Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 2025

Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 2025

The Vitpilen 801 sets visual accents that clearly distinguish it from the Svartpilen. The bi-LED projection headlight is surrounded by halo LED daytime running lights, giving the front end a more modern look. In addition, the aluminium tubular handlebars have been mounted lower and further towards the front wheel, making the ergonomics more active and sporty. The manifold fairing extends further down and gives the look an additional touch of sportiness. Compared to the previous "701" generation, the new Vitpilen is far less radical and much more suitable for everyday use. The in-line two-cylinder engine, which is already familiar from other Pierer Group models, offers a great riding pleasure experience. The engine's smooth throttle response and revviness are particularly successful. A great engine for the country road! The quickshifter from the accessories is definitely an absolute recommendation. If you also add the optional cruise control and heated grips, the 801 Vitpilen is a great companion for everyday use and travelling. For the latter, it is not only absolutely suitable due to the relaxed knee angle and good seating comfort, the low fuel consumption is also a positive feature.

KTM 890 Duke 2021

KTM 890 Duke 2021

The predecessor 790 Duke already proved that KTM knows how to build a mid-range naked bike for the road. The new 890 carries the torch with a puffy chest and once again lives up to its scalpel nickname. Lively, it pulls the radii and gives off a certain nervousness that can be interpreted as a wild character. The equipment is almost complete - but only almost. Why do you have to pay extra for the quickshifter when it was standard on the predecessor? It is all the more annoying that the clutchless upshifting and downshifting functions as smoothly as butter and that one would not want to do without it.
