Update: The 401 does get sintered brake pads, while the 250 uses organic pads! Apologies for the error

If you like everything about the KTM, except the loud styling and the image of it.... This is a wonderful option at a lower cost

Holy moly! Pirellis as stock is something to admire about. Good Job Bajaj. In total awe of this bike now.

The official website says the brakes are equipped with sintered brake pads. Also the European model page mentions cornering sensitive ABS+Traction Control. Strange.

Who told love @ 1st sight not exist ??! I never saw such unique out of syllabus design.. Though, l was kind of awkward with previous design, Especially when it's come to pillion comfort.Now it's became more beautiful with adequate power for Indian roads. Perfect 👌 My 2-3 years of (Re)search ends here with this model 👍

this motorcycle suits for touring!! 80%on road 20% for unexpected off road 👍

They should've launched the vitpilen 401 too

When you said Ashley, I was expecting a cute blonde but that was disappointing 😂

Thats it then, its the KTM without the chapri image, SOLD.

Exactly what I was thinking, The fender on the tyre hugger was the better looking than this conventional fender. It gave off that Ducati scrambler Vibe, At least they could have given it as an option, Next thing I hate about this is the spoke wheels. Tube tyres must become extinct now.

Yaar Dil aagya ispe❤

The Husky website mentions that the pads at the front are sintered pads.

Why not just give a tire hugger? This makes the rear so awkward

Are they going to launch vitpilen 401 and svartpilen 250 anytime soon???

Is svartpillen 250 discontinued...?

Give this guy a raise and a good bike!

The old gen svartpilen 250 looks miles better than the new 250 / 401 I bought a triumph street twin some time back and yet I'm still holding onto my svartpilen 250 just cause how good it looks

What is the price of Bluetooth connectivity module ?

What about service centres? Parts availability?

Can we install the metal bash plate of svartpilen 401 on the new vitpilen 250 2024? They have same body work right?

A KTM without Orange 👍👀

Which road were you riding this on..

Pls pls suggest vitpilen 250 or speed 400…which one is better

Does anybody know where you can buy these black crash bars from that are shown in the video? In germany I cannot find them.

Can you do a comparison video between this and triumph 400 ?

Is vitpilen coming?

In all probability expecting the Vitpilen 401 to be more menacing than the svartpilen. Any idea when you might get your hands on it for a review?

Waiting for its comparison with speed 400 and mavrick 440 .. not in terms of top speed but more in terms of reliability and riding comfort as all make decent power for touring..

Great little bike. I've owned this in the UK. I also have few videos on my account riding in the UK. By the way nice video. ❤

Mr. RM, post Vitpilen 250 review soon please

Do's it heat up like Duke 390

Do you think the adv 390's footpegs will fit here ? Does it have a power socket?

Is Husqvarna's after sales service good? I've heard the after sales service of RE, Triumph and Yezdi is quite bad.

8:44 can anyone tell me what are the prices for 250 wheels?

Limiter sound...?

when updated 250 coming

One weird thing is during the test rides dealership is removing the odo reading and speed sensor which leads to non abs and over traction alarms for a guy coming from 2018 rr310 cause my bike is getting old and since i decided not to trust tvs service anymore i want a companion for my 310(for touring and spirited riding) the sudden change in dash and no speedo info just felt like a lights show and that dash is huge .... and this felt like flying in air compared to my rr310 ....310 is a huge bulky vibrator which always forced me to put full tank cause thats the only thing that reduced most of the vibes ..sounds weird but i experimented hyd to vij 3 times and thats the case when the tank gets near reserve level it behaves like inosuke when he is hungry thats why i asked the test ride with less fueled unit of the husky 401 and this thing is like a toy for me but def not deceptive it clearly giving good feedback than the 390 ive ridden both for 30mins and def the husky clearly warns you with some extra wind and some whistle noise i don't understand where its coming from, on the 390 it is not present ... long story short my dad always whooped me when i want a ktm but i scammed him by booking it from a bajaj dealership which he thinks is a bajaj bike 😂 finally i got to feel ktm engine ..sad to see the husky are selling very poorly the dealership itself said they are trying to divert some ktm customers but who ever comes are mostly getting the 200 duke or directly jumping to 390 the owner himself said the 250 duke is most suggested by them for first timers but even they are moving to 390 .... they have 5 units ready but due to sudden rain a few weeks ago and careless staff just left them all 5 of them had signs of rust on chain and careless handling by the staff so i requested them for a brand new unit which the dealer himself agreed as he have to ship it to my town anyway so he will get a new unit which he gladly asked to check and verify in his warehouse before they are moved to his showrooms when the new stock arrive next month ... i shortliseted 401 and interceptor 650 but just one test ride and i never even went to the re showroom

How are you saying that you haven't ridden the 250cc vitpilen yet, I saw you riding it in a video about 3 years ago when that bike first came out. You did a review as well.

Lovely location.

