Husqvarna first unleashed the dynamic Vitpilen and Svartpilen 125 duo for the 2021 model year—and, due to the strangeness of time in the past few years, it may not seem like it was that long ago. Still, 2023 bike introductions have already started. That means two years have already passed—and it also means that Husqvarna has been hard at work on revised styling for an updated Svartpilen 125.
We’ve managed to get our hands on some spy photos of what the Husky designers have been up to, so here’s a sneak peek of what we can expect in the not-too-distant future. Probably the first thing to notice is that tiny little cowl above the headlight. Where the first-gen Svartpilen 125 simply relied on the headlight bezel styling to speak for itself, this update features a small, black cowl with a familiar shape. Look closely, and you’ll see that it almost looks like an abbreviated version of the one found on the Norden 901.
