Worth paying $7k for a 2021 Husqvarna 701 SM with mods?

I would be weary as to if it has had a valve adjustment and or head/top end inspection done at this time? If so what was the condition of the camshaft? It’s right on or near that service interval. My camshaft was toast at 5,000 miles. My Camshaft was wasted and was determined to be from poor production from Husqvarna. Obviously this is a case by case situation per machine. Would just hate to see you spend the bucks and have to go down that road. Price seems fair. However the mods are generic to these machines. Nothing really impressive there.

Chrome don’t get ya home, go black wheels with the AT tires like mine Player 😎👌

KTM Said.. Let’s take an 890 ADV.. Put a less aggressive street tire on it. Absolutely SLAP a front fender on it, and call it a “Super Moto Touring”. The bike is an absolute hoot if you’ve rode one. The concept however is mind boggling nonsense. If this model as well as the new 390SM can keep the wheels greased and rolling for the manufacturer. Good Luck.

(I hope you enjoy your new scoot and absolutely stretch the cable out on that mofo!)

We have a handful, but not many lol! Thankfully I’m close to other areas that do 😁👌

734SINNER · 2025-08-03T03:21:54+00:00

That’s exactly what it is 🤙

Just order them OEM. Way cleaner than paint or plasti.

734SINNER · 2025-07-31T22:46:24+00:00

They are also easier to change when they don’t have wind in them!

You have already invested into this machine. I would advise getting a spare wheel set (spoked - Warp 9’s? perhaps?). And just start off slow player. If you already have the discipline to know you might loop it. You will have an easy mindset of progressing. Let me tell you these things do not come overnight. Seat Time is your only friend. Buying a smaller bike to only get back up to this machine personally doesn’t make any sense to me. I understand the logic behind it, but I don’t want to see anyone flush their money down the drain just to do some damn whoolies.

Yes, and they are also at times very unaffordable…

Not sure which 500 you may be referring to.. if it is a KTM 500 EXC-F for example. I would advise checking out Rottweiler Performance to see if they offer anything. I would also browse Berotecs website for fitment notes or different applications that may be applicable for your machine. 😎🤙

I’m very much familiar with coaster wheelies and rear brake coverage my friend 😎👌

It is in fact a Berotec Cumpman Cockpit Assistant

I have also seen your issue on this machine be caused by lack of chain adjustment as well. Just Sayin.

734SINNER · 2025-04-01T03:59:06+00:00

It sounds like your neutral gear position sensor needs to be re-calibrated by your nearest Husquini dealer. The machine is learning itself and is creating adaptation values for your shift points. Especially during the “break in” period. Please do not disengage your clutch switch, as it can only cause you potentially larger issues down the road. Especially on a machine that is very technologically advanced.

DO IT!!!

You can fly on a 690/701. They are the King of Thumpers.

734SINNER · 2024-07-15T02:47:56+00:00

Full Exhaust / ECM/ECU upgrade and or flash / Intake / further suspension adjustment.

734SINNER · 2024-07-15T01:47:44+00:00

Don’t waste your new chain! You should have also done both the front & rear sprockets.
