Ride the Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 with RJ

In summary, the Vitpilen 701 thrives on such roads. I’m not going to bore you with 15 minutes of talking, I’ll just strap a gimbal to my chest and let the ride do the taking.
Chest camera setup: Zhiyun-Tech Rider-M gimbal with Yi 4k+ camera.
Lots of info, pictures, etc.. on my website, Facebook, Instagram & Twitter:

KZbin destroys the encoding quality whenever it encounters greenery at speed. You should watch it at 1440p or even better, at 4K. Failing that, you can watch on my Vimeo channel at 1080 with much better quality: vimeo.com/273304695

[@chuckyplays8477]

all bout dat sweet 4k

[@aserta]

Yeah, i noticed. They are doing it on purpose too. Older videos, that have no connection with current standards have been automatically downgraded to suit whatever cockamamie reason they have for this.

[@SurfTheKaliYuga]

RJ is the pillion seat any good on this thing?

[@royaljordanian]

No idea and don't intend to try it as in my opinion, it won't be comfortable for me or the pillion with both of us on it.

[@brandonfenwick3749]

Great video RJ. Would it be possible to film it in the city to get peoples reactions.

[@ryang1591]

Multi-million dollar budget for advertising? Nah lets strap a camera to RJ and let the ride do the talking.

[@theonlyDerp]

Ryan G Husqvarna's got an incredible marketing team, that 701 supermoto rideout was insane

[@riyanardiansyah7003]

RJ: hey do you want a job??

[@sanatnaik7943]

No Vlogging while Riding ✅ No background music in long ride videos ✅ Pure quality ✅ What else you expect from Perfect RJ? ✌

[@willmorrell488]

Here he goes again.

[@micandreasen6544]

Sanat Walker music or motocycle engine sound? talking or motocycle engine sound? Pure quality or talk and music with no motocycle engine sound. Keep bringing videos for real bikers RJ, for people who dont get it, watch a god *#&$ cooking channel.

[@sanatnaik7943]

Mic Andreasen I think you didn't get me right, friend. See, Many bikers they use an irritating and unnecessary background music instead of showing us the bike's exhaust sound. Which makes it difficult to watch. No vlogging means he doesn't talk rubbish like others, instead, he gives us the bike info and specifications. That's what I meant to say..

[@ryanm.191]

This bike looks insane I don’t know why but I love it It looks like a mix between a scrambler, a naked and a supermoto It’s stunning

[@TheLiberek]

It's kind of a modern cafe racer, with it minimalistic look, yet very modern one, but looks much more comfy than a typical one

[@novalis8181]

TheLiberek it's comfier than true cafe racers, but it will probably still kill your wrists thanks to the clip ons, an XSR700/900 would be definetly comfier while still having those minimalistic retro looks. But the vitpilen looks awesome + that sumo 701/690 engine is a great combo 😍

[@Zcs2727]

This is honesty the most beautifuly crafted bike I've ever seen. I can't wait to own it one day

[@ac0ncernedcitizen]

It's "crafted" in India.

[@anirudhhhh]

@@ac0ncernedcitizen lol no only a few KTMs are made in India

[@StillnessInMotion88]

I keep rewatching this for such a long time now. This is the best sound recording of the bike on an amazing road. RJ knows how to live.

[@513MUGSY]

Ok I have seen this video twice now and each time it has double how much I want one of these!!! I can't take it anymore!!!

[@charliemolda297]

By far and away my favourite bike

[@billva3xcd624]

Fantastic video RJ. It gives a different perspective. Thank you

[@DooMMasteR]

The perspective ist haunting and very very impressive... The Yi cam makes for awesome footage, colors and exposure are a lot more stable and confident and the gimbal adds so much realism.. awesome 😀

[@jailbreak9003]

Es ist einfach nur unglaublich geil dieses Video! BITTE MEHR :)

[@trevornelmes9331]

Some of the old Roman roads around where I live (North Cotswolds) are great to ride also. Lovely views too.

[@Sparkle_2002]

i like this angle of view RJ !

[@MrSpaceman1111]

video just AMAZING with new setup thank you for share..

[@gorillaninja78]

Love the steady cam

[@EmileGrognard]

So beautiful!! I really like the sound as well, will come out really nice with a proper exhaust. The English countryside looking splendid this time of the year 😎

[@vmcougarintn5035]

This was too cool. Better than riding pillion - no wind buffeting. (grin) The wind is hard on my old body. Thanks for sharing RJ, stay safe.

[@Dr.Rami_01]

You were a movie director - in this video - very nice

[@Skreamies]

This bike truly does look great, Husqvarna are making some great designs!

[@szabolcsfulep376]

This camera mode is awesome!

[@JosuaMc24]

love you RJ

[@kingsqueak2221]

The gimbal setup works really nicely for the POV shot like this.

[@MauradonNr]

gorgeous bike

[@aukanmeister]

The RJ signature Rizoma mirrors, and a bit more open sound... Did you buy it??

