Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 2018

Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 2018

The Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 is a true highlight of the 2018 season. Its appearance is unique and the technology under the pretty design is also something to behold. The combination of 75 hp from the well-known single-cylinder, paired with a superbly shifting quickshifter, creates an insane amount of fun on the road. However, the engine needs revs and not everyone will like the riding position. The Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 is therefore a motorbike that you have to get completely involved with. But if you can do that, a lot of fun is guaranteed.

Fantastic design

powerful engine

quickshifter with blipper function

competent chassis

sporty seating position

low weight.

uncomfortable seating position

must be driven above 3,000 rpm

probably uncomfortable on long journeys
