Husqvarna Vitpilen 250

Husqvarna Vitpilen 250 Overview

The Vitpilen 250 suits buyers after a cafe-racer-style bike with more performance than a small-capacity commuter. Its 30.57 bhp output is well above the Yamaha XSR 155’s 18.1 bhp, while its 164 kg kerb weight is lower than the Triumph Thruxton 400’s 190 kg. A six-speed gearbox, quickshifter and traction control add useful equipment, and dual-channel ABS helps prevent both wheels from locking during hard braking.

The trade-offs are worth considering for everyday use: its 820 mm seat is taller than the XSR 155’s 810 mm and the Thruxton 400’s 795 mm, and the claimed 37 kmpl is below the Yamaha’s claimed 46 kmpl. There is no under-seat storage, and phone connectivity and navigation are optional. It is priced above the XSR 155 but below the Thruxton 400, placing it between them on price as well as engine performance.

• 30.57 bhp gives it more power than the Yamaha XSR 155.
• Dual-channel ABS helps prevent both wheels from locking during hard braking.
• Quickshifter lets you change gears without using the clutch.
• Street and Rain modes let you select between two engine settings.
• A 13.5-litre tank and distance-to-empty display help track fuel use.

Best for: Buy it if you want a well-equipped cafe-racer-style bike with more power than the Yamaha XSR 155 and can manage its tall seat and lower claimed mileage.
