      Hey up Bretton, it does sound good, it's the de cat and the akrapovic without the baffle that makes it that good, thanks for watching and dropping a comment, much appreciated, ride safe, Simon B 👍

    Hi Simon, I live near Kendal and often take my 701 Vit on a similar route. My fave is taking the A6 north from Kendal and enjoying the glorious bends to Shap; good sight lines too. Returning via Tebay and the Greyrigg road to Kendal. Nice one!

    Hi Simon, did you mount the ABM handlebar or got the bike with it? Want to ask you if is it possible to mount with original cables and if it affects the leaning when cornering? Thanks!

    • @SIMONB1
      @SIMONB1  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey up Claudio, the ABM bar was already on the bike when I bought it, I believe it's the highest flat bar you can have without changing the cables, I think I would like a bit more upright and have been looking at the kit to do it properly 😁, hope that helps, ride safe, Simon B 👍

      @@Kirkish_Delight if you watch this video th-cam.com/video/5DFroeRNvLI/w-d-xo.html I mention it's a very underestimated bike, it probably the best bike I've bought for a couple of years, pity they have stopped making the 701 ☹️

      I really like mine, it's light and lively and very easy on the eye. Think husqvarna priced them too high which stirred up a lot of disappointment after the concept reveal. But then again, the handling wouldn't be as good without the higher spec brakes and suspension.
