The Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 replaces the Svartpilen 701 for 2024. The visually-striking naked is powered by the 799cc LC8c parallel-Twin that's also found in the KTM 790 Duke and 790 Adventure.

We had a chance to give the Svartpilen 801 a good flog at a press launch Husqvarna hosted in Provence, a region in southern France, where we hustled the bike around the region’s craggy mountains.
