The official video is boring af😂
True! @@SupermotoCentral
Caaawck
Official videos are all the same and all of them will bore you to death.
Great looking city bike! Would love to see KTM give the 1390 to Husqvarna and see what they come up with
svartpilen 141 please husky
just do it
i think if Husqvarna made the 1390 it would look something alike the Brabus 1300 R edition
@@Aambeiennlthat’s kind of what I was thinking also, which definitely wouldn’t be a bad thing
I would be in serious danger of losing around 18 grand if they did...
city bike with all that power?
I have a 2019 Svart and I absolutely love it. This new 801 is a fantastic evolution and I hope it sells really well. Thanks for the review Bob!
Yep. I'll be upping from my 401, which I absolutely LOVE. Also Svart means black so the black colour is no surprise!
I’ll also be upping from the 401 I can’t wait
Same here. Will also be going up from a Svart 401 to a 801.
@@yohanyonsson hell yeah man can’t wait for this bike love my 401
Awesome!
The 401 was fun ! This 801 looks fantastic!
A husky 901 with the specs of the 890 duke R and the perfect bike will be created
I have a Svart 401 so love this. But... £10,499 I think is a bit steep especially if we are paying even more for that Dynamic mode, what could that be? Another 500 notes!!! Not sure they will fly out of the showrooms imo. Great detailed review as always Bob.
I think it looks great but I think I'll still keep my 2020 Vit 701 which I bought partially due to your reviews on it. Love my bike!
I have a 701 also but I will check it out. I think those who might have a 401 might be more apt to bump up a bit. This bike does have some things I like such as the TFT screen. I wished they had kept more of the look of the 701 which is more unique.
The 701 looks better imo. I think this bike looks good but lost a little bit of them sleek lines of the original. The tech and better dash is a welcome change though.
@@bikerbeliever8169 Agreed. But Since Svartpilen means black arrow, the bronze scheme didnt make sense. I actually think the 2024 401's are a step backwards stylistically as well.
Need the vitpilen version. Think they missed the mark with the color scheme (silver radiator guards, 801 stripe, etc.), but otherwise still in love.
100% agree with you. Exact same thought.
Now we’re takin, a smartpilen I could live with.
Looks great and the original 790 spec with 105 Hp and Q/S... That number plate hanger needs to go though
Thanx for video. Need more info about suspension specs and off-road capability. Waiting for review. Good luck!
I love this bike! However the price point is strange. Consider that a Yamaha XSR900, a bike designed and made to Japan's level of quality, costs nearly a 1.5k less than this and makes more horsepower from a lovely CP3 powerplant, while also having stunning "neo retro" looks.
I just don't see how this is going to sell, when Husky is seen as a "bargain brand" stateside.
This
Exactly
Then add in that the 790 engine is made in China...
Busy day for you, Bob. First the updated Rocket, now this 😅😅😅
I was under the impression that the 790 Duke was at 105 hp for 2024. The 95 hp version is for the 'L' model which can restrict down to the A2 47 hp limit.
TFT display is most welcome on the bike! Price is a little bit higher than expected.
Been waiting for the 701 replacement. This will probably be my next bike, depending on seat options. Ideal height for me is 800mm or lower.
Beautiful bike. My last bike was a Husky (701 SM) and though my current bike is a KTM (1290 SAS), I do very much love Huskies and their design a lot more than KTM's. Can never go wrong with more Huskies.
Hi, J Juan I think are a Spanish off shoot of Brembo.
Is the engine manufactured in China and fitted to the MT 800 also ?
I’ve seen somewhere that KTM, CF Moto, Norden etc are all fitted with the same engine in different states of tune.
What says you Bob.
Only the motor block is from CF MOTO. The rest is from Austria, according to several sources.
I wish they made their own design from scratch. It's 80% Duke 790 except for the wide air intake, headlight and rear light
It's a naked bike, half the thing is just the motor and mechanicals, there's only so much you can do. The plastics/shrouds are as different as they could make them.
@@Win7ermu7e It's a naked alright, but you can do a lot with design, just look at the MV Agusta brutale and dragster designs.
Keeping the engine but starting from a new frame would have been nice but It's obvious they just adopted the 790 frame even the seperate rear part is identical.
@@G1lgamesj Every svart and vitpilen has used the same frame and mechanicals as the corresponding KTM. It is what it is.
As a previously 701 Vitpilen owner, I can’t avoid feelling disapointed by the fact this is neither a Vit nor a Svart but a fusion of bote. I would love to see a propper Vit with those clip on handles and all that character (that is somehow lost in this new model).
To have svartpilen in any other color than black would be strange, the color is literally stated in the name: Blackarrow
Maybe the longer "loan time" will help you evaluate the bike's durability and reliability.
Any news on a Vitpilen 801?
