701 Supermoto

Engine

Redesigned crankcases reduce drag, which plays a vital role in enabling the single-cylinder engine to create more torque and peak power than the previous generation. Together with an extensive list of new or revised components and updated valve timing, the proven LC4 engine is compliant with the latest emissions standards and retains its linear and controllable power delivery. An added benefit of the latest engine are the service intervals, with oil changes now required at 15,000 km instead of the 10,000 km on the outgoing model.

Frame

The lightweight chromium-molybdenum steel trellis frame is updated to be slightly stiffer, without compromising its renowned handling characteristics. Detailed feedback from the terrain is transferred to the rider thanks to the precisely calculated torsional rigidity and longitudinal flex.

Ride-by-wire throttle

The Keihin electronic fuel injection system features a 50 mm throttle body with no mechanical linkage to the throttle grip. As the rider twists the throttle open or closed, the throttle valve is electronically controlled by the Engine Management System (EMS), which continuously compares engine parameters with sensor data and adjusts accordingly. The end result is a smooth and responsive power delivery.

Electronic rider aids

Using the handlebar-mounted switch cube, riders can take advantage of multiple electronic rider aids to maximise their riding experience. A choice of three ride modes - Street, Sport, and optional Track - can be easily selected based on rider preference or conditions. Track mode is designed for circuits and twisting roads, and incorporates Launch Control, Anti-Wheelie, Motor Slip Regulation, and a Slip Adjuster. To underline the modern build specification of the 701 Supermoto, additional set-up options include Cornering MTC and a choice of four ABS modes, allowing riders to activate the setting that best suits their riding style.
