I like the look of the 701, that was also the bike that brought me to your channel. (I stayed because of the good content) But the sound of the Mt07, like the one of mrbrapz, ooooooh Amazing! I can’t choose between one of the other😂. but like you said, for commuting and longer rides the Mt07 is best, thats why I should pick her over the 701.
Literally just got my MT07 in November couldn't make up my mind between the 07 or 09 and your old vids made my mind up for me lol. Glad to see you back on the 07 it defo is a fun bike.
To me the MT07 fills the role of a super moto to a certain extent, but it is more comfortable to ride longer distances. I'm really enjoying it right now.
@@gringostyl I've always wanted to try a 690 SMC R or 701 supermoto but the price is hard to justify for me considering the amount of badass street bikes you can get for the same amount of money lol.
As a 701 fanboy, the MT-07 is better. It's cheaper, more fun, great for wheelies, sounds mental and looks like a beast. The 701 has it all too until you try taking it on a motorway 😂😂
@@gringostyl idk about that I daily my 690 SMCR! Its my main transportation for most of the year It does highway speeds easily it's not even working 6th gear at 70 mph
I own a 690 smcr and I’ve ridden loads of mt07’s and chose a gen 1 street triple over the mt but always said if I wanted a daily commuter it would be an mt07 hands down there just a good all rounder
The perfect MT-07 to buy is the mid-life crisis one. It's the dude who bought the bike trying to recapture the glory of his lost youth, scares the crap outta himself on the first or second ride and the wife demands he sell the thing. That's the bike you want. It's low miles, perfect condition, and priced to sell ... if he ever wants to get laid again. That's the one I'm looking for.
My brother and I are currently purchasing our first street bikes. I’ve got the 2023 MT07 in Matte Raven Black and my bro has the 2023 Husqy 701 supermoto!
@@gringostyl Cheers brother, thanks for the reply! We've been talking about riding together since the 90's. We're in our early 40's now and we're done waiting. I hope to record a lot of our experience learning to ride here on Vancouver Island BC Canada and will share it on TH-cam! Stay safe TARZAN! Thanks for all the awesome content!
@@islerenner 40 years young your good to go! Enjoy the bikelife and keep practicing and improving always, read twist of the wrist 2 and total control you will take so much from them books and completely change your riding
not been on the duke 690, might have a bit more punch if its a single cylinder can't remember if it is or not, but if it is I would also assume that the mt07 is faster mid range / top speed being a parallel twin this video was about the 701 or SMCR 690
i got 690 smc older one so no abs traction control anti wheelie blipper quickshifter nonsense . have ridden mates mto9 and its crazy and felt really uncomfortable to me from a supermoto postion ,is the 07 even smaller ? . i not that tall only 5 10 but puts me off them being low seat height .maybe just too used to dirtbikes and motos ........
The mt07 is slightly lower I think or it just feels like it is cause the seat is narrower at front, mt09 seat is wider, you would get used to the 07 quick, the 09 is more of a sport bike feel, the 07 just feels like a comfy fat dirt bike haha
Hey Tarzan, I have a problem. A Discord problem, I am in your Discord with an account that doesn’t work for some reason. So I’m trying to join you again but your url doesn’t work anymore
Does Abs actually affect wheelies? I ride a Xmax 125 but Abs kicks in when the bike feels that the brake is going to lock up, you're not ever really slamming the brake anyway tho? Maybe I'm dumb or theres something I'm not getting but if that is the case I'll definitely disable it whenever I get a chance
Watch gixxer brah flip the s1000r, that will answer your question 👊 But yes, there is a chance of abs interfering 100% and it should be off, some bikes turn the abs off when in a wheelie aswell and won’t turn back on till you switch bike on and off, but if your going to be wheelying just have it off
Yeh man it’s my favourite, just bought one out here in Brasil 💯🇧🇷 check the latest content finally getting sorted out here will get the mad Brasil content soon…
I would personally for how I ride, but if I didn’t like wheelies so much and wanted a casual street fighter with more power and less effort to ride I would take a 09 💯 it all depends on riding goals
@TARZAN MotoVlogs the bike is great when it works. It’s just the various electrical issues, the fact all the electronics are totally locked so faults can only be read and resolved by KTM dealers at extortionate rates and the cost of servicing them. I love the bike but I’ll never get another
I’ve got an mt 07 rn and want to get into supermotos but 450s just too heavy on maintainence so I’ll prolly go 701 😂 also if you learn to wheelie a more difficult bike imagine how easy it is on a dirt bike when you step down
I will make a video on maintenance 👊 I dont think there would be much point in owning a mt07 and 701 they are very simialr bikes even tho they dont look it, mt09 and 701 would make sense, but the 450 maintenance isnt as bad as you think and if you pull out the dirt bike you are riding only to wheelie lol you will make good use of the hours and they are 1/3 of the price of a 701 nearly
@@gringostyl I wouldn’t own both haha, would sell my mt 07 and get a 701 cause they aren’t lams legal a2 type in NZ, I would def keep a mt 07 and 450 if we could make mx bikes legal like you guys but sadly the only option is a wr450f or ktm husky conversion which I am heavily considering rn, what do you think sell the mt 07 and get a wr?
