Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 Review - Beyond the Ride
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 มี.ค. 2021
- Husqvarna created a ruckus in the Philippine market when it was first launched, the brand's best-selling Svartpilen 401 is loads of stylish and capable, but just how great does it ride? In this episode of Beyond the Ride, Jinno takes the scrambler on the streets of Metro Manila to put the bike through its paces. With its 373cc single-cylinder, it punches out a smooth 44 hp and 35 Nm of torque. Light in weight, but heavy in style, the Husqi is an amazing value priced at just P295,000.

I like how this channel uses third person camera shots rather than a POV. Makes you appreciate the bike at different angles.
100% Agree
I agree too.
Correction: The engine is a DOHC, not a SOHC. Our apologies.
na shock nga ako sa SOHC. tnx for the correction
Pin this
Love the way this is filmed, looks 1000 times better and lets you appreciate the bike better (not like other channels with go pros in their helmets on 30 min rides)
Just reserved my svartpilen 401. This will be my first motorcycle. Thanks for the great video. It helped me decide on this bike.
Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for watching.
@@MotoDealPh legal po ba ito sa expressway? thanks
@@kevinbarrientos9564 legal yan since its a KTM Duke 390 but good looking
It's a pleasure to see someone around my own height ride the 401 Svartpilen. I always thought the bike would not fit me. Now I know seat height is not an issue. Your video made me one step closer in deciding this is the bike I would like to ride daily in the city!
Your production values are top notch absolutely love watching the show just for the footage and the way it’s shot! Subscribed! Oh and I also ride and you put out some very accurate and thoughtful opinions on the machines that we love! Well done!
atlast! quality review with good viewing angles.
well done budd
Great video. Thanks for all you said and not talking for one hour like others do. Great camera work too.
You produce great content.
Keep going!
Yo what a great video! You should be proud of this work! For real!
I'm 40 years old... never ridden a motorcycle before! This one grabbed my attention. Getting my licence and this thing soon! Nice vid btw
Welcome to 40
I’m 45 years old and haven’t ridden motorcycles in 18 years. Bought a Svartpilen 401 8 months ago and boy am I having fun. It’s soo easy to ride. Good luck with your license and new purchase. Ride safe!
@@conolavicus3019 I got one also 6 months ago, very fun to drive outside the city and easy to drive in Paris' traffick
Same here I'm 37 and this will be my 1st big bike, well, first on my list.
im 43, stopped riding in my late twenties, but got a vitpilen 401 last year and rekindled that romance. I guess there are more of us than i thought. time for a social club.
Bro you’re one of the best in doing bike reviews! Just subscribed! 👍
If you're just going to use it as a daily commuter or a weekend bike, I actually prefer the cast wheels over the spoked. Though it does look better on spoked. But if you like to turn it into a dual sport, it's definitely a mandatory to have em' spoked for better stability on dirt/gravel/sand.
Can you explain how spoked wheel offer more stability? I mean the size is the same and the tyre also the same. So what's the catch?🤔
I've been waiting for this! ❤️
I feel like this channel knows what I watch
Salamat! Great video, greetings from Vancouver Canada!
Great video! Thanks for going in-depth
That was a very professional and nice video. Thanks for making it
Nice review and fantastic shots.
Imma subscribe.. i love the way you reviewed... from Mizoram
Love the video can't wait for the Suzuki GSX S150. thumbs up from France
This bike is sold out everywhere. It is obviously going to be a future classic one day. If one can’t wait because of the long wait list, alternatively you can buy the rare and equally good Vitpilen. I am loving mine! Nice review!
The avant-gardiste design and the mono engine that make the travel fun are the reasons why I'm gonna buy it next week
Thanks for the review my brother. You earned a new fan. 👏👏
What type of mike and riding camera are you using for your pov? I would like to start vloging
Great review and nice shooting. Manila roads look neat.
This bike absolutely brings out the ‘borderline hooligan’ in me. The sound is vastly improved when you decat - no need for an aftermarket silencer. Also, not to sound smug, but I have the wire wheels with the silver rims and they completely set the bike off. Great fun and naughty little bike especially when you consider that when the road stops and the dirt starts you can carry right on with your bh behaviours 😝
Jinno, great review as always. Very tempted to pick up a Svartpilen. I have a question though, what is the riding gear you are wearing in this (and other reviews). It looks like it's so light and breezy; just perfect for the hot weather in Manila - and would be perfect for where I live (Perth, Western Australia). This is one those issues that's holding me back from getting back on a motorcycle again - the balance between comfort and protection in extremely hot weather.
I love the line "It's begging for bar ends" you nailed it 🔥
Great review!) Will you do review of 701 version too?
I suscribe bcoz of your classy presentation. You present it well.
I am the lucky owner of a 2020 svartpilen 401 with spoke wheels. I just love the versatility of it and the look.
I love how perfectly proportioned you and that bike are. I'm 6'5" and every bike requires mods and looks silly.
Get the 701
Aside from the great shots of the bike, I like the gears. Gives me an idea how to suit up depending on the bike I ride. You should have a sponsor para may ootd. Haha
This motorcycle's an absolute stunner and excellent video 👏
Getting this bike soon!! ❤️
I m 5'6 and wanted to see how would I look at this black arrow. Thanks. Bro. Subed.
