First service at 1,000 km
The first service matters more than any visit after it: it drains the oil that carried the metal particles of engine break-in. Booked at a dealer it runs about €140, and skipping or stretching it is the cheapest way to buy an expensive problem. Here is what the workshop does:
- Engine oil and filter change
- Chain tension, wear and lubrication
- Brake pads, discs and fluid level check
- Fastener torque check and electronic diagnostic read-out
By calendar, not odometer
| Engine oil and filter | every 12 months if the distance interval is not reached |
|---|---|
| Brake fluid | every 2 years |
| Coolant | every 3 years |
| Fork oil | every 40,000 km |
| Battery | load test yearly; typical life 4 to 5 years |

What to buy for the 701 Supermoto's next service
Picks that match the manual's spec, chosen editorially and checked for fitment.
- See price at Amazon
Engine oil
Motorex Cross Power 4T 10W/50, 4 L
The spec sheet asks for full synthetic 10W-50 meeting JASO MA2, and this is the oil KTM fills at the factory. Paying for the brand on the sticker is optional; meeting the spec is not.
A 4 L jug covers two full changes with top-up to spare

Oil filters
HiFloFiltro HF155 + HF651 Filter Set
The LC4 engine runs two filters per change, not one, and this set is both of them. HiFlo builds original-equipment filters; the set replaces the KTM and Husqvarna OEM part numbers exactly.
One set per oil change, plus the two oil screens cleaned

What 701 Supermoto owners actually watch
- Identical LC4 care to the 690 SMC R: clean oil on time, yearly torque check, listen to the top end at valve services.
- Supermoto tyres square off fast; the handling transformation from a fresh set is worth budgeting for.
Frequently asked
- When is the first service on the Husqvarna 701 Supermoto?
- At 1,000 km. It is mostly an oil and filter change plus a full checklist, and it matters more than any later visit: it flushes out the metal particles from engine break-in. Expect around €140 at a dealer.
- How often does the Husqvarna 701 Supermoto need an oil change?
- Every 10,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. Expect roughly €155 at a dealer, or the price of oil and a filter if you do it yourself.
- What is the valve check interval on the Husqvarna 701 Supermoto?
- Every 20,000 km. Budget around 2 hours of workshop labour plus spark plugs when it comes due.
- Is the Husqvarna 701 Supermoto cheap to maintain?
- Yes, for its class. Scheduled servicing works out near €250 per 10,000 km on our model, below the supermoto average of €310.
- What does the Husqvarna 701 Supermoto cost to run per 10,000 km?
- Roughly €1,660 including fuel, scheduled servicing, chain and tyres, using the assumptions published on this page. Ride harder or softer and the tyre line moves first.
- What is the oil capacity of the Husqvarna 701 Supermoto?
- 1.7 litres with a filter change, using 10W-50 full synthetic, JASO MA2. Check the level on the stand after a warm-up; overfilling costs more engines than underfilling.