Thanks
How many names are they going to give to the same bike? All the middle weight bikes are looking a like. Now they are dressing them up like sport bikes. At least the Suzuki SV650 stands out. Even the retros are looking alike except Kawasaki.
Jesse, what the f*ck are you talking about
Finally bike of the year ❤❤❤ love the design and engine is just right for it 😃😆
Looks great, but $13k USD is absurd, so many other bikes on the market with better value.
The svartpilen 801 is without a doubt a beautiful motorcycle.
The problem is when we compare with the 401 (old) and 701 models… which for me are some of the most beautiful motorcycles out there. But this design was one of extremes, we either loved it or hated it.
The new models are not extreme, but they lose their appeal for lovers.
$13,000 for a 790cc is a shame. At that price I’m much more keen on getting the Indian FTR.
Ticks all the boxes for me. If I hadn't just bought a Livewire One and I was in the market for a new ICE, this would be a very strong contender! Fun, fun, fun...
I’ll stick to my 701 svart that I paid $6k brand new…
Okay?
Have better design and look
I couldn't find a 701 in my area.
Then they stopped selling them. I can't wait for this new one.
I love the 701 much better looking.
For a Svartpilen name, I wish they added a bit more "scrambling" abilities to it. But nice looking bike, better than KTM in that regard
Yeah I wish it still had spoke wheels and the more offroady pirelli scorpion str. Otherwise I do dig a lot about it.
Oh, HELL YES ! I'll take that over any orange origami any day !
It's got the right amount of modern with retro cues to make it all work together.
Good job, Husqvarna !
And yes, any modern RBW throttle equipped motorcycle should have cruise control as standard equipment.
The hardware it's already there, just add the extra cost to the MSRP. It can't be a deal breaker for the majority.
Same for adding an QS/Autoblipper.
Thanks, MotoBob, for delivering the mail every time ! 😊👍
Looks nice. Not sure the price is particularly competitive though. I don’t think I’d give up my (cheaper) Aprilia Tuono 660 Factory for it.
This is beautiful, I was waiting for a norden 701, but this is much better
Had the 701 and I wish I hadn’t sold it. Not sure which one I like athletically more but it looks amazing.
It’s a differentiated bike in terms of looks, shapes and form. It’s very appealing, but would like to see the blue paint in there. Just all black, besides being always cool, but it is a bit dull as well. Eager to see your review about this one.
was hoping for the single coming back . Also, it looks like they are eating Honda's "neo-retro cafe racer" styling lunch.
Yep, I'd go for one of these (V7 850 owner)
Will look forward to your full review. Great work, thanks!
I currently ride the svartpilen 401, I have been considering an upgrade for awhile, looking at the Ducati monster or Triumph Speed Triple, but this I would say is a good contender. Price is on par with the Ducati whereas the Triumph ranges lower to around this. Either way I look forward to the test drive of all 3!
If they made the vitpilen with a fairing it would be incredible
The Nuda 900r was sick !
Best thing about this 801 is that it makes me even happier to know that my 2020 Vitpilen 701 in blue and white livery, will forever be Husqvarna's best looking and best equipped bike!
Gorgeous! I would take this over a duke for sure
I love your content. Please do a susuki gsx 8r video soon!!!
Have to agree city bike is not the description here. Also it’s fitted with the wrong tires. The bike itself looks great
Impressive package! It pretty much nails what I have been looking for: the right balance of performance and economy, the right balance of street and off-road, not to mention cruise control. The KTM looks are just not to my taste. It would be great to see a bit more length in the back of the bike to make touring a bit easier. However, that is really nitpicking.
YES looking forward to an actual 801 review
Any bike based on this platform is gonna be a banger..just a matter of taste.. husky for retro fans. Duke for crazies or CCM for fun on a budget
Kudos for cruise-control!!!
Will it have any features that need to be payed on a monthly basis?
One question: is the engine the new 790 produced by Chinese manufacturer Loncin?
Great vid Bob but why are you watching the Magic Roundabout in the back ground?
I wish it still had the spoked wheels
Good summary! I don’t get the aluminum side panels and the strange cut off coloring of the tank, it I’m still getting one. The side panels can be easily replaced
It looks like a fun time and a great bike. can’t wait for more content on it. I’m considering getting it could you do a comparison with the mt07?
Adding this to my list of bikes that I want to swing a leg in 2024 🔥
Love the style and punchy engine.
Also I thing it should have ran rims 👌🏾
Glad to see that the old name of (town and trademark Husqvarna) Silverpilen 175 cc (1955-1965) now preserved in Swedish but renamed as the "Black Arrow"
Looks great - glad your getting one for a few months.
And comes with all the same issues as previous engines. Leaks from coolant and multiple different seals and locations . Just not enough wrinkles ironed out to be called reliable!
A MT60RS rear lasts me ~2,500 miles on a Svartpilen 701, they're super soft. Not a great choice for a heavier, torquier bike like this one.
