The Husqvarna 701 Enduro for 2026 delivers the ultimate blend of lightweight agility and off-road prowess.

Bold, functional styling—channeling Husqvarna’s Scandinavian roots—enhances its purposeful presence and ready-for-anything attitude. husqvarna-motorcycles.com
Under the skin lies the tried-and-tested 692.7 cc SOHC single-cylinder engine, now refined to produce a robust 58.1 kW (79 PS) and 73 Nm of torque, optimised for dependable throttle response and energy efficiency in off-road conditions. husqvarna-motorcycles.com The fuel system employs a Keihin EFI with ride-by-wire, including twin ignition for optimal combustion. husqvarna-motorcycles.com A hydraulically operated PASC slipper clutch provides smooth deceleration control and trail-helping performance. husqvarna-motorcycles.com
The transmission is a precise 6-speed gearbox, delivering engine power seamlessly to a 520 X-Ring chain for rugged final drive reliability. Primary and secondary gear ratios (36:79 and 15:46 respectively) provide harmonious power delivery across terrain. husqvarna-motorcycles.com
Built on a chromoly-steel trellis frame, the chassis balances sturdy stability with lightness, engineered to thrive over rough tracks while preserving agility for tight maneuvers. The suspension suite is pure off-road excellence: a WP XPLOR USD front fork (Ø 48 mm) delivering 265 mm of travel, paired with a WP XPLOR rear shock linked via the Pro-Lever linkage for 250 mm of compliant suspension. Ground clearance sits at an impressive 265 mm, preparing you for big hits and technical terrain.
Braking duties are handled by a Brembo twin-piston floating caliper with a 300 mm front disc and a single-piston Brembo rear caliper on a 240 mm disc, both equipped with switchable Bosch ABS offering both road and off-road modes—including fully disengaged for bare-knuckle trail work.
Wheel setup proves its off-road intent: spoked aluminium-rim wheels — 21″ front, 18″ rear — wearing 90/90-21 and 140/80-18 tyres, built for rocky terrain and loose surfaces.
Ergonomically, the bike offers a seat height of 935 mm, giving commanding ground presence and control in varied terrain. The wheelbase measures 1506 mm, while the steering angle (rake) sits at 62.3°, tuned for stability on fast and technical trails. Fuel capacity is generous at 13.3 L, and the weight—152 kg (without fuel)—keeps the bike responsive yet planted.
Modern electronics are front and centre with a 4.2″ TFT dashboard featuring an anti-glare bonding and a handy USB-C charging port positioned below, keeping navigation and communication tools powered on the trail.
