This is the official press release from Husqvarna. Utilizing its vast knowledge of off-road competition bikes, Husqvarna Motorcycles returns to the street dual-purpose segment with the 701 ENDURO – continuing the brand’s more than 100-year heritage in all motorcycle divisions.
Faithful to the iconic brand’s core values the 701 ENDURO is a machine built from the ground up to lead in terms of power, weight, technology and performance. Combining state-of-the-art equipment with unique bodywork, it offers functional Swedish-inspired design.
Bred from decades of enduro world championship-winning success, the 701 ENDURO, has the ability to master both urban environments and demanding off-road terrain with composure, ensuring impressive levels of versatility.
Featuring class-leading technology, the 690 cc engine has a double spark plug ignition, selectable engine maps and ride-by-wire throttle, which combine to provide a perfectly linear power delivery. With its crisp throttle response, the engine allows riders of all levels to confidently tackle both their next off-road adventure as well as the daily commute aboard the 701 ENDURO.
Reliability, durability and efficiency are guaranteed by high-tech applications such as the active crankcase evacuation and the forced lubrication system, which reduce oil friction and pump losses. The adoption of these innovative solutions brings long service intervals and extremely low fuel consumption.

Made of high-grade chromium-molybdenum steel the 701 ENDURO’s lightweight trellis frame has been developed to offer optimum feedback for both on road and off-road use. Combining a perfect weight distribution with a tight turning circle the trellis frame, harnesses the power of the single-cylinder engine, guaranteeing flawless agility and stability in all kinds of riding conditions.
WP Performance has developed closed-cartridge 4CS forks specifically for the 701 ENDURO, which find their perfect match in the fully-adjustable WP rear shock. For perfect all-terrain riding capabilities both front and rear suspension offer 275 mm of travel.
A super lightweight die-cast aluminum swingarm matches with the self-supporting polyamide rear subframe to further enhance the bike’s astounding power-to-weight ratio. For optimal weight distribution, and long ride peace of mind, a 3.44 US gal fuel tank is integrated into the subframe. A set of anodized CNC machined triple clamps with precisely engineered flex adds to the 701 ENDURO’s extensive list of superior quality components.
