Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 2025

Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 2025

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

Fantic Caballero Rally 500 2025

Fantic Caballero Rally 500 2025

The Fantic Caballero 500 Rally is positioned as a manoeuvrable, fun-oriented off-road bike with a strong character and surprising depth. It is not aimed at those looking for uncompromising adventure touring bikes, but at anyone looking for a light, intuitive and emotionally charged bike for off-road excursions and everyday use. With its powerful single cylinder, agile riding performance and numerous clever details, it offers a lot of fun - especially for riders of short to average height. At the same time, it shows light and shade: Where it offers high-quality milled parts and off-road-compatible solutions, it impresses. In other areas, such as the ergonomics for tall riders or the ABS that cannot be deactivated, it reveals clear limits. But that is precisely what makes it so charming - a small Italian with character, rough edges and corners.
