usqvarna took the
covers off its produc-
tion Vitpilen 401 and Svar-
tpilen 401 machines.
The Vitpilen 401, Husky
says, is a simple and
progressive urban street
motorcycle that provides
a new gateway into the
motorcycling culture for
a wider range of riders.
Devoid of any excess and
focused on providing a
pure riding experience,
the Vitpilen 401 features a
technologically advanced
single-cylinder 375cc
engine that is housed in a
stripped-down but pro-
gressive layout.
The Svartpilen 401 has
a high focus on everyday
functionality thus featur-
ing knobby tires, a tank
rack and more robust
protection all over. Built
around a similar chassis
and engine philosophy
to its Vitpilen 401 sibling,
the Svartpilen 401 offers a
more upright riding posi-
tion thanks to its wider
motocross-styled bars.
Want one? You'll have
to wait a while. Husqvarna
says they won't be re-
leased until the spring of
2018. CN

street-going Vitpilen 401 (and Svartpilen 401).
The Svartpilen 401 features a more upright
seating position and off-road styling.
