A few photos from the roadshow event today. I test rode the Vitpilen, was impressed with the handling over the Svartpilen. There is more weight over the front end, and so much more nimble in the corners, but after an hour of riding I did feel the bars were a bit 'wristy'. The Husqvarna guys showed me some options to improve the handling on my Svartpilen. The bar risers can be repositioned forward and the rear shock can increase the preload thus raising the back end.
The two concept bikes were really impressive in the flesh. See the pics attached...
