3 recalls across 2 model years
The Husqvarna Svartpilen 701 has 3 recalls covering the 2019-2020 model years, with the most serious being a clutch slave cylinder defect on 2019-2020 models where the clutch can stop working entirely, leaving the rider unable to disengage the transmission and raising the risk of a crash.
The 2019-2020 model years also have a fuel leak recall where the fuel level sensor and fuel pump mounting area can seep gasoline, creating a fire risk if the fuel contacts an ignition source. There is also a structural issue on 2019-2020 models where the gear teeth on the license plate holder and swingarm can be misaligned, allowing the rear axle nut to work loose and the license plate bracket to contact the spinning rear wheel, which can cause loss of control.