That’s true, especially the middle of the tyre!
I upgraded my tyre with Avon spirit, they good for 8k miles.
Needs Clip-ons and a Vitpilen badge.
Looks nice, got much of the tech ppl want these days, I really hope it will sell in decent numbers.
I'll definitely go and try it out when it's available, but I won't give up my lovely Svart 701 for it, and they are too similar in style to get one as a second bike.
If I didn't have my 701, I'd definitely consider buying the 801.
Cheers!
It's so nice, I just hope it won't leak oil like her 790 ktm sister
i think it would look better with an exhaust can on both sides to balance out the looks .
There are a few double shortie options. Leo Vince and Austin racing does them.
Reminds me of the original superduke so no bad thing there as I loved the looks of that
Well the Nuda remains the best looking bike husky have made in the modern era.
I really like the looks Bob, but the price is starting to touch on the Yam XSR or the Triumph 765 R and I would have to go for the Trumper just coz…..
Looks good, 100+ hp is just the sweat-spot for me, but i wish it had a lot less electronics. I'm debating this bike vs a more classic bike like the speed twin 1200
great looking but too expensive you can have street triple r for lower and mt09 for same price
I would find absolutely incredibly a bike with those looks with a 4 por engine!
Love the look of this one. If I had room for a 5th bike I'd be all over it.
Looks amazing, been looking into 790 duke and this is definitely a bike to consider now, any news on a vitpilen 801?
I have a 401 and was thinking I would like to upgrade to something bigger but I just don like the new 801. It doesnt look nearly as cool without the spokes and tank luggage rack and without the scorpions. Riding stance is too low, and while the added tech is nice the round bezel looked so much cooler (they could have put the same tech in a round display). Its like they combined the svart and the vit and in the compromise they lost what was cool about each
It looks like a really good UEM.
Talking about the color scheme of the bike, and that it only comes in black. I would guess it's boils down to the name.
Svartpilen is Swedish for Black arrow just as Vitpilen is white arrow.
And the heritage from when Husqvarna made them originally.
Like the video and is really into getting a svartpilen now
My initial impression about the design is that the 401 looks way better. The more I look at it tho, some angles are beautiful.
Still no news on a Vitpilen 801?
This or the Yamaha MT-09 SP? Both look to be great bikes, but I’d go for the CP3 🔥🤟🌟
Can you take it to a small off road just like 401?
Any speculation on the fate of the Vitpilen?
The modern Nuda 900
Ktm a sister company? They own husqvarna 😂
No Bajaj owns them both
Like a more beautiful and lighter Honda CB650R with a nice torquey twin engine . It is beautiful 😍. If I wasn’t concerned about reliability this would be my perfect commuter. We’ll see .
I would love to see go the Ducati route and carve out a single cylinder 600-700cc bike inspired from their superduke lineup.
Love it. Can’t wait to get one!
Looks damn good. I prefer Husqvarna’s styling over KTM. I’m a little bummed it didn’t inherit the now discontinued 890 duke motor. The 790 is still good was just hoping for a Husqvarna styled 890 duke r. I own a 2015 KTM 1290 Superduke and wish Husqvarna would put their mark on this beast.
great vid but can you give us mpg figures as well thanks
Did the lines become too modern for the past wire spoke wheels? I can't decide.
Get the CFmoto 800NK instead. Comes with Cruise Control and pretty much everything else this bike has at a WAY better price.
The 801 kinda looks like the Cfmoto 700cl-x to me, too.
Man the 701 was a much better looking bike
If you had £10k and some change, would you go for the Husky 801 or a Ducati Scrambler?
I love a svart, have the 125 and 701. I genuinely thought they were going to ruin it and homogenise it, ok, tick in the parallel twin box, but it still looks like it could get into Berghein and having done some longer trips on the 701, actually smoothing a few things out doesn’t seem like a bad idea. So long as it’s still an animal on the twisties 😈
Nice, having both the 125 and 701. I first got the 125 when it was launched, but after that first season, I traded it in for my 701 :)
The 125 was a fun bike for its size, I did over 4000km on it that summer. Main reason I traded it in was that the limited top speed kept me away from highways, it just felt unsafe going slower than the other vehicles 😂
Good video, great bike but it seems expensive
I like the 701 desigh more, but for specs this is better
Looks real nice, I'm really not a fan of the KTM designs (they keep getting weirder and weirder, my 2008 SuperDuke 990 looked better than the latest version), this husky looks more like a real motorcycle and less like a kid's toy. I always say, offer it in black and then offer it in any color you want. Too many companies including Yamaha, sell bikes with colors that are extremely polarizing (turquoise or neon wheels for exemple) and you don't always have the option for something more neutral.
Anybody know if there's a Vitpilen coming?
Looks awesome but price 😢
