Hi
I have a 2016 Husky 701 for sale that I bought of a forum member when it was 1 year old and had 7000 km on it.
These are amazing bikes, it is fun, it treats me well.
Freshly serviced now on 32k, valve clearances done. Front neck bearings and wheel bearing feel good.
Front tire TKC80 about 4k on it, still looks close to new. I bought this bike on 7k with a fairly used front TKC80 and rode that to 28k.
Rear tyre a Mitas E07 that have done 22k and some life left, but looking very used. New owner probably have something specific here in mind.
Still on the original factory fit battery, does not always sound very strong, I will replace.
DID gold look x ring and pbr sprockets done at 23k, still looking very good. The tension looks tight in the pics, but it is parked in gear.
Front brake pads replaced also 4k ago along with the front tyre.
Original pipe on it. It has an aftermarket re usable ait filter, that twin tower blue ones. Got that from Eddy2r.
It has some proper hand guards, originals available.
Got nice aftermarket footpegs on, works well. Original available.
It has some hyde engine covers.
Chain guard and rear pegs not mounted, but available
I fitted a Hyde screen from a 950 se, after I did some trimming. Helps with that long boring hauls. Unfortunately I drilled through the front headlight surround, but I never had any intention of taking it off again.
Overall I think it is good, some scratches here or there but nothing broken, I have never taken a serious tumble with this bike.
It is on its second set of original mirrors, somehow they get loose within the plastic enclosure and then they rattle, it is very annoying. One is doing this again, it is taped up with electrical tape and it still works fine.
The one niggle I see is looks like the left handlebar end insert is seized, will probably need a bit of cleverness to get it out.
The only issue I have ever had was the auxiliary circuit relay failed, that controls you lights, fan etc. I replaced that with one from a auto parts store about 2 years ago, its been fine. That was a whole R64.
I had a lowering link in it for about 6 months, and cut the side stand shorter. I took the link out again, if the shorter side stand bugs the new owner I am sure it can be easily fixed.
I am thinking towards a 450 ish off raod or 2 stroke, not exactly sure. I would prefer to sell this and not swop for anything, so I have freedom to choose.
Services done by Eddy2r to around 15k, and then all by myself, last one now was done by a reputable guy. Includes the valve clearances, and they were not out by much.
I did drain the tank on 20k, and checked slash cleaned the strainer and tank plus inline filter, it was all very clean.
I am thinking R80k, and yes I do the battery.
Papers in order, license in order, spare key available.
I am Stellenberg area, WC
Please PM me, and I will engage.
