BMW R nineT Urban G/S versus Husqvarna Vitpilen 701

Conclusion - what sticks

Without question, Urban G/S is beguiling. Our tester Markus let himself be carried away to the remark that in his eyes it is currently the most beautiful motorcycle on the market. It is also a typical boxer child and high-quality workmanship from front to back. For those who do not constantly commute between Germany and Mongolia, the Urban G/S may even be better suited than a normal GS, because the Urban G/S is handier and weighs significantly less.
 
The test bike was provided to us by Bergmann & Söhne in Pinneberg for this test. There is exactly this bike as a demonstrator and is looking forward to a lot of test riders. So, let's go to Pinneberg near Hamburg!

Conclusion - what gets stuck

The Vitpilen is a small Rabauke, but one that never lets you down. Provided that it can be afforded, the question remains: do you want to afford it? We at motorradtest.de agree: yes! Five times thumbs up.
She is the ideal companion for the things that are so fun in life. And the most beautiful of them are those that evade all logic.
Only what we Germans like most about buying would be the principle. Because the Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 is a Naked Bike, which naturally limits the suitability for touring, which is already opposed by the tank, which only has a capacity of 12 liters. But, you know that beforehand. Like that ice makes you fat, you shouldn't watch "Bauer sucht Frau" on TV or that blowing up four liters of the finest super on 100 kilometers is ecologically simple crap just for fun.
We now find that we have satisfied political correctness, and now we are finally going to the trader and taking a test drive. ;)

The test machine was kindly provided by Heller & Soltau.

Small addendum: Vitpilen is Swedish and translates as "White Arrow". Why? We don't know either.
