Built around Husqvarna's prototype - concept model motorcycle platform, the 2014 Husqvarna 701 utilizes a 690 cc (42.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 75 HP (54.7 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 108.7 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
The 8.5-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
