Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 is an upcoming motorcycle model from Husqvarna Motorcycles, a Swedish brand owned by the Austrian motorcycle manufacturer KTM. The Svartpilen 401 is expected to be a scrambler-style motorcycle with a modern design and advanced features. The motorcycle model was spotted on camera during testing, which generated a buzz among motorcycle enthusiasts.
It appears that the new version of the Svartpilen 401 will have several updates to its bodywork, including a more angular fuel tank section, a larger pillion grab rail, and a split-type seat. These changes suggest the bike will have a more aggressive and sporty look than its predecessor.
The new Svartpilen 401 comes with many components similar to the 390 Duke, which could result in improved handling and performance. However, as we know, the next-generation model of the 390, Duke, was recently spied during testing in India, suggesting what further updates and improvements to expect in the bike.
The new Svartpilen 401 has undergone a significant overhaul in its hardware package. The use of offset mono-shock and gullwing swingarm, as well as the trellis frame and sub-frame borrowed from the 390 Duke suggest that the bike will have improved performance and handling capabilities.
The new Svartpilen 401 possesses a longer subframe and larger seats that enhance comfort and functionality, making it a more adaptable motorbike for daily use.The wire-spoke wheels and block pattern tyres differ from the 390 Duke, but the bike matches the Svartpilen 401's scrambler theme. This should improve the bike's off-road performance and give it a more rough and adventurous appearance.
The next-generation 390 Duke's high-strung, single-cylinder engine is used in the Svartpilen 401, suggesting it will provide the same performance and power. However, knowing how the engine will be updated is uncertain. Thus, it's yet to be seen how much improvement the new model will make over the current model.
Husqvarna is expanding its range of bikes in India by adding the 400cc types of the Svartpilen and Vitpilen. As these bikes will provide greater power and performance than their 250cc predecessors, the competition in the 300-400cc market will intensify.
The wide range of motorcycles offered by Husqvarna will serve a broader range of riders and bike enthusiasts, while eventually increasing its market share in India. Furthermore, these bikes' performance in the Indian market will decide how they will compete with the competitors regarding features, performance and pricing.
Overall, the addition of the 400 cc bike to the Indian collection of Husqvarna is a positive development that would receive warm welcome from bike enthusiasts in the country.
