    I'm mostly a motorcycle newbie researching a first bike for general purpose (running errands, commuting, recreational riding), but know I need an upright (no sport bikes) position for comfort. I keep coming back to the Svartpilen 401. Despite my lack of previous knowledge, I was encouraged that you guys came up with the same comparison list as the spreadsheet I have, although I compared to the $5499 390 Duke instead of the 390 Adventure ($6199). I also had the Suzuki GW250 ($4099) and Honda CB300R ($4949) on my list initially, as they were in a similar price range, but dismissed them as they were significantly less powerful than the others. Jumping to the next larger size for those two manufacturers came at a couple thousand dollar premium ($7000-$9000+).

I'm not into Supersport looks or touring, but wao, is a bit rugged with those tires and I can go on my hybrid dort roads, since I'll do mostly freeway, but there's a shortcut at work that is all dirt and I could save 4 miles and 6 minutes by going that route.

Im an open minded older dude (61) who wanted something quick and nimble to go along with my Kong sized VTX1800 and the 401 fits the bill perfectly. It reminds me of my old buell xb9, but runs much cooler.....is lighter and more nimble and has many more great features. (also a steal at $5600) The 401 is not only a perfect beginner bike, but its also a great second bike for older more experienced riders. More fun than a barrel of monkeys!

I believe it was called a 400, deep-burgundy tank with huge chrome circles on either side of tank. As we road through the years our leathers would rub against tank enlarging the chrome circles.
    Am I mechanically inclined? No. My buddy Dave Craghill use to always say to me, when I had any trouble on the trails...."Richard, start with simple." He had me up and running in minutes. I can only imagine what fantastic bikes they build today. I would buy one in an instant!

It can handle it but it's clearly not going to be nearly as comfortable and smooth as a bigger bike... which is in turn not going to be nearly so fun or nimble. It's all a compromise after all but I think the Svart 401 offers a lot of flexibility for not much sacrifice.

    I bought a Svartpilen 401 and I'm very happy with it BUT I still think the best beginner bike is the 390 Duke. The Duke is cheaper, lighter, has a lower seat height, is better in corners, has more ground clearance, currently has more accessories (original and alternative Chinese), and equips the full color TFT display with KTM My Ride (pretty awesome in the 2020 model). I only bought the Husky because of the style and the light offroad capabilities of the Pirellis... and because I already had the Duke

      I've had both. The Duke is a smarter and even superior buy IMHO for a lot of reasons I already posted, but the Svartpilen has that scrambler look if you are into it and the dual purpose Pirellis. If you can reach the seat, the Husky also has more comfotable/less aggresive ergonomics

      Comparing to what line?
      In it's class, the Husky is one of the most expensive.
      390 duke is less than 6 grand
      Cb500f is less than 7
      Yammer hammer has their Mt-03 for 5ish
      But when it boils down to it, the way Husky took the 390 platform and transformed it into such a razer sharp ride and elegant bike. It's worth the premium imo.
      Also it might be different in the US but here it's about 7 too. Not being combative just generally curious what class of bikes were you comparing it to?

    I Tried a used 2018 model and I'm metric 1,78 meter tall or short 😊 but I want a tall bike like a dual sport and this bike gave me that feel. Ton of fun and it gave me sense of riding an old school scrambler and even a dual sport, because of the seat and the handlebars and ofcourse the sound. It has the looks of something you could find in a barn from the 40's or 50's or if you put spikes on the body it would look strait out of a Mad Max movie.
    I am a returning rider and haven't been riding for many years but this bike felt as easy as riding a mountain bike. It felt great for cruising or commuting and dirt roads maybe not real dirt tracks. The suspension is super nice, excactly what I would like in a bike. I haven't tried a Duke 390 but peolpe say it's hard and set up for race, while the Svartpilen is set up for city riding with pot holes. I am not into that low seat hight is good for beginnners because, that means you have less overview of the traffic ahead. Just learn to have one foot down:)
    SO YES best beginner bike, but is it a bike that I would like to have for 5 years? Maybe I would go for SV 650 :) or do as many the MT07 the popular vote😉
