Recieved a swift response from Supermofools and this was the reply........... Thank you for your feedback! This helps us create better products. The white one is tucked away since most people liked the version with only the LED bar. To satisfy everyone the option to have the bottom 2 LEDS on as well we went for a version where you can still easily change it if you like it the other way around better.
Thanks for the info. I bought a 2021 sm701, with almost no lights or super bright. Especially at night while driving thru streets with no lights I was blinding upcoming traffic. Now found the white wire and I have a less overkill of light. Still very bright but doable. 👌
Thanks for the video mate, ive been patiently waiting for an Led upgrade for my 19' 701, ill be honest, I prefer it without the day running light! That bar at the bottom is nice on its own. Then again I never ride at night 🤣
Glad you got everything working despite a little more work than you'd expect... However they do look absolutely stonkin' and they're not expensive. I do wonder what the light is like in the dark.
From the photos on their site you can see that they run them without low beam… no good for normal riders like us who use our bikes at night from time to time! Is it notably better/brighter than standard? It does look cool. Great vid…. I just ordered a 701 and will be getting an LED upgrade so thanks.
Thanks. I appreciate it. Yes it’s much brighter although I think I may have some messing around adjusting the beam so it won’t dazzle on coming traffic. I’m not impressed with the fact it’s advertised as having low beam but nothing said about having to re work it. I did reply to them Saying they need to put a disclaimer on the site stating this.
I was wondering how long it would take you to find the wire. I had the same problem with the 690 light. I think they just have the DRL on as a low beam because it looks cool.
I did think that initially but then it dawned on me that that light isn’t going to throw out much of a beam at night. Hence why I looked into it further.
I bought the orange bar light for my 690..(u can see in my profile pic) and I was expecting something a lil better but it is def 1000% better than the stock light. That thing was terrible at night! I just ride with orange bar lit during day and high beam at night
@@Robbiemoto did that low beam light streets up pretty good? I have mine pointed sorta low so that I am not blinding cars so sacrificing light distance
Ok, I believe I know where the confusion is here. The reason I think the white wire is disconnected is so you have the option of running the low beam with only the U shaped light (white disconnected) or U and the two bottom led’s (white connected)and all the lights be ON on high beams mode.
Thanks. Working in the land of automotive I’ve seen similar things before so thought I’d have a look a little deeper. Pretty crap though if that was a mistake.
Hi. There are several things you could do. One is email and complain as they’re not advertising that fact of having to rework the light. I had a few random terminals luckily enough and one of them was the correct one. I twisted the copper strands so the wire was straight and used some terminal pliers to press it on. Just for added measure I used the heat shrink but that’s a little over board really. I just wanted to make sure it stayed on. You could cut the wire from your original light and solder it on. But I’d recommend buying a small kit that includes terminals and terminal pliers. The one I had is a few years old but I don’t believe it was very expensive. If you still don’t fancy doing that then maybe look for an electrical repair shop that may be able to do it for you. Hope you get sorted soon.
@@jonathanvanhee5335 No problem. Happy to help. It was ok. Brighter than standard for sure. If I were you I’d shop around for this light and not buy from where I got it. I wasn’t impressed with their attitude regarding having to rework the light for high and low beam to work. Plus you’d get it cheaper as it’s not exclusive to them. Just my little old opinion 😁
Do they have quality control in china!? 😂 nice looking headlight. Shame you had an issue with it! At least your sorted. Is it much brighter than OEM on low beam?
Apparently this is how the headlight is supposed to be. I pinned Supermofools reply in the comments. I also replied back that they don’t state that on the website. It states in comes with high and low beam and says nothing about having to rework the light to get low beam. Pretty crap really. Yes it’s brighter. Although I feel I may have trouble setting the beam so it doesn’t dazzle traffic.
@@Robbiemoto i haven’t ever taken my head light apart yet but i think theres a screw underneath ive read before? Join the Husqvarna 701 group on Facebook mate. Someone will tell you for sure.
@@oliverjamesbeal I’m on a couple of groups mate. And yes there is a screw and a slider to move the light up or down. I have it set as low as possible but still have my doubts. I’m gonna call into my local KTM dealer, they’re a great crew and ask them to check it on there machine when they do MOT’s
Yep you’re right. Also shows with main beam on. But the description says low and high beam and nothing about having to rework the wiring to make low beam work. A little misleading. If they’d have stated this clearly then no big deal. Or even if the light had an instruction note inside the box declaring this but nothing is said. This has caught quite a few 701 and 690 owners out.
True ,think that it's daytime thing and they think the smiley light looks cooler. Sure they're Dutch.. No offence to Dutch people as I don't do much night driving and thought it looked cool ,the low beam you resurrected with the white wire kinda takes away from the Smiley light lol. Think it's form over function with SMF.?.
Oh I agree. I think it looks cool with just the bar lit up. If the bike had an old style light switch where you could manually turn on low beam then that would work out just right. And then they could have the white wire fitted. After I emailed them they replied with the above pinned comment. After I pointed out that the description was misleading I never got a reply back and the haven’t altered it either. Being a stubborn old twat as I am I won’t buy from them again 😄
@@Robbiemoto Yeah ,I emailed with tight fitting issues and asked if I should cut zip ties on the loom too make easier.Mmm no response over 2 months ago. There made in China and can get this unit for 40 quid ,google the image. Nuffi said.
A few people who have bought one also said they are crap at replying. I think I may have got lucky as I have to say they replied quite quickly to me. I’ve no doubt looking at the quality and the way it’s put together it’s a generic Chinese part reboxed for them.

