  • Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 priced at Rs. 2.10 lakh (Ex-showroom)
  • The Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 is a neo-retro, urban scrambler
  • Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 based on KTM 250 Duke; same engine, chassis

The Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 is one of the two models introduced as part of the Swedish-origin brand's debut in India. The Svartpilen 250, (Svartpilen meaning "Black Arrow" in Swedish), is a sort of homage to the original two-stroke single Husqvarna Silverpilen, a lightweight model from the 1950s and '60s, designed for racing. The Husqvarna brand may be a Swedish brand, but it's now owned by KTM, and in turn, owned by India's Bajaj Auto. The Svartpilen 250 is a modern motorcycle but with somewhat neo-retro charm. Here are the top 5 highlights of the Husqvarna Svartpilen 250.

Design

The Svartpilen 250 has a textbook neo-retro design with the urban scrambler treatment.

Engine

The motorcycle is powered by a 248.8 cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, DOHC engine that belts out 29.5 bhp of power at 9,000 rpm, against peak torque of 24 Nm at 7,500 rpm. The engine is paired to a 6-speed gearbox.

Chassis

The trellis frame is the same as the KTM 250 Duke, but the rear sub-frame is different to accommodate the slightly different tail section.

Cycle Parts

Like the KTM, the Svartpilen 250 also employs 43 mm upside down front forks, but the internals of the fork is said to be different. Dimensions are also the exact same as the KTM, but the 842 mm seat height makes the Huskies tall. The 166 kg kerb weight is 3 kg less than the KTM 250 Duke, but it isn't exactly lightweight either; but it's a good 14 kg less than the Bajaj Dominar 250, another product with more or less the same engine platform with a slightly different state of tune.
