Husqvarna Mobility is expanding the Svartpilen range for 2027 with a more exclusive variant. The Svartpilen 801 SE carries the SE designation for Style Edition and sets itself apart from the base model through a distinctive colorway and additional standard equipment. Technically, the SE version is based on the Svartpilen 801 that was revised in 2024, when the model transitioned from a single-cylinder to a parallel-twin engine. Sales through authorized Husqvarna dealers began in spring 2026, according to the manufacturer.
What Is New on the Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 SE 2027?
The Svartpilen 801 SE differs from the standard model in two areas: aesthetics and standard equipment. Husqvarna has chosen dark green accents on the tank and front fender, deliberately departing from the existing black-and-silver scheme of the base model. Husqvarna describes the look as minimal yet impactful, establishing a distinct identity within the Svartpilen lineup.
In terms of equipment, the SE version comes with two features that are only available as options on the base model: cruise control and Easy Shift. Easy Shift is Husqvarna’s bidirectional quickshifter, enabling clutchless upshifts and downshifts. The cruise control is designed to improve comfort on longer rides. Both systems are fitted as standard on the SE.
What Engine Does the Svartpilen 801 SE Have?
Power comes from the familiar LC8c parallel twin with 799 cc displacement. The liquid-cooled two-cylinder with DOHC valve actuation and four valves per cylinder produces 105 hp (77 kW) at 9,250 rpm and a maximum torque of 87 Nm at 8,000 rpm. The compression ratio is 12.5:1. Fuel delivery is handled by Dell’Orto throttle bodies with 46 mm diameter, controlled via a ride-by-wire system.
The powerplant is also known from the KTM 790 Duke and KTM 790 Adventure and serves as a stressed member of the chassis in the Svartpilen. Power is transmitted through a six-speed gearbox with the standard Easy Shift quickshifter. The cable-operated clutch features an anti-hopping and slipper function (PASC). The secondary drive runs via a 520 X-ring chain.
How Is the Svartpilen 801 SE Chassis Set Up?
The chassis is built around a chrome-molybdenum steel trellis frame with an aluminum subframe. At the front, a WP Apex USD fork with 43 mm stanchion diameter provides 140 mm of travel and is adjustable in compression and rebound damping. At the rear, a directly linked WP Apex shock absorber offers 150 mm of travel with adjustable rebound damping and spring preload. A WP steering damper is included as standard.
The 17-inch cast aluminum wheels in 3.5-inch front and 5.5-inch rear sizes are fitted with Pirelli MT 60 RS tires in 120/70-17 front and 180/55-17 rear dimensions. The braking system is supplied by J.Juan, featuring radially mounted four-piston calipers on 300 mm dual discs at the front and a single-piston caliper on a 240 mm disc at the rear. The Bosch 9.3 ABS system operates with cornering sensitivity and also offers a Supermoto mode.
What Electronics Does the Svartpilen 801 SE Offer?
The SE comes standard with three ride modes: Street, Rain and Sport. It also includes cornering-sensitive traction control (Cornering Motorcycle Traction Control) and cornering ABS. A standard connectivity unit allows smartphone pairing for turn-by-turn navigation, phone calls and music control. Additional standard features include a hazard warning switch on the handlebar, a USB-C charging port and an electronic immobilizer.
An optional Dynamic Pack is available for the Svartpilen 801 SE, priced at $470 USD (approximately €401) in the United States. This package adds a fourth ride mode (Dynamic), adjustable throttle response, nine-level traction control, five-level wheelie height control (plus deactivation), and engine brake control. Husqvarna calls the latter Motor Slip Regulation, which is also available separately for $115 USD (approximately €98) and offers ten adjustment levels.
What Accessories Are Available for the Svartpilen 801 SE?
In addition to the Dynamic Pack, Husqvarna offers an Akrapovič slip-on exhaust that can be installed as a plug-and-play solution without further modifications. The price is $1,210 USD (approximately €1,032). For riders seeking more comfort and legroom, an ergo seat is available that sits approximately 19 mm higher than the standard seat, priced at $165 USD (approximately €141).
What Are the Key Dimensions and Weights?
The wheelbase measures 1,476 mm, the steering head angle is 24.5 degrees and trail is 99 mm. Husqvarna lists the seat height at 838 mm in the US spec sheet. The fuel tank holds 14 liters. The curb weight (ready to ride) is 191 kg (421 lbs). The contoured tank shrouds are designed to provide extensive knee grip, while the tapered seat facilitates easy mounting and dismounting as well as freedom of movement while riding.
How Much Does the Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 SE 2027 Cost?
The list price for the Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 SE 2027 in the United States is $10,799 USD (approximately €9,210). An additional freight charge of $750 USD (approximately €640) applies in the US. A European price had not been officially announced at the time of publication.
The Svartpilen 801 SE thus positions itself above the base model and targets buyers who want to combine the minimalist scrambler style of the lineup with a more exclusive colorway and enhanced standard equipment. Technically, the SE shares all essential components with the standard Svartpilen 801, which has been on the market since its 2024 revision with the LC8c twin and updated design. Within the current Husqvarna model range, the SE variant complements the mid-range street segment alongside the Vitpilen 801.