[@CODIEWRYDROP72]

I’ve ridden this yesterday from Central Bikes in Shepherds Bush, I am hooked ... love the bike 👍 currently own a Triumph Street Triple.

[@rio-diamante]

Interesting, i am considering between this and a 13/14 plate street triple, how would you sum up the difference? Is the 701 more fun/Looks better/user friendly/comfier? Would appreciate your thoughts buddy

[@SneakyyMe]

Just...AWESOME!

[@PETR0VV]

I dont know why but I was very satisfied to watch the gimbal itself behaving under acceleration and braking... Oddly satisfying i must say.

[@stbdrone6148]

Amazing bike!

[@alphalima7458]

Good vid RJ 🏍

[@sohu5141]

Hi guys ... Jamais, jamais je n'irais dans un pays où l'on roule à gauche avec ma HVA Vitpilen 701, c'est hyper hyper flippant rien qu'à regarder cette vidéo, alors pour de vrai sur ce genre de route en plus incroyablement étroite et encombrée de divers véhicules y compris un tracteur, ça ressemble à un suicide volontaire pour tous ceux qui n'y sont pas nés là-bas ... Ce Big bore est faite pour les routes et les cols des Alpes comme ici en France sur la RGA, c'est autre chose, c'est vraiment jouissif, je prends un pied EXTRAORDINAIRE à chaque fois ... V à tous ... and don't dead on road ...

[@ballzack4866]

You're making me want one of those things !

[@rizkyakbarsaputra4460]

Good sound!

[@josemanuelcerradaguillen4481]

Beautiful.

[@paddyfitz93]

Top Man RJ !👍

[@Fearless730]

Excellent ways!

[@frederik9969]

Awesome road

[@aron5454]

Is that exhaust stock ? Lots of popping !

[@Zcs2727]

aron x Yes it is

[@TheHellRanger]

its so fucking chill to watch your videos man!

[@Michael_-qy4fu]

Set the chest cam up when you're town riding. Love to see this angle as you filter

[@turkey9967]

Nice of sound

[@uncleFree]

may i ask you which brand of exhauster are you using on huqvana vitpilen701?

[@fanjoule2232]

Hi RJ I wanted to know if an Akrapovic pot is installed on this machine? With chicane or not? Congratulations for your videos they are superb. Thank you Best regards

[@mjonji1281]

This helps me fall asleep. The lull of a thumper...

[@zenesis2957]

Is this in dorking? Looks lovely.

[@user-pu2ky1om8c]

Your bike is good looking.Please tell me which bland is this mirror.

[@user-xo7ug7xc4e]

all the videos shot are very cool, I liked it. I'm from Russia

[@theohadrys3883]

The perfect ASMR video.

[@Tekspert]

I am going to call it this video is going viral 👌

[@redlinethin]

Is this still with stock exhaust? Sounds too good for stock!

[@attilagyorvari1202]

Dmitri Felbinger yeah its like he bought it, because mirrors 100% not stock so far i also think this is not the stock exhaust. I guess these are the rizoma mirrors what RJ prefers

[@redlinethin]

SoulOfHades it certainly does! Don't know what kind of magic Husky worked on 701 it seem to work. Sounds better stock than a lot of bikes with aftermarket slip ons

[@katsugi183]

Bike is lit❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@lourenco_ss]

The engine really looks like it’s a ride very similiar with the Duke 690! Love it! I would buy this motorcycle if it costs a little less...

[@kawaman5469]

nice bike

[@8eewee]

Hi RJ, lovely road. I have a question regarding test rides. Do garages let you test them because you make videos and it gives them publicity? I've been wanting to test other bikes just to find out what it's like, not to buy a new one and it feels like I'd be taking advantage of them for this. What's your opinion on this?

[@BobMatthews]

I recognise those roads, I take it you were somewhere in Surrey ;)

[@BlockedinsightShorts]

Can you actually test ride these? If you can I was thinking about it! What do you think RJ? The bike looks amazing I'm planning on test riding the 790 Duke soon... Awesome video man!

[@zabnat]

Is there a specific name for these kind of "green tunnel" roads? We couldn't have those overhanging branches, because we have to worry about heavy snow bending them.

[@SKBKER]

I just saw your last video in the news but they focused more on the bus driver and didn't even mention your name . They even mentioned the fist bump at the end but failed to mentioned it was you who intialised it .

[@royaljordanian]

Happy to have the Bus driver get all the credit, after all, we are bikers with a reputation to maintain ;)

[@Yuriy_Ne6o]

Просто ОФИГЕННЫЙ Ракурс!!!

[@juza101]

Fucking nice bike, driving and sounds!

[@KayoMichiels]

Love the mirrors! I wanna know which brand they are...

[@sometimesitstays]

rizoma

[@BlueMarbleRider]

Gimble shows up lots of suspension movement on those roads (Peaslake/Shere?) What did you think - soft, hard or Goldilocks? Notice that front right fork has red adjuster, while left has plain white silver: both full rebound, damping, compression or split? Liked the chest-gimble view. Sound was not the nuda!

