Husqvarna Motorcycles Australia has released a video proving the long distance capabilities of its 701 Enduro LR.
The LR, suitably standing for Long Range, stands out from the 701 line-up with its hefty 25-litre fuel tank (+12L compared to standard).
For 2020, the 701 gains new graphics and standard equipment upgrades, with features like new switchable rider modes, Bosch cornering ABS, and lean-angle sensitive traction control.
The steel trellis frame has also been tweaked, and a new lightweight aluminium swingarm is featured.
“The Husqvarna Motorcycles 701 Enduro LR has recently been launched with a strong marketing message tailored specifically to suit Australian riders,” said Husqvarna in a press release.
“However, what is a marketing slogan other than just words?
“We decided to put this message to the test and sent two riders on a four-day long range adventure to experience first-hand how the 701 Enduro LR stands up in Australian conditions.”
Spencer has a keen eye for hard news, and does some of his best living on deadline day. He loves more than anything to travel on his motorcycle, and is adamant that Melbourne Bitter is a world-class lager. He also knows how to operate the big computery thing in the office. By night, Spencer plays guitar with Melbourne punk outfit LOUTS.
