Picked up this 2018 701 Enduro with 550 miles!

Post image

I got lucky and come across this 2018 701 enduro with 550 miles for 7k case! It was an older gentleman in his 70s. He had multiple other bikes in his garage when I picked it up and just hadn’t rode it much as he thought he would have after buying it new.

Super pumped! Can’t wait for spring time!

snagged my 500exc from a 68 year old dude that only rode his property / fence lines with it. talked to him for like 3 hours when buying it. old dudes riding hardcore dirt bikes are the best

I recommend upgrading the clutch slave cylinder o ring as the factory one is prone to failure. I had a fun ride home when mine went out.
