At Eicma 2017 in Italy, Husquvarna unveiled the Vitpilen 701 and Svartpilen 701 concept motorcycle. Covers went off the production Vitpilen 701 machine, while the company also introduced the all-new Svartpilen 701 concept motorcycle. These two new machines are powered by robust yet sophisticated single-cylinder motors that are housed within a minimalistic layout.
The all-new Vitpilen 701 machine represents a bold step into new territory for Husqvarna Motorcycles. Inspired by the same unique design approach that runs through the whole Vitpilen family, the Vitpilen 701 perfectly embodies Husqvarna’s progressive vision for innovative and accessible street motorcycles.
Largely inspired by the brand’s Swedish heritage, the Vitpilen 701 is a modern motorcycle that features some of the most state-of-the-art technology available. From the trellis frame to the powerful single cylinder motor or the standard WP suspension and Brembo brakes, this machine is bristling with premium components.
VITPILEN 701 HIGHLIGHTS: Chromium-molybdenum steel trellis frame, 75 hp engine – the most advanced single cylinder available on the market, Ride-by-wire throttle and traction control, Switchable ABS and Slipper clutch.
SVARTPILEN 701 CONCEPT: The Svartpilen 701 features a technologically-advanced 4-stroke single-cylinder engine that is housed in an incredibly stripped down but progressive layout. It’s a modern and innovative naked bike waiting to offer a raw and exhilarating experience on two wheels.
