Husqvarna has revealed a concept version of the Vitpilen 801 naked bike, featuring weight reduction through carbon fibre components and custom parts focused on aerodynamics and performance. The bike likely retains the 799cc parallel-twin engine from the KTM 790, delivering 104bhp and 88Nm, with the performance expected to match the standard Vitpilen model. Designed for riders prioritising functionality and innovation, the Vitpilen 801 concept emphasises Husqvarna's commitment to high-performance naked bikes with advanced engineering.
Husqvarna Vitpilen 801 Aero Concept: Details
This street bike introduces upgrades that increase its speed, power, and functionality. Stock parts, including the wheels and paint scheme, have been replaced with custom components. Carbon fibre elements reduce kerb weight, and a new exhaust system enhances performance.
A custom full system replaces the original exhaust with white-painted header pipes routed differently from the standard model. This setup aims to increase top-end horsepower while adjusting low-end torque. The pipes end in a centrally mounted under-seat silencer integrated into the rear cowl, replacing the rear light cluster.

The braking system includes a Brembo GP4 unit for enhanced performance. The rear brake uses a disc plate typically seen in racing bikes to reduce drag.
Husqvarna is expected to reveal the production version of this bike in 2025.
