02. The thrill

Single cylinder

Powering the Svartpilen 250 is a remarkable, single-cylinder SOHC engine that is engineered with fewer components, and lighter, when compared to the previous generation. Remarkably compact, the modern engine offers improved weight distribution for refined handling and produces smooth and controllable power.

Easy Shift

Easy Shift ensures all gear changes are as smooth as possible. Once the EMS registers movement on the gear lever, it momentarily limits power, which ensures smooth gear changes. For a simplified riding experience, the clutch is not needed when changing gear on the Svartpilen 250.

Brakes

The Svartpilen 250 is fitted with hydraulic ByBre brake calipers together with a 320 mm front disc and a 240 mm rear disc. A state-of-the-art Bosch ABS system ensures the highest levels of safety in varying conditions and includes a Supermoto mode that disengages the ABS at the rear wheel. All components are manufactured to the highest of standards to ensure controllable and confidence-inspiring braking performance in all situations.

Ride modes

The Svartpilen 250 is equipped with multiple electronic rider aids to improve its usability. The ride modes offer two power settings - Street and Rain. Street is engaged as standard while Rain can be activated in adverse weather conditions for a less aggressive throttle response.

Exhaust

Fully redesigned and carefully assembled, the exhaust system meets EURO 5+ regulations thanks to its double catalyser system. Made from high-strength steel, the exhaust 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 250.

03. The feeling

Frame

The steel trellis frame is fundamental to the character and agility of the Svartpilen 250. Hydro-formed tubes are neatly robot welded together to create a frame that is not only strong, but low in weight. This assembly process delivers nimble handling and detailed feedback to the rider. Specific flex characteristics are engineered into the frame and together with the WP suspension, the Svartpilen 250 offers a comfortable riding experience.

Suspension

The WP suspension on the Svartpilen 250 is manufactured with the highest levels of quality and craftsmanship. At the front, the WP APEX forks are 43mm in diameter for dynamic handling and offer 150 mm of travel. At the rear, the shock offers the same travel while its progressive spring design soaks up bumps of all sizes with ease. The shock features adjustable preload and is connected directly to the swingarm for a heightened level of rider feedback.

Ergonomics

Revised ergonomics ensure an enhanced riding experience. A slightly longer wheelbase improves stability without sacrificing agility while the 15mm lower seat height places the rider closer to the centre of gravity. Together with a revised triple clamp offset, all riders will benefit from the confidence-inspiring riding position that has been created.

Wheels and tyres

The 17" cast alloy wheels are a design highlight of the Svartpilen 250 and feature a six-spoke aero design. Offering style, strength, and stability, the wheels are robust and reliable. MRF REVZ-C tyres are fitted as they offer predictability on a wide range of surfaces.

Swingarm

To accommodate the relocated off-centre WP shock the, cast aluminium swingarm is completely redesigned. Offering carefully calculated rigidity for improved stability and predictable handling, the curvature of the swingarm not only creates a modern appearance, but also provides additional space for the silencer.
