Husqvarna 701

KTM sibling Husqvarna has updated its 701 Enduro and Supermoto models ready for the 2026 season. The new bikes are recipients of the usual upgrades: more power and better kit. The single-cylinder LC4 engine has been updated to Euro 5+ spec, and has gained an extra 5hp (up to 78hp) in the process.

A new 4.2in TFT screen provides all the usual bike info, as well as indication of which ride mode is activated – Rally mode has a new Dynamic Slip Adjust ability, which automatically adjusts the permitted rear wheel slip based on the available traction in any given situation. Other updated spec includes a new Supermoto+ ABS setting which allows a limited amount of rear wheel slide angle when cornering, Sport ABS which allows higher brake pressure when the bike is lent over before the ABS is activated, and the ability to deactivate the ABS completely for off-road use. The 701 Enduro and Supermoto both have an SRP of £10,499.
