Husqvarna Svartpilen 701
The Husqvarna Svartpilen 701 has a top speed of 175 km/h, produces 74 hp and weighs 157 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
O Husqvarna Svartpilen 701 foi lançado em 2019, com base no sucesso do menor Svartpilen 401 e compartilhando sua plataforma com a KTM 690 Duke, devido ao fato de ambas as marcas estarem sob o Pierer Mobility Group. O nome “Svartpilen” significa “seta preta” em sueco, refletindo a herança escandinava da Husqvarna, e a variante 701 representa o carro-chefe da linha de scramblers Svartpilen com seu maior motor monocilíndrico. É notável por combinar a estética de um scrambler retro-urbano com desempenho moderno, tornando-o uma escolha distinta no segmento monocilíndrico de médio a grande porte.

O que os compradores devem saber
KTM Engine Reliability
The Svartpilen 701 shares its 692cc LC4 single-cylinder engine with KTM, a proven powerplant with a strong reliability track record. Regular oil changes are critical as the high-strung single runs hot and can wear faster with neglected maintenance.
Watch the Valve Clearances
The LC4 engine requires valve clearance checks every 15,000 km — skipping this service is the most common issue found on used examples. Always ask for service history and budget around $300–$500 for this check if it's overdue.
Strong Resale Value
The Svartpilen 701 holds its value well due to limited production numbers and high demand in the scrambler/urban segment. Low-mileage used examples often sell close to new pricing, making it a smart buy new rather than used.

Avaliação do comprador usado
"A flawed but genuinely exciting single that rewards committed riders."
$6,500-$9,500 usedThe Svartpilen 701 is one of those bikes that rewards riders who actually know what they're getting into. Powered by the same KTM 690 Duke engine, it pulls hard from low rpm and sounds genuinely aggressive through a quality aftermarket exhaust. The scrambler-ish styling is legitimately cool rather than costume-party pastiche, and the WP suspension handles mixed surfaces better than you'd expect for a road-biased machine. Just know what you're signing up for. Used examples need careful inspection around the fuel pump and throttle body — early units had gremlins there. The 4.5-litre tank is genuinely painful for touring, and service intervals sneak up fast on hard-ridden examples. Always ask for service history because the trellis frame hides stress points that an untrained eye misses. Inspect the swingarm pivot area specifically. Buy one in good shape and you've got something genuinely special — a single-cylinder that actually pulls its weight at speed without feeling like punishment. Terrible choice for commuting daily. Perfect choice for everything else.