How would it compare with scrambler 400x

they should provide option for tubeless spokes for 15 k. Everyone's gonna get it

Rishaad is the best anchor in whole Autocar India 😄👍🏻

The main issue of this bike is the size for the design. It looks quite big and macho when seen close up, like when the bike is next to you. But when seen in the streets, it looks really really small as though someone's riding a luna or the heavy duty mopet, especially due to its design. I don't understand why that is but they need to do something about it's size especially the way it looks. They need to give it a bigger set of wheels and longer suspensions as this bike is also considered as adventure bike, sometimes used for trekking and off-roadings. Probably a 19 inch wheel atleast in the front will look absolutely stunning for this bike.

I wished this svartpilen look with 250

do Husqvarna vitpilen 250 2024 model

Best beginner bike fr. Waiting on the 701 vit.

man i love the huskies so much but that seat height is a bit too much for me. they need to bring about a lower seat height accessory.

I am going to take vitpilen 250 2024 version. It's fast and its stylish lookin

Is Honda NX500 review coming? When?

Why not tyre mounted rear fender??

Doesn't that oversized headlight look weird?

Looks far, far better than Marvel, Harley 440, triumph, hunter etc....Will wait for performance review.

I still believe Duke 390 is better option.

Unfortunately company is removing those Pirelli tyres because of Government’s Make in India policy.

Honestly would have liked alloy wheels with tubeless tires and really dont like the number plate bolted on the visor and want it somewhere down . It really spoils the look

saree guard ?

Give it a 19inch front wheel and a longer suspension. That will absolutely make it stunning and more macho and purpose driven for offroadings.

waiting for vitpilen for so long

I want this with Alloys. & I want that Tyre hugger back. This is ugly. Let there be dirt on us. That's what made it different than others. Just make that hugger a little large and problem solved. These simple changes will change the game for this bike. Also Don't forget to enable different ride modes. Since Everything is there. Just enable them features. Forget about cost cutting.

The Svartplien 401 produces peak power & peak torque 500 revs higher than Duke 390!.. Funnily the official website says it does 32KW (46Ps)@9000rpm!.. 32 KW = 43.5Ps!!.. Not sure which figure is right!.. Peak torque at 39Nm@7000rpm.. Duke390 does 46Ps@8500rpm & 39Nm@6500rpm.. So Duke should accelerate faster than Husqi.. Svartpilen is 4kgs heavier than the Duke 390.. While the Duke 390 gets 1354mm wheelbase, the Svartpilen is 1368mm long.. So the Husqi is bigger in size..

lmao i choked my food when you sat on the rear seat of duke 390 xd .... we used to do shit like that during college days

Wats ur height bro ?

Weird that India doesn’t get cornering ABS, MTC and rider modes… Supposedly they will come with those features in the US.

No Ashley offended while making this video 😂😂

We want the adv version of this model

I really think this bike is a great deal for those people who like the KTM specs but don't wanna buy it due to it's image.... And I've seen this largely evident for those college students

Ashley we love you 🎉

Anyone who is above 6 riding this bike, I am 6'1. Planning to buy this. How's the comfort for long rides??

had test drive, 401 has rough engine with vibrations compared to Speed 400, even low end torque is low, need to change gear in slow speed, mostly power is at higher rpm, but otherwise bike feels amazing to ride, clutch is very light, bike feels light weight , Huskverna need to work on vibrations

Day 4 of asking Ducati Diavel V4 review ❤

5'4 inch me crying in a corner 😅

I'll wait for the other ashley 😂😂

ASHLEY!! LOOK AT ME 😂

Can we replace tube tyres with alloy tubeless tyres?

Is this weight less

This new design looks very mehh and vanilla. The reason for previous sales was the design. This one looks like every other bike. Those who own the previous gens, keep them. The used market price will be much higher in the coming years. Husqy should've just added bigger tank and odo screen, and kept the rear street hugger and changed the design of it to take care of customers complains.

Please mute the music completely when you are doing the exhaust note test.

KTM for roadster and Husquarna for offroad scrambler type.

The KTM duke can be really restrictive for taller riders. This is so much better.

That windscreen provides wind protection! Haha I really doubt that. This bike also needs a 19inch front wheel.

why recently almost every bike that has been launched has ugly rear fender (mavrick & hd 440)

Simply put the better ktm in my opinion

Ashley k jagah ashlaa agaya , i was waiting for ashli only

Hey Autocar India, Do share with us about the roads where the Svartpilen was shot in the video. Which road is this.

NOW IT LOOKS LIKE FZ-X

The bike looks like a toy beside you 😊

To know more about the Husqvarna Svartpilen401, click here - www.autocarindia.com/bikes/husqvarna/svartpilen-401

Dude your English is top notch... Where was you're schooling bro ?

everything looks fine, but the rear brake light looks like Bajaj Platina

Will we get the Svartpilen 250?

ashley look at me😂😂😂

Ashley is a old guy?

Rip Triumph 🤣🤣🤣❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Correction: Those are sintered pads, not organic

The aero is missing for 7 years

*shouldnt have removed the tire hugger*

bro really called him ashley 💀

1:06 SEAT HEIGHT DOES NOT MATTER!

looks good but no road presence.

Please make a comparison video of Duke250, Speed400, CB300R and RTR310.