[@royaljordanian]

IMO, perfectly setup.

[@PABLO-lo4dv]

Nice moto

[@Mototzigane]

Who else thought it's scaaf looking at the thumbnail ? 🙌

[@aukanmeister]

I know! I was thinking the same thing;-D

[@verghese1973ful]

i like the chest camera

[@Jonebee7771]

You've just been on ITV This Morning, the clip of you fist bumping that cool bus driver when he sees a ped walking in front of him and warns you, when you are approaching

[@gino_maximus]

Hey Rj, Is the nuda comfortable for 6 foot 1 riders?

[@hariramakrishnan7945]

Dear RJ, do you have any idea to visit INDIA ? I'm eagerly waiting to see you

[@soleluna2319]

I am getting my license this month. Finally I can ride.

[@edgeyt1]

I wonder if the KTM 690 Duke LCD instrument screen would plug and play with the Vit 701, the round thing that's fitted as standard is a disappointment imho.

[@spartanhd_]

Hey RJ, where is that initial road, it looks so picturesque!

[@SMU_3L]

Houndhouse Road, Shere

[@spartanhd_]

Cheers mate, might have a gander at them some time over summer :P

[@OffroadHope85]

where can I get thoose mirrors ???

[@cagasbura420]

what mirrors are those? where can i buy them?

[@theonlyDerp]

RJ, how would you compare this one the 701 supermoto?

[@royaljordanian]

Totally different

[@andygilchrist9015]

RoyalJordanian What do you think is more fun?

[@TrigunV4S]

RoyalJordanian how’s the comfort on the Vitpilen? I’m almost debating on replacing my 1290r with one of these bikes!

[@ScottyPee21]

Beautiful bike! Just how many do you own exactly?

[@edvanandel]

RJ owns 8 bikes. See his website: reel.tv/ But this bike is not his. It’s just for testing.

[@mpower3279]

Can somebody help me, this or the honda cb650r neo sport???

[@michivanhalen7086]

I'm thinking about buying one used for about 6.500€. Do you recommend it? I want to do sporty rides but also enjoy nature and just discover new places :)

[@benedito61.88]

*SALVE BRASIL*

[@normanhughedicko4076]

Single cylinder?

[@omarz4487]

Wow I think you should do 360 VR video's?

[@ReegusReever]

Madness.

[@kbrg4644]

What exhaust is this?

[@aserta]

Two things: wish i could hear this bike with the "RJ sound treatment 3 part special" and that the instrument cluster (?) wouldn't look like that. It clashes with all the other design elements on the bike, frankly, it looks like a cheap ChinaExports desk clock.

[@nicolascotti806]

Hi, mirrors name plz?

[@timmilimmi]

what is the name of the side mirrors u pretty much use on all the bikes u own?

[@royaljordanian]

Rizoma

[@DuongNguyen-uq7hr]

where do you live ?

[@fishmr.rector6516]

da best

[@MrBeaannn]

Stock exhaust or aftermarket?

[@romansandbank7251]

Mr Bean its stock

[@angeltran8340]

😍😍😍😍😍

[@MOTOPT]

The front jumps a lot. Or the floor instable?

[@patricksandeberg6474]

RJ's belly bouncing? Bellycam?

[@MOTOPT]

Perhaps? Or very soft suspension? Or the RJ is giving a lot of gas and the front rises? Only RJ could tell, I tried to test this bike but they do not give me.

[@beforth]

just a bumpy road.

[@royaljordanian]

Bumpy roads and the gimbal gives a true account on how hard the suspension works to keep the bike stable.

[@MOTOPT]

Yes bad road suspension is produced by WP performance sys, 40 or 43 mm forks. Thank you RJ. Husqvarna was not going to ease the suspension of course. Great machine.

[@jackking5567]

Dude you need to come to Northumberland and County Durham to the rural roads - much much better than those.

[@caroldave4037]

Jack King yur reet mate we've got best roads for them sort bikes..I'm in cumbria we are spoilt up here☺from dave good crack rj asuaual 👌👍

[@rossgraham8289]

Jack King Stanhope to Penrith. Belta.

[@rolandgunslinger5101]

RJ, are these the original mirrors?

[@redlinethin]

Roland Gunslinger no, they are Rizoma mirrors

[@PH1LB0T]

Very nice ride RJ, little too much plastic for my liking.

[@TheNickNak]

what kind of exhaust would you recommend for it?

[@royaljordanian]

A full system, not just an end can

[@justjd911]

3:10 When The USS Enterprise punches through a warp

[@martinharper5112]

Hi RJ Ere. Your not in the T.T! Much prefer helmet can, you get the gist of what your doing and where your looking. Cheers M

[@Rriicckk]

First I wondered why you drive on the left side, but then I checked that you live in Great Britain😅

[@gremlin2288]

🏍💨👍

[@verticalgyno]

Was you looking for Robin Hood? Did you find him? ahahahah Every time you ride this road , i think this Ciao ;)))

[@dinieezyane]