What a great review. Thank you.
Being riding my Svarty from last 4 months... Just completed 4k kms today... And I can safely say that it is the most fun bike I have ever ridden... It has only 3 negatives... 1. Seat height, 2. Ground clearance, 3. Tank Range... The seat height is okay with me as I'm 5ft8"... My solution for ground clearance is to reroute the exhaust from within the frame (like it used to be till 2019 models)... And for the Tank Range.. only solution is to carry jerrycans while on long trips in remote areas (read Ladakh)👍🏼
Hi, just wanna ask about ride comfort, I am 5'11'', 190 lbs, and thinking of getting this for a 2hr ride to the province. Will it fit my frame? Or will it look small to me? Thank you, ride safe.
It looked like a great bike for me to get back into motorcycling. But a 2.5 gallon gas tank? What kind of range would that give you, maybe 120 miles, plus 60 miles in reserve? In some areas in the western United States, 180 miles might not get you to the next gas station. Shame, because it looks like a great bike otherwise.
@@thehighllama8101 9.5 :)
Not sure what year model you got there but the 2020 models have spoked wheels which look absolutely beautiful.
New Filipino subscriber brader!
The intro music was very cool and unlike what you'd expect from a typical auto video.
🙌🏽
I agree! Can we get the name of this track please? I tried soundhound but didn´t get it @MotoDeal
dude I've been looking for a video with a rider my height on this bike as a reference point for a while now, funny enough it ended up being a Filipino like me. hahaha
Beautiful bike! Looks perfect and properly proportioned on your height...
Yung 200cc naman na variant nyan review nyo lods. 🔥💪🏻❤️
love the bike. love the intro music 👌
I recognize some parts of the Metro from the video. If I'm correct you were cruising around Pasay 😏
I really like this bike. It makes me want to go get my motorcycle license. Hopefully I can convince my wife 😂
3:40 " it's kinda underwhelming isn't it" very very true....but.....i own this bike and what a lot of people don't know is that it has an electronic limiter built in. Once she passes 1000km it's lifted and i tell you what.....she sounds amazing and can bloody move. Most reviews online are unaware because they are sampling a sub 1k bike.
oh nice, good to know, thanks
Can you please explain this? I own One and i'm still in the break-in period (under 1000 km). What Is supposed to happen After the First service? Thanks mate
@@mrktg147 hey mate it all happens automatically. When you hit 1000km the red light on your dash will flash for a while (it'll go away) and you read out says something like service due. Soon after this you'll gradually start to notice the bike has more acceleration. It won't be so heavy on your declaration either. As in you'll find it coast nicely in gear as opposed to feeling like its heavy on the breaks when you release the clutch. I never got around to serving mine as i was in a crash ( not my fault) so not sure if that changes anything. But trust me the bike will be so so so much more enjoyable to ride after the 1000km mark. Oh and your redline goes up from 7k/rpm to about 9k so you can really open her up. Im sad i have to go through it all again when my bike get replaced because its a pain to ride under 1k.
@@mrktg147 hope that makes sense.
@@mrktg147 it'll sound like a 373cc bike and not like a 50cc your pushing too hard.
Great channel ! New subs… review the r nine t scrambler…
That was an fantastic review, thanks so much for that!
I love the looks of that bike. Not everyone dislikes everything you dislike. Let us decide for ourselves. If I get one I will make it my daily commute baring weather.
Great review. From a coffee connoisseur :)
Hello, me also finally bought a new Svartpilen 401. Overall, I am very excited about it, but I still have noticed one little problem: the “balance” of the motorcycle. - When I ride straight on the road and lift my hands from the handlebars, the motorcycle starts to pull slightly to the right ... Considering that the motorcycle is brand new, from the store, I find it a little unusual that the center of gravity is out of balance. Have any of you had a similar problem?
Please for any advice or your experience ..
Thank you very much,
Jurij
Perfekt 👍🍻
This is my first bike in the future ❤️ solid bike for the price
Not only bikes, they are also know for their very high end guns.
I have a Husqvarna from 1938.
It still say Husqvarna Vapenfabrik (Weapons factory) on the engine :D
When can the Philippines have the spoke wheels and adjustable suspension edition?
can you compare it with Dominar 400. they both have 373cc also and almost the same engine.
is it also expressway legal ?
i believe this is perfect for women like me, coz like you said its slim and light. I just hope we can customize it and lower down the seat for my 5'3 height
I'm looking for my first bike and can't decide between the Mutt Akita 250 and the Svartpilen 401. Any thoughts?
Triumph Trident 🔱 for your next review please!
This channel is like the motorcycle equivalent of AutodealPh
This is actually by AutodealPH's motorcycle channel
@@shinababes woah thanks for the info!
Ako na 5'3 lang ang height tapos wala pang pambili kahit pinakamurang motor HAHAHA. tamang movie marathon lang talaga sa mga motorcycle vlogs. Nice vid sir.
One day this will be mine!
