Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 2024

Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 2024

With the 2024 update, the Svartpilen 401 has become significantly larger, more mature, heavier and more modern. With a lower seat height and wider dimensions, it has become more attractive for both short and tall pilots. The new TFT display is more attractive to look at and offers practical benefits. Despite the extra weight, the Svartpilen remains an agile fun bike with decent grunt from the single cylinder, a relaxed riding position and adjustable, well-functioning suspension. The only thing that spoils the riding pleasure is the weak, less powerful brakes. If the old Svartpilen was too small or too high, you should give it another chance in 2024.

Fun single-cylinder engine with top quickshifter and low vibrations

Adjustable chassis

More space in the saddle than before

More accessible than before

Beautiful TFT display & lush electronics

Weak brakes with a doughy pressure point

Higher weight than before
