  • Husqvarna SVARTPILEN 401 unveiled at EICMA 2017



    This is a modern-day interpretation of a rugged street explorer. The Husqvarna SVARTPILEN 401 offers a progressive new way for potential riders to access and experience motorcycling.

    The Husqvarna SVARTPILEN 401 is a modern single-cylinder 4-stroke set in a compact and thoughtfully designed package. Beyond its styling and exterior though, it has a high-focus on functionality, so comes with rugged knobbly tyres, a practical tank rack and more robust protection than its VITPILEN 401 sibling, which includes a protective skid-plate and exhaust protector. The riding position on the SVARTPILEN 401 is also more upright because of its higher and straighter bars.

    STYLE & DESIGN:

    The SVARTPILEN 401 has a more rugged style to it. The parts are designed with an obligation to not just look good but to be fully functional as well. With a nod of respect to the honest and simple way that motorcycles were created in the past, yet with truly modern equipment and styling.

    BODYWORK:

    For the SVARTPILEN 401 functionality plays an important role and you can see that when you take a look at the bodywork, more robust protective parts were incorporated into the design – such as an exhaust protector, skid plate and tank rack, which form the basis for a
    modern day scrambler.

    RIDING POSITION:

    Fitting with its higher bars and knobbly tires, the riding position for the SVARTPILEN 401 is more upright and centred than its VITPILEN 401 sibling’s slightly tucked rider’s stance.

    INNOVATION / EQUIPMENT:

    The SVARTPILEN 401 is fully equipped with a split seat as well as knobbly tyres, a protective skid plate, exhaust
    protectorin a modern chassis with progressive engine technology.

    THE RIDING EXPERIENCE:

    Who knew being seated completely upright could be this relaxed? Rediscover your urban environment aboard this agile, functional and raw riding machine.
