    BIG ADVENTURE on my 2021 Svartpilen 401

    Hmm, well just to outfit the left and right side is gonna run you $455 CAD. Without the bags. I did see this option before I bought the SW-Motech DryBags and just decided they look really nice but not worth it. But all personal preference. Get what you like.

    BIG ADVENTURE on my 2021 Svartpilen 401

    Wow...in the icy depths of Ontario right now -4°F I was reviewing my adventure lol. I miss it. Planning a trip out to hopefully Nova Scotia and New Brunswick in the spring/summer. Can't wait. I'll prolly start a new thread about it once I have some sorta idea of where to go! Or if anyone...

    2020+ Svartpilen and Vitpilen Seat Options

    Lol, I'll keep that in mind. But judging by how cold I was riding in 12°C, rainy weather I'd need to buy a whole lotta new riding gear...or wear my sled suit! :)

    2020+ Svartpilen and Vitpilen Seat Options

    Haha. Thanks guys. I spent 6 days in a row on the Svart and 3000km. By the 2nd or 3rd day I was kinda use to it lol. But ya the ass got slightly sore, but I found the fuel ups kept me stretching. I’ll prolly pick up the ergo seat Mar/Apr for next season. No point in getting it now…pretty...

    2020+ Svartpilen and Vitpilen Seat Options

    Oh yes, I know. I’m not saying the 2018/19 seat for mine I’m simply asking the “ergo” seat. Is it better/more comfy or is it just a style thing. There’s a 2020/21 “ergo” Vitpilen seat I could get that would fit my Svart as well but again is it just style or is it actually better?

    SW-Motech PRO Tank Ring and DayBag Tank Bag on 2021 Svartpilen 401 or 701

    Oh...I bought this Ah yes, I agree. I was taking it super easy and watching make sure it didn’t get clogged up. It was a fairly coarse wheel so it didn’t get too clogged. I finished with a file though like you suggest. I didn’t try a disc sander (one of those stationary ones). I imagine...

    SW-Motech PRO Tank Ring and DayBag Tank Bag on 2021 Svartpilen 401 or 701

    More PRO TANK RING installed pics. PRO Tank Bag. DayPack (5L > expandable to 8L). I think I could have got the bigger one (PRO SPORT Tank Bag - 12L > expandable to 17L) but not too sure. I ordered from Spain so I didn't want to take the chance. But now that I know the ring works I may...

    SW-Motech PRO Tank Ring and DayBag Tank Bag on 2021 Svartpilen 401 or 701

    Tremclad Semi-Gloss Black. I just painted on the Tremclad with a fine paint brush instead of spraying the whole piece. Original paint is obviously more resistant. Once the plastic/fiberglass tank ring is installed on top you don't even see the Tremclad except on the edges. So essentially I just...

    SW-Motech PRO Tank Ring and DayBag Tank Bag on 2021 Svartpilen 401 or 701

    Alright. So I said I’d post it and here it is. Keep in mind these modifications to the ring are so I didn’t have to remove or modify the tank rack. If I messed up the ring it was $40 CDN, the rack …who knows how much. $150? This will/should work with a 401 or 701! Parts List...

    2020+ Svartpilen and Vitpilen Seat Options

    hey, you still liking the seat? I was thinking of the ergo seat ...vitpilen or svart two piece. But I'm looking for user opinions...is the ergo one better than the stock seat?

    New 2020 Svartpilen 401 Rider!

    mmm, Tinty, just curious. What’s the model number of those grips. I went to the Oxford site and there’s like pages and pages of grips… Any issues when installing them? They fit well? Removal of the old ones? Thx

    i thought about the 2L one but I like the markings on the 1L better…

    Husqvarna 401 Oil Change

    Correction...haha, I cancelled my order and got this instead. Very nice markings IMO. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08WX3JWDM/ref=twister_B08WN7QBG3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 I like the KTM one, but ya, like you said, no markings. I suppose it doesn't matter...but whateves, just a measuring cup...

    Husqvarna 401 Oil Change

    I'm in Canada. That KTM measure is here, but for $60! lol. I ordered this...looks good. Easy markings too. Each mark seems to be 100 ml. So 1.7, 1.8, 1.9 should be easy peasy. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B007IBJIBG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 R

    Husqvarna 401 Oil Change

    So, after some googling today and browsing on a few forums I’m lead to believe that oil capacity should be about 1.7L without oil filter or bottom screen removal 1.9L with oil filter replacement and bottom screen removal (i.e. complete drainage) So plus 200 ml. That would’ve made my fill...

    Husqvarna 401 Oil Change

    Strap. That's a good word for the "hooky thingy" lol. Haha. I think yours does have the strap but it goes under the exhaust ...pretty sure I saw it in one of your pics when you're showing the offroad dents you did ;) (I have many). R
