Crazy that this video does not have more views!? I was searching for videos of the capability the Svartpilen has offroad and this is by far the best video showing what this bike can actually do offroad. Good stuff!
Agreed, I was looking for something like this too . everyone else’s videos take the bike thru even dirt and some grass. Looks like he kinda beat the shit outta the bike in some parts of the ride!
Clearly not it's natural habitat but very impressive. Thanks for posting. It would be great for your average forest service roads on a camping trip. Especially when you would be traveling on a fair amount of tarmac to get there. Good to know it'll do more if asked.
Hi im in New Zealand & I'm looking at purchasing one of these awesome bikes. Great to watch you exploring it & your limits 😀 was also great to see your speed increase as you went on. Please keep the great videos coming
The PIRELLI Scorpion Rally STR are the best Allround M+S Tires you can get !!! Even many BMW R 1250 GS and R 1300 GS Motor Bikes , are equipped or converted with these Tires !!! The main Purpose of use is 70 % Tarmac and 30 % light Offroad (No thick mud or/and Rocks !) But You know/mentioned this !!! They are the best in Rain and cold Weather (CANADA!) !!! Your riding offroad Skills are phenomenal !!! BUT maltreating the precious HUSQVARNA only for...let´s guess three Miles above Rocks etc. ...is "damaging" every Motor Bike extremly and means comparable wear and tear 30000 Miles on normal Tarmac !!! I couldn´t do this to any Motor Bike and additionally I´ve not the courage / skills...but YOU !!! "Paris Dakar" light...great Vid and so I´ve just subcribed !!! Nevertheless a extraordinary Vid !!! I hope You´re in good Health and You´ve purchased additionally a HUSQVARNA/GAS GAS/KTM , Enduro Motor Bike ?! All Models from HUSQVARNA and BMW R 1250/1300 GS are ruling !!! TAKE CARE !!!
The primary problem with riding the Svartpilen on dirt is the footpeg location. The secondary problem is the seventeen inch front wheel. The Svartpilen and Vitpilen are configured as road racers... footpeg location is major. Also... the chainguard is wholly inadequate for keeping dirt off the chain.
Pro: it CAN go offroad and hold it's ground Con: it's not the ideal offroad bike, far from it. Conclusion: multipurpose will never excel at anything, but it will do what it has to do.
awesome video! such a gnarly trail! i appreciate your attempt, so i don't have to lol! still it's an incredible bike, just gotta bring the right tool for the job ;D
Just got the 22 year model and it shut-off mid ride for no reason. Checked with a dealer and they got now clue about it. Did you, or anyone here with the bike had any issues with this?
El hecho de tener cubiertas on/off no significa que se pueda hacer enduro con esa moto. Es una moto de calle o como máximo también huellas amigables. Que daño usar así la moto.
Pretty cool to see someone out there wheelin' the Svartpilen. Shows how versatile these bikes are, yet still with their limits.

Crazy good video, love to see what the svartpilen can do in my own hands!
Wow👏 You are showing us what that 401 can get through. Thank you for risking your life and limbs to do so, lol. Seriously that was pretty cool!
You’re a braver man than me. No way would I have taken that out in such conditions

Husky should release a 401 Enduro and a 401 Supermoto
Yes! Also a 701 and a 401 Norden.
401 Supermoto would be legit...and finally be another option to the amazing (...but extremely outdated) DRZ 400 SM.

Great video, definitely gave a run for it's money. I think with hard knobby tires it would actually be versatile.
Pro: it CAN go offroad and hold it's ground
Con: it's not the ideal offroad bike, far from it.
Conclusion: multipurpose will never excel at anything, but it will do what it has to do.
jack of all trades but master of none..
Yes! That is awesome! Have you thought about putting taller tires to give you a bit more clearance?
Definitely not it's territory. The 401 was crying for tarmac.
awesome video! such a gnarly trail! i appreciate your attempt, so i don't have to lol! still it's an incredible bike, just gotta bring the right tool for the job ;D
4:41 looks like a lot of blood on the trail
Great stuff! Been trying a bit of this myself lately 👌🏼 Nothing as extreme as you though.
Keep it up brother
creo que con una volante mas alto y ancho te seria mas comodo, pero igual esta genial, tremenda moto
have you hit any rocks that have caused damage? also is your skid plate stock?
Did the front fender clearance issue present itself ?
Not the right tool by any means....but you did it.
thank you for your video, I think to do the TET with my svart but im not sure when I look your video lol :-) I have a channel to, take a look
How have the fork seals held up?
Just got the 22 year model and it shut-off mid ride for no reason. Checked with a dealer and they got now clue about it. Did you, or anyone here with the bike had any issues with this?
Hello . For yours bike svartpilen for pratice off road, all parts its original.thanks you
haciendo cagar la moto

Click bait, where is the hard enduro? Be brave and go do double blips on that
