    My mods and rides - Joe's Svart 401

    Thanks! The Leo Vince sounds awesome, I just wish I could take off the "Leo Vince" branding. The levers have receive a fair amount of praise in the street. Somedays I dig them, others I think about putting black ones back on. Would love to find bronze lever to match the bronze engine cover! And...

    Vit and Svart 701 discontinued, buy one while you still can! :-)

    I really want to pick up a 701, but my friend has a Duke 790 and he loves the engine... so I'm torn between picking up a 701 or waiting for a 801/901.

    Nice! That is a MT-07? Been thinking about getting one... any information on how it compares performance wise with the 701?

    Even Jalopnik likes the Svart 125

    Great post! Agree.... its the same size, just a smaller engine. Man, I used to be an avid reader of Jalopnik... since I started listening to podcast, I get my "auto" news from them. Even forgot about the website.

    2021 Svartpilen 125: What’s That New Husqvarna Bike Coming February 3?

    Hmmmm.... Weight without fuel of the 125 is 146kg.... the 401 is 152kg. So exact same bike with a smaller engine. I mean, 125cc works for a dirt bike (which usually are very light), but for a bike that is 146kg? I understand the 250 model... but this one, not so much (at least for the US...

    2021 Svartpilen 125: What’s That New Husqvarna Bike Coming February 3?

    There's a new countdown.... due in 5 days. I would dig a 790 or 890 (801 & 901?) Svart. I would also be happy with a discounted 701 due to some new release :)

    My mods and rides - Joe's Svart 401

    Thanks! That's where I got them. I now want to change the rear ones I got for the ones I have in the front :)

    My mods and rides - Joe's Svart 401

    Updates! While in a ride I lost a screw from my bar end mirrors. Could not find a replacement in time, so ordered these ones from Amazon. They look awesome in the "down" position, but visibility is shit, so I rotated them to the "up" position. Also installed axles and radiator protectors.

    Today's ride to the center of the island. Almost no cars, roads were great, weather was great.

    Bar end mirror question

    Agree! Got this recently and even though they look cool, you cant see shit in the “down” position. Will flip them “up” tomorrow.

    Svartpilen "Rear Baggage Carrier" (and other stuff) Needed

    That's the thing, I want to keep both setups :) Just keep me in mind if you end up making the mod to the Svart handlebar and want to sell the Vit setup.

    Svartpilen "Rear Baggage Carrier" (and other stuff) Needed

    If you install a Svart handlebar in your Vitpilen, I might be interested in buying the Vitpilen parts, I want to try the Vit riding position.

    Svartpilen Weight Reduction Project

    I actually like that :) My friend has a KTM SMC R 690 with an aftermarket muffler, without baffles. Under normal driving conditions it sounds really nice, only goes "BRAAP" in WOT. I dig it.

    Svartpilen Weight Reduction Project

    Thanks! Good to know about that option. I already have the LeoVince sleeve and really like the sound of the bike. I would not mind a change in sound, but I dont want an obnoxious sounding bike. Let me check if there are any sound clips on Youtube.

    Svartpilen Weight Reduction Project

    Regarding the collector box, the only easy way (meaning with off the shelf parts) to eliminate it is going with a cat-delete pipe? I'm interested in eliminating it is for the weight reduction, but I'm happy with the way my bike sounds right now (LeoVince slip on). Also, I would prefer to avoid...

    Got them last Sunday, felt nothing wrong while they were on the display. I turned the bike off and on and they were gone.
