Husqvarna has unveiled the Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept at the recent international show in Europe. This new concept bike is packed with high-performance upgrades and bespoke aerodynamic features. However, Husqvarna has confirmed that the Vitpilen 801 Aero will not be available in India.
Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept – More Details
The Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept is a special edition roadster that features a 799cc parallel-twin engine derived from the KTM Duke 790. The bike boasts a host of custom components, including carbon fiber elements to reduce weight and improve performance. The exhaust system has been redesigned, and the bike now features Brembo GP4 racing-spec calipers for enhanced braking.
The Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept also comes with a new windshield, 17-inch spoke wheels, and a fully adjustable Ohlins suspension setup. The bike’s design is sleek and aggressive, with a focus on aerodynamics to cut down on drag and improve overall performance.
Not coming to India?
Despite its impressive features, Husqvarna has decided not to bring the Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept or a motorcycle derived from it to the Indian market. The company cited regulatory and logistical challenges as the main reasons for this decision. This could be a lost opportunity as big bikes are gaining popularity in India. However, Husqvarna remains committed to offering a range of high-performance motorcycles in India, and fans can look forward to other exciting models in the future.
The Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept is a testament to Husqvarna’s dedication to innovation and performance. While Indian riders may have to wait for a similar model, the concept bike sets the stage for future developments in the Husqvarna lineup.
Stay tuned for more updates from Husqvarna as they continue to push the boundaries of motorcycle design and performance. The Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept may not be coming to India, but it’s sure to make waves in the global motorcycle market.
