Husqvarna Vitpilen 701
The Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 has a top speed of 175 km/h, produces 74 hp and weighs 157 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
Husqvarna Vitpilen 701, Husqvarna'nın KTM Group mülkiyeti altındaki yeniden canlanmasının bir parçası olarak EICMA 2014'te bir konsept tanıtımının ardından 2018'de üretim biçiminde tanıtıldı. Platformunu aynı 693cc tek silindirli motoru kullanan KTM 690 Duke ile paylaşıyor, ancak Husqvarna'nın İsveç mirasından esinlenen minimalist, neo-retro bir 'White Arrow' tasarımına sarılmış. Modern, yüksek performanslı tek silindirli bir platforma cafe racer estetiği getirmesi dikkat çekiyor ve 2021 civarında Euro 5 uyumlu motor revizyonu da dahil olmak üzere güncellemeler aldı.

KTM 690 DNA
The Vitpilen 701 shares its LC4 690cc single-cylinder engine with KTM, meaning parts are widely available and mechanics familiar with KTM bikes can easily service it. This shared platform generally supports long-term reliability when maintained properly.
Watch the Cam Chain
The LC4 engine is known for cam chain tensioner wear, which can produce a rattling noise on cold starts — inspect service records carefully before buying used. Early attention to this issue prevents much costlier engine damage down the road.
Strong Resale Value
The Vitpilen 701's distinctive Swedish café racer styling and limited production numbers help it hold resale value better than many competitors in its class. Low mileage examples in good condition are consistently sought after on the used market.

Kullanılmış Alıcı İncelemesi
"A head-turning urban weapon that punishes neglect and highway abuse equally."
$5,500-$8,500 usedThe Vitpilen 701 is genuinely one of the coolest-looking bikes you can buy used under six grand, and the LC4 single thumps with real character. That 692cc engine pulls hard from low revs and sounds properly agricultural in the best possible way. But go in eyes open — these aren't exactly pampered machines. Check the throttle body carefully, inspect for oil weeps around the head, and always ask for service records because the LC4 needs its valve clearances checked religiously. Day-to-day riding is surprisingly practical. The clip-ons look aggressive but the riding position is manageable for most people. Where it falls apart is anything over 70mph for extended periods — the single-cylinder vibration gets tiresome fast, and that small tank will have you stopping every 120 miles. The WP suspension is decent but not plush. Buy one that's been dealer-serviced and hasn't been dropped. Cosmetic damage on these is expensive to fix because those bodywork panels aren't cheap. Worth every cent for the right rider.
