, if you don't do wheelies it is not a problem. Simple as that. Same goes for the 690.
Luca of course it's an awesome bike for normal riding or track riding. And less cost of maintenance
Motorcycle Songs IMO this is the best compromise between a true 450 SM and a commuter/fun bike. I would buy a bike like this 100% cause i do 75km a day and a 450 sm couldn't keep up with that for too long in terms of fuel and maintenance.
Var var detta event för någonstans?
I own the 2016 husqvarna 701 and its a BEAST!!
Have you had any problems with the bike? Is it expensive to maintain?
Would you recommend it?
Min pappa köpte en 2017 701 och han älskar den och ska uppgradera till den nyaste 701 och han tycker att det blir en skönare körning med tanken där bak
Och han köpte 701 motard för då spara han 20,000 kr på däck och fälg det året för det är billigare att köpa enduro fälgar i efter hand
Wait, so all the manufacturers in one place. And you can ride whatever? I’m so jealous
yes.. XD
Im confused! Is 690 better or Worse than the 701?
worse, cuz of the jerkiness.
There is a reason why KTM no longer sell the 690 smcr... xd
BLDH What? When did they stop selling the 690 smc r?
701 IS better cause its More upgraded
MR BITCHFACE 2017
I prefer the 690, its more raw.. Ive driven 701s and it feels like the Torque's gone missing against the 690. When you want to do wheeles midrange torque is the shit..
How do your knees still work?
Is there a version of this husqvarna for 125ccm?
Danny Calin yes
Noone in Sweden will ever buy E-Supermoto, just because it don't do wheelie :D
Testride that 701 on a proper road and you will change your mind ;)
It's got the hooves on road that's a fact...seemed too tall like my 650xl..test drive it.. wow..twice the power half the weight...off road felt like your on a 4x8 sheet of plywood..narrow,tall,long ..I bought a 2018 501fe..I'd beat the brakes off that beast off road..don't get me wrong..on road.. 701..so much more stable and enjoyable that baby brother...701 needs that lead cuz this hairball dirt ahead..?..the nimbleness, grip in the berm,200lb freak doing mass airage?...501. All. Day. Long
how fast does the free ride e go up to
Du kan kanske prova en Husqvarna Svartpilen 701? Det vore nice att se dig testa en sån;)
Wtf ist this Event where you can try the Bikes?! So cool
Had a 701 and sold it.. its a jack of trade master of none. except wheelies.
I thought you wanted a supermoto, not a bus? 😉
You are not popping the clutch good when you pop it the wheel is 10cm in the air but it should be when you pop it almost in balance point pop better try do some wheelies on a 125cc bike than you will leurn real wheelies
You're so funny,i'm subscribing
Cheers from France
appreciate what you have.
if it had the tank in front, id get it with a bigger rear sprocket
the 500 sxc-f has a power to weight ration of .27 whereas teh 701 has a power to weight ratio of .21....
You got the best!!! Husqvarna!!!!
exe is better but the 701 is more worth it if that makes sense!
so yes bought the right bike.put some goldspeeds wheels with an motomaster brakekit on the 500 and it's finished ! XD
This was a good video, i liked it.
:D :D
Provkör lite fler hojar vetja.
Och varför inte skaffa en väghoj? :)
Lets be real here... 701 is the king of sumos
4:24 When you don’t know any languages... hahahaha
I own a 701 and I am very happy 😊
3:51 Är det harley davidson?
Yes u did, Yes u did!
Eh. Idk. Cant understand anyone.
Exc is best.
Andreas Brunskow lol sure?
