The squid in you will appreciate how wheelie happy and how quick the vitpilen is. It’s got all the torque down low and plenty of power up top. will power wheelie in third (with traction control off) And you can really lean it over hard. It’s an unassuming monster in the canyons. Which can and has been a blessing around cops and Karen’s as they don’t perceive it quite the same way Going against my friends R6 in the tighter canyons he was actually having a little bit trouble keeping up because he couldn’t keep it in a high enough rev range. You can just hang out in second and third and make it look easy. There’s so much torque/power in second and third right off 3k rpm that it’s almost too much for a beginner. It’s very much a sport bike in disguise. Also up/down quick shifter while not perfect is great once worn in a bit.

Same as any other naked bike. Or no bike if you can propell yourself up to speed another way. I find the wind hitting my legs rather annoying on naked bikes above all else.

So, naked vs supersport...That depends on what you need. For the comparison purpose, it would make way more sense to compare 701 to MT-07 and XSR 700, Kawi Z650/900 & W800 series...etc etc

So is the R7 the new CBR500 then. 😂 The boring P-twin to dunk on. I think for the 600-700 class of sport/naked bikes the perfect bike is just the SV650, it's got the performance to be a track bike, the glorious sound of a 90 degree V-twin, and comes with naked and faired variants so you can get whichever style you prefer.

What is a gearing on Svartpilen? I have Duke 690, and the gearing was too tall, so I changed to -1 front +2 rear (15/42). Now 6th gear is usable, before that 6th gear was unusable

Not sure why spite's so surprised by the roll on tests. The svart's lighter, spites more experienced with this type of test, the bikes make about the same power stock, but the svart isn't stock, and the svart has a quick shifter. The R7 is more aerodynamic and might have an advantage in the the combined rider and bike weight, but that isn't enough to overcome the svart's advantages.The result is they aren't that far apart, but the svart is able to pull away eventually.

So the R7 is better than the R6 because it’s power and engine are more street oriented, but then you don’t like the R7 because it’s a sport bike without the power? Can you guys stop with the pointless sport bike hate? I get you don’t want to promote “street rosi’s” or squidding, but god damn you act like you hate these amazing sport bikes for being “sporty”
@alkane6467 Жыл бұрын
the R7 doesn't have a sporty chassis or engine, that's a fact. the svartpilen is sportier with its ultra-rigid chassis and its engine is able to push longer than the CP2 with minor tuning. the R7 is just an improved Mt07 with a sporty stance
