I owned a 2018 Vitpilen 701 for a while and absolutely loved it. Definitely a manic, wild ride but I think that's just the nature of a featherweight big single with 75bhp. I'm honestly a little disappointed that they went for a more sedate sounding ride but I bet this one will be far more successful than the 701 models were. In the end I'm glad I went with the 765 RS instead.

Couldn’t get comfortable with my Vitpilen 701 traded it for a Tuono 660 factory which is much better for me and I can see why you went for a 765 which is another good choice.

After watching the Svartpilen 701 review from MCN a few years ago. I went and bought one which I still have. Neevesy rated it as one of of top 5 fun bikes at the time and he was 100% correct. Unfortunately I don't think this new Svart has the same edge as the 701s. In my opinion Husqvarna played too safe on the design. I really hope they release the Nuda 900 and hopefully they will be a bit bolder on the design.
@mikecomikechannel
@mikecomikechannel 21 день назад
Small correction. Svartpilen 701 originally had a 12 l tank, but it was problematic and there was a recall action on it. It has been replaced by a smaller tank, a 9 litre, which has a thicker wall. Well, I ran out of gas a few times on the circuit and still didn't fill up the 9 litres. I think 8.5 max. I normally fill up around 7 litres on the road in traffic. Very sad.

I have the 701 and really enjoy the bike and it is a good bike. I was hoping that the 801 would look similar to the 701 but maybe a V twin or something else. The 701 looks like art to me and it is a infusion and synthesis of pass, present and future in one bike. This bike look ordinary but I will check it out when it arrives at the dealer in the U. S. Thanks

If you want to compare it to the 790, then mention the differences. Built in Austria, better spec 990 suspension, better tech, better dash. Those things cost, especially the Austria assembly. If we are talking EU, then the 801 also has the 105hp engine, not the 95hp L engine.

Neevesy, the problem with using the 890 and 890 R reviews as evidence KTM is turning the corner is that the bikes haven't had enough miles ridden on them. The camshafts are wearing prematurely and insidiously. Sadly, it won't be long until you start hearing more about continued LC8c premature wear and outright failures.

@johnDukemaster 21 день назад
Good question! There are so many keyboard warriors, so I digged a bit on the issue. And as far as I can see, there's about 30-35 bikes worldwide that had camshaft problems. That is not much. And now I know someone will comment that "wait till more bikes reaches higher miles, then you'll see" The coolant problem is an easy fix. It's the hoseclamp at the engine that needs tighten up a bit. Oil leeks is a new gasket. All of these issues are carried out on warranty. And the camshafts? As far as I can tell, even bikes beyond warranty time is fixed by KTM. (if they have the service done at the dealer) For you who does the service themselfes, remember to clean the oil-jet/nozzle on the right -hand side of the head. Don't listen to the fearmongers, buy one and be happy!

I’ve owned 2 LC8 engined bikes. The original super Moto 950 and the 990 SMT and never had any issues despite thinking it would grenade at the slightest opportunity. Did several long tours, never let me down. I wonder if that’s down to oil changes and oil choice ? The 990 would burn its oil, so I used a 10/60 synthetic which didn’t smell burned.

Funny that you mention the reliability but point to 890 dukes.. You should have compared it to the 790 dukes and the wonderful camshafts that that get erased like a rubber at 15k km... It's dishonest and puts the MCN in the bad light as well.
@TheLightningII
@TheLightningII 22 дня назад
That issue is present in all LC8c engines, 790 or 890. According to several dealers the 2023+ models have had the cam material/hardening process revised to prevent this issue, but no one can confirm that until people start checking the cams either when the valve cover gasket starts leaking or they reach the valve check/adjustment interval at 30,00km.

@TheLightningII
@TheLightningII 22 дня назад
@@jeremieyirmeyahu3468 No one outside of KTM actually knows the root cause but my best guess is that it has nothing to do with oil or contamination but instead it's the same as the issue that plagued some BMW R1200GS models; The DLC on the cam followers breaks away from the follower surface too easily and that starts the wear of the cam. That combined with improper heat treatment on some cam lobes leads to extremely premature wear.

Buyer Beware. I have owned a new Svartpilen 401 for almost two years now. I have spend the past six months waiting for a replacement for a defective radiator fan. My efforts to reach out to KTM, including corporate, did not help. Not even a response, explanation, apology, or effort to expedite the part. I have waited previously for a month for an oil filter to become available. I'm going on 10 months to a year waiting for other less critical parts. I was eagerly wanting to place an order for the new 801. Now I'll be afraid to take the bike more than 30 minutes from home when and if it's finally repaired. When I did research on the 401 none of the reviewers mentioned the reliability and parts availability problems. I wish I had been warned. I think this is a systemic problem at KTM that they have somehow kept relatively quiet and instead flooded social media with positive videos about new bikes.

@@neevesybikes It's literally the same as the 790. Same frame, despite the claim otherwise. They only claim it's a different frame because it has different mounting points for the body work. Same swingarm just slightly higher in the rear while unloaded. So the 801 actually has a slightly more aggressive steering head angle than the 790(not that it should make any real difference with a rider onboard). The only thing different chassis wise from the 790 or 990 is the lower spring rates.
