Husqvarna Svartpilen 701 2018

At first glance, the Husqvarna Svartpilen 701 looks like a classic second motorbike. But in the saddle, it presents itself as a pleasing and accessible universal talent. It makes experienced riders happy and pleases beginners in equal measure. The surcharge on the 401 is considerable, but it pays off at the latest at higher speeds on great motorbike routes. There, the Svartpilen 701 can go at a fast pace!

Great chassis with smooth handling - yet not nervous

Engine is a real gem for single-cylinder fans

Pleasant seating position in city traffic

Pleases even on bad asphalt - very wide range of use.

Vibrations are a little annoying on long motorway journeys

hard seat for driver and passenger

cockpit not very easy to read.

Triumph Speed Twin 1200 2019

The Triumph Speed Twin 1200 looks like a magnificent but also powerful motorbike in the photos. But even when test riding it, it becomes slender and dainty. On the test ride, it goes even further. It is an accessible and easy-to-ride motorbike. In fact, it's small, compact and lively. A good choice if you want to ride 1200 cc and 97 hp and always thought that was way too much. In detail, the Triumph is lovingly and beautifully finished. A heart-warming motorbike.

Beautifully designed - even with the details not immediately visible

low seat height

accessible and easy handling

1200cc and 97hp - easy to ride but still emotionally served.

Sharp knee angle for tall people

slightly rough response in Sport mode

squeaky rear brake during test
