That exhaust is why this bike is legal in numerous countries, that isn't KTM causing this problem, it is government.

@TheAhdoodoo 3 года назад

The reason the muffler is so big and heavy is because they integrated a catalytic converter with the muffler starting with euro 4 emissions. That’s also why it gets so hot. Aftermarket muffler is a must on almost every new bike in my opinion though.

@Chris-hj3lc 3 года назад

Agree with Curtis Xavier. There are necessary mods that must be immediately placed on this bike. Exhaust is one of those. KTM was forced to do so to make it a 50 state bike regarding emissions. If you can’t afford the mods, then stick with the POS Honda XR650 ha ha!

@Duken4evr29 Год назад

It is convenient that the CAT is integrated into the muffler instead of in the header somewhere, as it is simple to get rid of it. 😆

@JohannesDalen 2 года назад

The 701 is a fantastic bike, and I’m very happy with mine. It does however, like you point out, need some aftermarket goodies to perform to its potential, but it’s the same with all bikes 🙂

@osmose76 Год назад

Thank you very much for what seems to be a pretty honest video as per why those recent bikes can also sometimes be disappointing and not up to our expectations

@kuhndj67 3 года назад

Papar air filters outperform foam... at filtration. That advantage only increases as service intervals lengthen. I’d not use a foam filter on a bike with 6000 mile service intervals and a long expected engine life. Foam flows better for increased power... but I just use it on track bikes not bikes that will see a lot of miles. For dirt bikes that will see frequent engine rebuilds foam makes sense... but the 701 is supposed to have a longer time between rebuilds and the poor filtration efficiency of foam could become an issue.

@neggo4290 3 года назад

yeah dude too bad husqvarna doesnt give the rights to other company to make stuff for their bikes, for example if you want to change a plastic kit the only one available is the OEM and it costs like a lot, there are some fixes out there but not for all the problems, the engine has got some weaknesses that cant be fixed for example

@klauspeters7434 3 года назад

I have an answer to all your questions: Because there is an aftermarket for accessories 🤣

@Carlos-bp1vp 3 года назад

The exhaust part may be fixed with a richer air to fuel ratio. My 800GS ran at the "optimal" 14.7:1 for emissions purposes. I put in an AFXIED to adjust AFR to around 14.1 so it would not stall as easily, but a side benefit is that it runs cooler as well.

@Dr.Hosamtalhami 3 года назад

Thanks for the great informative video! Where did you get the windshield?

@jamesfairmind2247 Год назад

Actually the massive exhaust can does make sense. KTM have to put a CAT somewhere and so they put it in a can that they know everyone will discard on day one. If they put it under the engine like the T7 it is much more difficult to get rid o and makes the bike heavier than i needs to be. That said, it is dangerously hot and they should fit with a heat guard even if just to protect the owner long enough until it is replaced.

Hey bro! The steel screws of your windshield helped to an unexpexted catastrophic failure. Usually they are made of plastic/nylon ones, its kinda mechanical fuse. The windscreen work as a lever that increase the forces to broke it and everything attached to it, and, thats why nylon screws should came into action. Have a look on some oem windshield, specially Japanese ones.

Good point mate definently in need of some quality accessories I have a 690R and a 790R I'm selling the 790 in favour of the smaller more fun machine anyway I was making a tail tidy out of all the excessive plastic number plate holder on the 690 R and noticed that the tail peice is in many different sections and if you did happen to flip the bike or have it fall back on the tail for some reason it would be like pushing a self destruct button

@JIMHusky 3 года назад

I changed the handguards the exhaust pipe and a few things more on mine

@LimitEdit 3 года назад

The exhaust pipe is big, heavy and hot but not that bad at all. Most of the aftermarket Exhaust bring less power, then the stock one. This is due to the lack of volume and if its one thing that emissions restricted 1 cylinder love is volume in the pipe. Totally agree with you the over complicated assembly of some things and the lack of protection

@franzneubauer890 3 года назад

In Europe you need a big exhaust Volume for noise regulation.

LED should be the stock solution. 2, You cant switch of the front ABS. 3, The side stand sensor can easily get you in trouble, when you cant start the bike becouse of it in the middle of nowhere. Other than that and your list, its a perfect bike for dual sport riding.

Paper filters are better at filtering dust but can't get wet. Foam filters don't filter out as fine of particles but are better suited for the environments like mud and water. If you dunk your bike in a stream you can just squeeze the water out of a foam filter. Paper filters you are pretty much screwed till it dries.

@RWWRENTAL 3 года назад

yes that is correct. I do a lot of water crossings and of course mud rides and that is why I wish it had a foam filter. I mean I know there is an upgrade, but even most dualsports come with a foam filter. The foam filter saved my bikes a few times when I dumped it in water. thanks for watching!

@Monjar3 3 года назад

@@RWWRENTAL I was surprised when you said it had a paper filter to be honest. My friend has the 690 and I never knew that. I have a 450L and of all the maintenance, I hate cleaning and oiling foam filters the most but I wouldn't ever want a paper filter on an enduro bike. Besides cleaning filters I like working on my bike. I got to swap the piston out for next riding season. I've got about 100 off road hours on. Its probably fine but I dont want to find out its not 30 miles into mountain single track. Valves are still perfectly in spec. Only had to change the ride side exhaust valve shim one size smaller on the first check. It was barely on the tight side.

@RWWRENTAL 3 года назад

@@Monjar3 totally agree I do hate the maint of a filter lol. sometime I just buy premade ones ha ha. I guess there is pro an cons depending on what you ride. it is why I mostly stick to dirt roads now and turn around at water crossings in CO because they get pretty deep here lol.

While your not wrong in anything you pointed out but the Fairing mounts are the biggest let down. All else is normal in my opinion. The fact that we can have a 70hp sub 350lb bike for let's say $12k that i will gladly pay is more than fair for the "Niggles" it has.

@Amarok347 2 года назад

Hey! I am looking for a motorcycle that can handle both normal and off-road tracks (rocks, mud etc.). For now I am thinking of two models, the Husqvarna 701 and the Yamaha Tenere 700. Which one will do better? This will be my first off-road motorcycle. Unless there's something better than these two?

@RWWRENTAL 2 года назад

I always say 3 different models, T7 701enduro/XR650R or KTM500 If mostly doing highways, and only doing county roads and basic trails, T7 will be way more comfortable, also less maintenance. When it comes to the 701, great machine like a giant dirt bike that can actually do tight single, just change the tires for some knobbies if doing mostly 50 50 with some single track in there. 500 is mostly doing trails and single track
