Husqvarna Svartpilen 401
The Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 has a top speed of 160 km/h, produces 43 hp and weighs 158 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
O Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 foi introduzido em forma de produção em 2018, estreando ao lado de seu irmão, o Vitpilen 401, como parte da linha urbana neo-retrô moderna da Husqvarna, desenvolvida em colaboração com a KTM. Construído na mesma plataforma da KTM Duke 390, o Svartpilen (em sueco para “Black Arrow”) adotou uma estética mais inspirada no scrambler, com barras verticais e pneus nodosos, contrastando com o estilo de corrida de café Vitpilen. Ele rapidamente ganhou seguidores por seu caráter leve e versátil e seu design industrial escandinavo distinto.

O que os compradores devem saber
KTM Duke 390 Platform
The Svartpilen 401 shares its proven 373cc single-cylinder engine and chassis with the KTM Duke 390, meaning parts are widely available and mechanics familiar with KTM can easily service it. This shared platform significantly reduces long-term ownership costs.
Watch the Cooling System
Owners commonly report the radiator fan running frequently in slow urban traffic, and the bike can run hot in stop-and-go conditions. Ensuring the coolant is maintained and the radiator is kept clean is a key maintenance priority.
Stable Resale Value
The Svartpilen 401 holds its value reasonably well due to its niche scrambler styling and cult following, often retaining 70-80% of its value after the first year. Its unique aesthetic keeps demand steady in the used market compared to more generic naked bikes.

"Deslumbrante corredor de rua que castiga você em viagens longas."
O Svartpilen 401 me agarrou no momento em que coloquei uma perna sobre ele — aquele assento plano, o tanque escurecido e o cano levantado fazem com que todas as outras nuas de sua classe pareçam genéricas. Na cidade e em estradas B sinuosas, o pára-choque de 373 cc é genuinamente envolvente; ele puxa de forma limpa a partir de 4.000 rpm e a suspensão WP engole asfalto mais do que o preço sugere. Mas depois de mais de duas horas, a realidade é dura: aquele assento minimalista é basicamente uma prancha, a proteção contra o vento é inexistente e a vibração nas barras se torna uma companheira constante acima de 110 km/h. A confiabilidade se manteve sólida por mais de 14.000 km, embora a corrente padrão se desgastasse mais rápido do que deveria e as pontas das barras off-road sejam um ímã de impressão digital que arranha se você olhar para elas de forma errada.

Avaliação do comprador usado
"Character-packed urban scrambler that rewards buyers willing to overlook its flaws."
$3,500-$5,500 usedThe Svartpilen 401 is genuinely one of the coolest things you can buy used for under five grand, and I mean that without irony. The KTM Duke 390 engine underneath all that Scandinavian styling is a proven, rev-happy unit that'll hit 100mph without drama. That scrambler aesthetic isn't just posturing either — the high-mounted bars and grippy Pirelli Scorpion Rally STRs make it genuinely capable on fire roads and loose gravel. Just don't expect serious off-road performance; it's a mood, not a motocrosser. Buy one between 2019-2021 and check the service history religiously. Early examples had occasional issues with the WP suspension feeling crashy over sharp bumps — a known quantity. Also inspect the subframe mounting points if it's been dropped, because owners do drop these. The flat seat looks stunning and feels punishing after 90 minutes. Budget for aftermarket seat foam or a gel pad immediately. Overall, it punches well above its price point in terms of character and urban usability. Not perfect, but deeply likeable.