Will they give spoked wheels in India tho??? I was gonna buy a 250 but just because the 401 has spoked wheels I choose different coz it looks like complete with it
@motodeal where are these shoes from? Jeans?
Sweet I’m getting it
They had to do some cost cutting on asian models of the Pilens to keep the price tag at around 295k. They did it with the rims and non-adjustable front forks.
I personally love the looks of the spoked wheels but prefer the tubeless cast wheels this bike came with.
I’ve had this bike since January and I can’t find anything to complain about. Totally love it!
yup, it was to lower cost
How was the engine heat in the metro and fan noise sir?
@@mrgjr8758 for some reason not as hot as the 390 duke
@@JRUF40 I really enjoy your reviews brother. Great job and ride safe!
Do you like this SvartPilen more then the Honda ADV scooter you reviewed last year?
Love the description of this bike being espresso lol. Fantastic. On another note, does anyone else not care about the sound of exhaust? Every single reviewer makes it seem like you need an aftermarket system.
Sup Jinno nice review on the bike. Btw do you still have the videos from your show Hotwire on studio 23 before? I hope you upload them here on youtube, i was an avid fan of your show. I was surprised that it went off air.
blast from the past, im sure they are somewhere, but there will probably be copyright issues now with the music we used to play in the show
@@JRUF40 it's all about the benjamins lol
Planning to buy one. 😁
Thank you bro🤘😷
Hey! Great video indeed! One question. I just received my svartpilen 401 here in Greece. I realized that the model I purchased has no adjustable suspension. In your video the svartpilen you are ridding has no adjustable suspensions as well. Does anyone knows if there is a different version based in country or /year?
Adjustable suspension only available in US
Please do a review on Electric Motorcycle like VMoto Super Soco
do you prefer this or the vitpilen?
This bike looks so big on him. In reality it's such a compact tiny bike.
Can a 2nd person fit easily at high speed like 140kmph
Saan nyo po sir nabili yung half face mask
Can you check out the Suzuki Gixxer 250?
Love my Svartpilen !!
Me too!
Ganda sir
HELLO I would like to know to whom can i talk to about buying great bike with affordable price... Which bikes to chose from and if you have a place or showroom for us to be able to see personally the bikes? We love you TH-cam vids and my husband is picky with his bike referrals.
Which helmet did you use sir.
I like the sound
And the spoked wheels??
Y las llantas de radios??
its not your typical POV from beginning to the end of the show. pa review din po sana yung 200 salamat
coming soon
Please do a beyond ride of the new Trident :)
Please please please
I sold it recently, but I really enjoyed my 2020 Svartpilen 701. No mention of this option in your review so I assume it isn’t available there. That’s a shame - because the Austrian-made 701 is the Svartpilen you want...
Lods pwede po ba sa expressway ito?
Pwede po ba babaan ang seat height nya upon purchase?
Which is the red bike at 7:31???????? @MotoDeal
Can you do a vitpilen 401’review? Please
I think the stock exhaust sound is great, why call it underwhelming?
I went to KTM BGC back in January and the first thing I noticed was the downgrade to cast wheels on the local units. The svart and vitpilen look so much better with spoke wheels. They said they decided to go for tubeless because of our road conditions. According to them it would be easier for our vulcanizing shops to patch up a flat than replacing a tube. I still wish you would have at least the option to choose between the two. I’m planning to buy mine in April/ May, but still haven’t decided on which one, Vitpilen or Svartpilen. I love the look of the Vitpilen, however I prefer the upright riding position on the Svartpilen.
How was it? Did you get the Svart?
@@chisedevilla I ended up getting the Svart . I think I have the bike 3-4 weeks now and so far no regrets. I asked KTM BGC if the spoke wheels are an option. I was told that they are not available at the moment, but once available, they can be bought as an add on for a whopping 90-100k, oh well...
@@sash8957 Yeah, I asked KTM BGC too about spoked wheels around Feb, 2020. But it wasn't an option back then. It's really hard to have a walk-in if you'll have your svart for the first maintenance/service. You'll have to book a date first because they said that they have "VIP's" which they prioritize.
@@chisedevilla I’ll make sure to call them then before my 1st inspection. How much did you pay for the service?
@@sash8957 My first service wasn't done in KTM! Lol. I just had it serviced near me. Still went well. I'm currently using 20w50 synthetic oil. Seems to be running smoothly so far. I'll have it serviced in KTM after 1000km (currently on 750km).
Does this allowed on PH paid highway one?
You forgot to mention Husqvarna made street bikes in the 50 and 60ties, Silverpilen (Silver arrow) and Guldpilen (Gold arrow). So these new bikes are an homage to those bikes.
going on the Vit video 👍🏽
Allowed in Expressway?
The 2020 svartpilen also comes with a quickshifter (easy shift) as standard. You didnt mention this in the review, were you able to try it out?
no quickshifter as standard in this market
Wish you could mention your inseam measurement.
Can you make a video for the most comfortable motorcycle in the Philippines for your height. We have the same height sir😊
i m 6'2 i guess white arrow will match ma height , ur opinions plzzz..😢 lots oflove from INDIA..❤ here in india 401 is launchin on oct 2023😊
