Light Adventure Bike Build - Part 2 - Husqvarna 701 Enduro | Rade Garage Airbox & Fuel tank 

I wish I had 10% of you skills !!! For building a bike as for being the pilot of this bike !

Nice setup with the aux fuel tank. I have a '23 and a couple free mods for anyone who owns a 690 platform bike to consider: The kickstand has a sensor on it to prevent riding off with the stand own. The problem is the sensor is low and vulnerable and if it gets damaged it will disable the bike with no means of trailside repair. It is a fancy 3 wire Hall Effect deal and splicing wires won't work. Remove the kickstand switch from the frame, roll up it's signal wire nice and tidy and tuck it under the seat. Unbolt the magnet from the top of the kickstand. I found the area of the sensor that detects the magnet is small, so I cut down a thin larger magnet to the size of the sensor, duct taped it on there, and then zip tied it in place to make sure it stays on. The 2nd mod is for those who don't ever want TC and ABS on. I got tired of disabling ABS every time I went in the dirt, and even the "off road dongle" leaves front ABS on, which is a problem. The mod is to remove the rear ABS sensor and tuck it under the seat alongside your kickstand sensor. The causes the ABS and TC to stay off. The lights will be on, which they always are anyway as I always disabled them on my bike. Tuning wise, these are crazy lean at part throttle and lower RPM to meet emissions. An O2 sensor delete dongle and the exhaust of choice works wonders. Combining the O2 dongle with a mapped PC6 really unleashes the Kraken 😆 Alas, I hear rumors that the newest Euro 5 ECUs may no longer be fooled by a "spoofed" O2 sensor signal. Apparently the solution is a device that goes between the O2 and the ECU. The PC6 and O2 delete dongle work great on my American spec '23 701.

Me gustan tus videos, buen trabajo 👍🏻

Subbed! I’m thinking of going for the rade garage under seat storage. I don’t need extra fuel capacity but want the foam filters and any weight reduction I can get!

How does the bike ride on the highway? I want to buy this bike but I’d have to ride several hours to go offroad

I had Rade garage Tank , and while I was good, I don't think I'll put one again. I mean if you don't go to Africa, Siberia, Mongolia etc. I don't think you would need one. I used mine like only two times, and both times I could have refueled (but I was lazy) and the bike is very economical in touring mode and most of the countries I've been had fuel pretty often.

Nice, im trading my expediton for my old -21 701 this weekend. It has the aluminium rade tower, but im thinking of going the same route as you and removing the tower to keep it light. Maybe a advspec mini tower on longer rides.

Hey! I have the same bike, best ever bike to me - have you remapped it after the exhaust and in take?

Are you happy with stock suspension or will you be doing something?

What kit did you use for removing SAS and canister?

You don't need to dick around with the pump at all if you look around the pump area under the tank there is provision to put a 640 type fuel petock straight in the tank one hole required

What did you do the fuel tank?

Hmm - you know your way around the bike, that's for sure! Are you a trained bike mechanic? I got the tank fitted, but had to ask the dealer to do it 😥 .. If love to know my way around the bike better - don't have the knowledge or confidence!!!

is 200 plus Kg light ?

Why don’t you just open your eyes a little wider and get a little closer to that 20,000 rpm spinning disk cutter next time? 😠
