01. The lines

Seat

A low-profile seat ensures accessibility at 820mm of seat height and blends neatly into the overall design. It is covered using a mixture of high-quality materials for superior comfort and durability. A pillion grab handle is also fitted as standard.

Exterior

A unique appearance is created through the authentic mix of both classic and modern design. Lightweight and narrow bodywork curves tightly around the chassis enabling seamless rider movements while the machine's dark demeanour, rugged tyres, and protective parts like the flyscreen and skid plate ensure the Svartpilen 125 has an undeniably distinctive look.

Lights

New front and rear LED lights offer improved illumination, particularly in low-light conditions. By using the latest LED technology for advanced lighting performance and enhanced visibility, riding through urban environments is safer for both the rider and other road users. The LED positioning ring on the front light acts as a daylight running light and gives the Svartpilen a distinctive premium look.

Handlebar

Offroad style handlebars and risers are fitted together with stylish, forged aluminium triple clamps. In keeping with the minimalistic look of the authentic design, the handlebar-mounted dashboard is a large 5'' TFT display, which shows essential information like speed, fuel level, riding mode and the selected gear.

Tank

The perfectly formed, 13-litre fuel tank features a standard luggage rack, which allows riders to conveniently carry their belongings for added practicality. Contributing to the rugged look of the urban explorer, the tank cover seamlessly blends into the side panels to ensure movements on the machine are completely unrestricted. The tank is complete with an aluminium filler cap featuring the iconic Husqvarna Motorcycles logo.

02. The thrill

Exhaust

Fully redesigned and carefully assembled, the new exhaust system meets EURO 5+ regulations thanks to its double catalyser system. Made from high-strength steel, the exhaust now offers a considerable weight reduction of two kilograms when compared to the previous generation. The silencer is complete with a premium matt black finish to complement the distinctive style of the Svartpilen 125.

Single cylinder

All components are manufactured to the highest of standards to ensure controllable and confidence-inspiring braking performance in all situations.

Ride modes

Street is engaged as standard while Rain can be activated in adverse weather conditions for a less aggressive throttle response. On top a speed limiter function allows riders to set a cruising speed that will not be exceeded even with the throttle fully opened.

03. The tech

Service

A new engine layout leads to improved performance, reliability, and serviceability. All filters are now conveniently located on the same side of the engine to speed up and simplify routine maintenance. Thanks to the advanced engineering techniques used to assemble the engine, the oil, oil filter, and air filter now only need to be replaced every 10,000 kilometres after an initial oil change at 1,000 kilometres.

With a smartphone connected via Bluetooth, incoming calls can be answered, music can be played, and by using the Ride Husqvarna Motorcycles app, Turn-by-Turn instructions of the navigation can be followed on the dashboard. RCM, RemoteControl Mode, enables the rider to control the app with the handlebar buttons additionally it is the foundation for upcoming features.

TFT dashboard

A new and improved 5" TFT dashboard with a bonded glass screen shows vital information to riders. The travelling speed, fuel level, and the selected gear are all clearly displayed and visible at a glance. It is controlled by the new backlight switch cubes on the left end of the handlebar.
