Escape the ordinary. All-new for 2024, the Vitpilen and Svartpilen ranges are simplistic and modern, embracing the Swedish heritage and over a century of innovation. Refined power, light weight components, sporty dynamics, and exceptional build quality are combined to create an unmistakably pure riding experience. These machines invite riders to escape the monotonies of urban life in quintessentially sophisticated style.
The time has come to do away with the boring parts of your day. Disrupt your approach to commuting and the world around you. On the new Vitpilen models, with their modern suite of updated electronics, adjustable suspension and sophisticated styling, you can turn your daily movements from something mundane, to something you can’t live without.
For 2024, the Vitpilen 401 is an all-new generation machine. A new, steel-trellis frame and cast aluminium swingarm, together with revised ergonomics, improve agility for a heightened level of rider feedback and a more engaging riding experience. Powered by a lighter engine, which produces optimal torque from down low in the RPM range, it ensures controllable power on demand. Complete with multiple electronic rider aids, adjustable WP suspension, and Bluetooth connectivity, the Vitpilen 401 can be fully customised for optimal on-road performance.
New and improved for 2024:
- Updated single-cylinder engine, now displacing 399cc instead of the previous 373cc
- The engine received a new, smaller cylinder head with a larger valve cover, a simpler valve cover gasket for easier maintenance, new camshafts providing more valve lift, and a more efficient cooling system.
- The gearbox has the same gear ratios as the previous generation, but it has been updated with an optimized shift drum and improved fork pins
- The rear shock is now offset to the right side, a change to accommodate the larger airbox while also reducing seat height by a half inch to 32.3 inches
- The electronics package includes Street and Rain engine modes, lean-sensitive traction control with three levels (Street, Rain, and Off), plus a speed limiter function that also serves as a cruise control system. A 5-inch TFT displays the electronic settings, while also offering smartphone connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation
- Adjustable 43 mm WP USD Open cartridge front fork
- The brakes are supplied by ByBre, with a single radial-mount four-piston caliper and 320 mm disc up front, and a rear 240 mm disc with a floating two-piston caliper. A two-channel Bosch 9.3MP ABS system comes standard, including cornering function and a Supermoto mode that turns off rear wheel ABS.
- Superior paint finish with overcoated decals for a premium aesthetic
- Inclusion of the Standard Easy Shift system for smoother gear changes
- New LED lighting, self-canceling turn signals, new switchgear, forged aluminum pegs, and revised mirrors.
- Utilization of 17” cast wheels, Michelin Power 6 tires
- Improved ground clearance now at 177 mm
- Reduced rider seat height at 820 mm
- Expanded fuel tank capacity to 13.5 liters
- Overall seat length increased by 100mm
