                Pros & Cons

                • Pros
                • Cons
                • Aprilia RS 457

                  • Looks – looks sporty, aggressive and premium. Good build quality and sharp design mean it attracts a lot of attention
                  • Engine – lots of torque throughout the rev range makes commuting very easy. Quick overtakes even in a gear higher are effortless. You don't need more power.
                  • Tyres – the TVS Eurogrip Protorq Extreme tyres are fantastic both in dry and wet conditions, no complaints there
                  • Features – the TFT console is user-friendly and offers a lot of useful information

                  Husqvarna Svartpilen 401

                  • Looks properly premium with a very clean design
                  • Extremely potent engine, that’s as fun as the KTM 390 Duke
                  • Great high-speed handling
                  • Light kerb weight and feature-packed console make living with the bike an easy affair
                • Aprilia RS 457

                  • Riding posture – the clip-on handlebar is low-set and on the committed side, not the best for everyday commuting
                  • Firm rear suspension – the RS 457's rear monoshock is on the firmer side and lighter riders will be tossed around a bit when going through potholes and sharp speed breakers
                  • Reliability – the RS 457 is coming out of a factory that's never made a bike before so its reliability and how Aprilia handles its after-sales service is yet to be seen

                  Husqvarna Svartpilen 401

                  • Runs on tubed tyres because of the spoke wheels
                  • Not really a true-blue scrambler

                  Aprilia RS 457 Ownership Review
                  It is the best choice for a budget super sport bike and looks aggressive with a lot of torque and power. The twin cylinder engine is very tractable and the overall ride experience is fun! Definitely a head turner. The bike is very smooth and the engine is very responsive. The posture is a bit demanding so would avoid in traffic jams and long rides. The power is just amazing, a twist of the throttle and before you know it you are reaching triple digit speeds. This is a pure red bike and would only suggest it to those who are genuinely in need of the power upgrade and will ride the bike the way it is meant to. For beginners and clout chasers would definitely recommend to stay away from this bike.

                  Best scrambler under this category
                  The bike looks great in itself and the feel on riding it in any type of terrain is just too smooth. If you are looking for a scrambler bike in this range you get three options of re scram 440, this and triumph scrambler. But beleive me the road presence of this bike is just too good, the feel, the speed, the pickup and the mileage all are pretty awesome.

                  Loving it!
                  Honestly it's a pretty cool bike. The 2024 Svartpilen 401 has this rugged, minimalist scrambler vibe that stands out. It’s lightweight, packs enough punch for fun rides, and that quickshifter is a sweet bonus for the price. I really like how it blends urban aggression with some off-road capability, without going overboard.
