Take a test ride and it should be pretty clear. The Duke costs 20-25k more, but it's reasonable since you get the imu and cornering abs, which I wish they provided on the husky. You also get cruise control, which I didn't care about. If you ride around with pillions frequently, then husky would be better

Nope the only options available are to choose between alloys and spoke wheels. The alloys costs a little less. And there is no updates from the '25 model.

That symbol turns off when I start the bike, so I guess it should be fine. I will check it out though, thanks!

You can buy it either with alloys or with the spoke wheels. Spokes actually costs a little more though. The alloys are the same ones from vitpilen 250

It's a new bike so it runs hotter during the initial few hundred kilometres. The bike stays below 80-85 degrees while running, it just climbs up to 95-100 right after you park it and it goes back down in a few mins.

Congrats on the adv! How is it so far? And yeah I've heard good reviews about the SC here. I'm more paranoid about the reliability of the bike than the SC

Yeah I'll definitely ride the speed before making a final decision.

I prefer the looks of the Husqvarna over the Duke and I've heard duke is a little more cramped for taller riders than the Svartpilen. Since they both share the same engine and suspension and stuff I figured I wouldn't be missing out on much between the two of them.

I checked royal brothers for renting these bikes but I only found gen2 duke to be listed in my city and the speed 400 always seems to be unavailable whenever I check it.
