Rumour: Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 India launch on Jan 21

The bike will be powered by the same 399cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine as the KTM 390 Duke.

Husqvarna has notified its dealers about an upcoming bike launch that will be held on January 21, 2024. It has been speculated to be the next-gen Svartpilen 401.

The new Svartpilen 401 has already been spotted testing in India on several occasions. It is based on the next-gen KTM 390 Duke, which is already on sale in India.

The Svartpilen 401 has a unique design featuring a new split seat, a large grab rail and an underbelly exhaust. It is equipped with an upside-down front fork and a gullwing swingarm with an offset mono-shock at the rear.

The bike will be powered by the same 399cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine as the KTM. This unit puts out 45 BHP and 39 Nm and is paired with a 6-speed gearbox via a slipper clutch.

In terms of features, the Svartpilen 401 is likely to get an LED headlamp and tail light, a digital instrument console with smartphone connectivity and riding modes.
