wow, that really is a good looking 125cc machine! Make sure to let us know what you think in the comments!

[@patricksandeberg8184]

This might be the only 125 that I would want!

[@BikeMatters]

It is a great-looking 125!

[@stewartnorton6386]

I'm in bits UA-cam subtitles translated Svartpilen in fart pillllow 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@BikeMatters]

Haha nothing to do with us!👀

[@C64SX]

Ordered one yesterday 👍 It looks absolutely brilliant IRL.

[@BikeMatters]

Not jealous at all...👀

[@owenthomas1420]

Just sat on one today and all I can say is "what a bike!". Need to get my CBT done so I can go and buy one 😂

[@BikeMatters]

Great to hear! Get that CBT booked!

[@teggsy2165]

I was using chain saws of this brand 30-40 years ago as a tree surgeon and they were considered the best.

[@imAgr8guy2]

Superb looking bike indeed

[@l.i.t.b.m.7186]

Those it come with cafe racer version like 250 both up n down handle???

[@EITCLpool]

Love it 🇬🇧👍

[@campo2309]

Does anyone have a rough idea of what's the insurance cost difference between this 125cc and the Svartpilen 401 (373cc)? I know it depends on many factors though

[@scotty2036]

If im honest I hate motorbikes , but seen this while buying my daughter a small quadbike , and dam its good looking in person.

[@yassineposman3586]

I think this is a great competitor against Honda's cb125r

[@BikeMatters]

it will definitely be up there with the big boys in the 125c market in regards to looks and performance.

[@longlivemabuhay6279]

is this going to be release here in the philippines?

[@BikeMatters]

Have to check with your local Husqvarna/KTM dealer, we are Uk based.

[@sombathado]

Price pls

[@andreivalentinteodor3805]

Drooling on my keyboard ...

[@pBruantt]

I really hope Bajaj is able to read this message. If they are able to launch a 150cc instead of 125cc, among the 150cc segment bikes, this brand will explode the market. They don't have to make it obvious that it has a KTM engine, they should get innovative and launch a 150cc instead

[@xMel21x]

But in Europe is restricted...

[@Ada_Keles]

1m60cm can drive ?

[@mrmoon1482]

They are tiny seen one the other day looking like a grom

[@nastyham5302]

Always disliked those floating mudguard things

[@nastyham5302]

4k for a bike , has skateboard on back

[@jonathanrashleigh8771]

Beautiful but price is stupid for a tiny bike.

[@BikeMatters]

It is a stunner! Top-spec, and liquid-cooled motor, price compares comparatively against rival big-hitting 125 machines.

[@jonathanrashleigh8771]

@@BikeMatters not interested in comparisons. My point is who is buying 125 road bikes - kids or people who can’t afford real bikes. So make them cheaper.

[@BikeMatters]

​@@jonathanrashleigh8771 The Svartpilen 125 definitely isn't a bike for everyone at that price point, but then Husqvarna will spec a bike for a target audience. Those who will be buying Svartpilen 125, are people within Husqvarna's chosen target audience. People who are after a tip-tip naked 125 fully spec'd out with a healthy enough budget to get one.
A reduction in price will see the spec go down and then you lose the purpose and aim of the Svartpilen and it will just become a standard 125.
The Svartpilen hasn't been made to be a budget option, it has been made to be one of the best performing naked 125s you can get, and unfortunately, this naturally comes at a premium.
If there isn't budget there then people can look at bikes within their price range. People can take a look at the low and mid-range 125cc bikes, there are many great, more affordable options out there, just won't get quite a high spec. Some great mid-range Jap bikes, and with China bikes yes you have the cheaper air-cooled units, but then you have the likes of the new impressive liquid-cooled range from Zontes for people desperate to get to the 14.7hp limit on a tighter budget.
I can totally see where you are coming from this price for a 125 can seem high, but Husqvarna will know who they are after when making this bike, and they are not ones to want to build a standard lower budget 125. Thanks for your comments!

@@jonathanrashleigh8771 Simply what @BikeMatters just said is this bike's market isnt suit for people like you, Jonathan

[@zeduu6873]

@@jonathanrashleigh8771 and you are now saying that duke 125 isnt selling good😂😂in finland every 16yo have 125 and most of those are dukes so I dont think its problem to sell svartpilen to next generations as much as dukes😂
