Husqvarna Vitpilen 401 Aero, Vitpilen 701 concepts shown at EICMA
The Husqvarna Vitpilen 401 Aero concept is simply stunning...!
Along with their two new production-ready bikes, Husqvarna have also unveiled two new concept bikes at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan. First up is the Vitpilen 401 Aero, which is Husqvarna?s interpretation of how a modern faired sportsbike should look like. While it shares its chassis and engine with the production-spec Vitpilen 401, the Aero also gets an aerodynamic fairing, which gives it oodles of café racer style. Its silver/black paintjob looks terrific and the riding position is sportier and more committed than what you?d find on the production Vitpilen 401.
?There?s always been a fascination for faired bikes and for the guys it?s been a real pioneering approach to add fairings to a naked bike to experience aerodynamics and so on, and that?s the approach we took with the Aero. Not in a scientific way, really looking for performance, but more the emotional way to suggest as if the wind or airflow would have sculpted the fairing of the bike,? says Maxime Thouvenin, Creative Lead - Transportation Design, Husqvarna. ?More than in a naked bike, on the Aero you sit inside the machine and not on it anymore, and it creates a very different riding experience, as well as a very different visual impact not just from the outside, but also from the inside,? he adds.