@@alyusb95 Hi. It was from Supermofools. It works ok but due to the misinformation about the light I would not recommend.
I actually agree with them haha! The singular daylight running light is nicer without the low beam.
Thanks for the info. I bought a 2021 sm701, with almost no lights or super bright. Especially at night while driving thru streets with no lights I was blinding upcoming traffic. Now found the white wire and I have a less overkill of light. Still very bright but doable. 👌
I would have never guessed to look in there. Thanks for helping figure this out
No worries mate. My pleasure.

God job Rob.. well spotted on the wire 👍
Cheers pal.
super merci beaucoup à toi pour cette amélioration
Merci. vous êtes le bienvenu

It was pretty good in the dark. Much better than standard.
@@Robbiemoto Oh nice! I'd upgrade just for the looks alone but the added light volume is a great bonus
Thanks a lot for this usefull review
My pleasure.
You should go for the cyclops one. That’s the one I used and it’s amazing
I did take a look but liked the look of these types. I looked at 3 different types. These, Acerbis and Mach-5 I think they were called.

I agree the light output is better than stock. Riding with high beam on isn’t an option. I don’t want to be blinding some one else on the road.

This is a Chinese unit straight from AliExpress, SMF have just paid them a couple of $ for a different box. How did you find the light on the road?
I believe that too. It wasn’t too bad. Better than the stock light.
Well done Robbie a lot of people wouldn't of picked up on that!. How you getting on with the Husky?
Mark
Thanks. Working in the land of automotive I’ve seen similar things before so thought I’d have a look a little deeper. Pretty crap though if that was a mistake.

Hi, robbiemoto!
Im am looking to get this light because it looks nice.
The way you fixed the light, does the low beam blind oncomming traffic or not?
Hi.
No it didn’t but the beam was a little high even with the light on the lowest mounting setting.
@@Robbiemoto tnx, for the fast reply
Just one more question: is the visibility good? Because is often ride in the dark so its pretty important to me?
@@jonathanvanhee5335 No problem. Happy to help.
It was ok. Brighter than standard for sure. If I were you I’d shop around for this light and not buy from where I got it.

@@Robbiemoto thank you again, you helped me a lot because of this, i will definitely look around for this product😁
Hii the turning signals in front where can i get them?
Hi. The turn signals are a standard fit to UK bikes.

Il filo bianco , che non era collegato, dove lo ha messo nel connettore , nel video non riesco a vedere la posizione
I can't recall exactly where it goes right now. I just followed the wires on the plug on the original light.
are the Husky and KTM the same part #? Tx
Hi. No the headlights are different. As Is the bodywork but apart from that I believe the rest of the bike is the same as the 690.
@@Robbiemoto Thanks much! i'll reach out to MFO and have that convo
I bought one for the 701sm ,same thing .
On their website it shows the light with DRL on only.
Yep you’re right. Also shows with main beam on. But the description says low and high beam and nothing about having to rework the wiring to make low beam work. A little misleading.

What’s your longest wheelie and your highest jump? I’m at like 6 seconds and 36 inches. 🤣🔥
Never measured it and haven’t jumped it.
We want proof 😂
Exactly the same problem with the one I had. The quality of these is shocking.
I seem to be hearing this quite a lot since I posted the video.
Smf sucks, they buy it on aliexpress for cheap, change it a bit and sell it for way to much 😂
After checking the quality of it I’d agree.
Super cool. Checkout my USB socket upgrade video for the 701. Also not sponsored or making money. Just think you might like it.
Thanks. I’ll take a look.
