Husqvarna is now a brand of the KTM group, which has opened up previously unsuspected horizons for a historically Swedish coat of arms. Dirt roads are no longer an exclusive route for him since the Svartpilen and other Vitpilen arrived in the concessions. But here, we are completely crossing the Rubicon since we are talking about a custom…
As is often the case with this type of subject, nothing is official, but as nothing is denied either, we give free rein to our imagination. That being said, it is well known that there is no smoke without fire, especially since the rumor is coming fromIndia, an emerging country that would be keen on this type of model.
At Husqvarna, we have unchecked the arrows under the Swedish name to identify the range. We respect this tradition with Blapilen, or the blue arrow, which brings back memories to a generation when they were children... And it would therefore be a custom.
Husqvarna heading towards a new horizon?
The model would of course include the essential elements of Svartpilen et Vitpilen, but enhanced with cruiser flavor. The designed model is closely derived from the Swedish roadster, from which it could borrow the tank, practically identical, and the frame, simply revised in geometry and proportions, with the rear subframe significantly lower.
The same goes for the engines: from an economic point of view, it would be reasonable to expect two versions, one of 401 for the Asian market and another of 701 for the European market, if all this is confirmed. News which, as mentioned, has nothing official yet, but which for the moment has not even been denied either by Husqvarna nor by KTM. Just wait as suggested InSella.it hoping that, in this strategy, the northern hemisphere is not forgotten...
