2017 Husqvarna 701 Supermoto

2017 Husqvarna 701 Supermoto sat at the top of the brand's road-legal supermoto range, built around a single-cylinder engine that punches well above its class. This is a bike for riders who want a tight, flickable chassis paired with genuine midrange shove, the kind of setup that makes tight, technical roads and back-and-forth transitions feel effortless rather than like work. It's a physical, engaged riding experience: light on its feet, direct in its steering, and happiest when you're actually working the throttle and brakes rather than cruising. Long highway stretches aren't the point here, and owners tend to know that going in.

The 2017 model carried over without significant mechanical changes from the prior year, buyers comparing it to a 2016 example should focus on mileage, service history, and condition rather than spec differences. The 2017 Husqvarna 701 Supermoto attracts experienced riders coming from smaller supermotos or dirt-oriented backgrounds who want one bike that handles commuting, canyon carving, and the occasional track day without compromise. Collector interest remains low, so this is a buy-to-ride proposition rather than a speculative purchase.
