2023 701 Enduro - Pros & Cons
Strengths
-
⚡
Strong power output: 2023 Husqvarna 701 Enduro makes 55 kW @ 8000 rpm with 73 Nm @ 6500 rpm of torque - competitive figures for its class.
Considerations
-
📏
Tall seat height: The 910 mm seat height will challenge shorter riders - tiptoeing at low speeds is something to factor into your decision.
-
⚙️
Chain final drive upkeep: Chain final drive needs regular cleaning, lubrication and tension checks to get full life out of the sprockets.
Wear Points & Servicing Notes
Cooling system servicing
The Liquid cooling system on the 701 Enduro needs a coolant change roughly every two years (or per the service schedule) - skipping it lets the coolant turn acidic and corrode the aluminium water passages over time.
Brake disc and pad wear
The Single 300 mm disc, Brembo floating caliper, 2 piston front brake gives strong, progressive stopping power. Disc thickness and pad depth are worth checking at every tyre change, since worn pads can score the disc surface.
Suspension condition on used examples
Up front, the 701 Enduro runs 48mm Fully adjustable WP XPLOR inverted forks and Linkage-assisted fully adjustable WP XPLOR shock at the rear. On a used example, check fork seals for weeping oil and test the rear linkage for play - seals are a relatively cheap fix but useful when negotiating price.
Final drive maintenance
Final drive is by chain - expect to clean and lube it every few hundred kilometres and check tension regularly; a neglected chain wears the sprockets faster than the chain itself.
Frame & chassis check
The frame is Chromium-Molybdenum-Steel trellis frame, powder coated, Subframe self-supporting polymer fuel tank - worth a visual check for corrosion or impact damage around the head-stock and swingarm pivot on any used example, since frame damage is far costlier to fix than any service item.
701 Enduro - Buying & Maintenance Guide
What to check before buying
When inspecting a used 2023 Husqvarna 701 Enduro, start with the basics: check the service book for oil change frequency, inspect the chain and sprockets for wear, and look for oil seepage around the engine casings and rocker covers. A cold start test is invaluable - a well-maintained 701 Enduro should fire up cleanly and settle to a smooth idle within a few seconds.
Oil and filter changes
Regular oil changes are the single most important maintenance task on any 701 Enduro. Stick to the manufacturer's interval - typically every 6,000 km or once a year, whichever comes first. Always use the correct viscosity grade as specified in the owner's manual.
Carburetor upkeep
Keep the carburetors clean and free of deposits. If the 701 Enduro has been stored, strip and clean the carb float bowls before attempting to start it. Pilot jets are the first to block and the last to be checked - always include them in any carb rebuild.
