I got my hands on vitpilen after the lockdown before this I was planning to buy duke 250 but it was delayed so I went for vitpilen and believe me i'm glad that I went for Vitpilen, it looks amazing and it has proper cafe racer looks and it is lighter than duke 250 with the kerb weight of 151 kg making it more powerful due to better power to the weight ratio.
The clip on handle bars gives you the feel of a proper cafe racer and makes the rider more engaged to the bike giving you more control over bike and better stability at higher speeds and best of all awesome cornering capabilities. You get all the features that a duke 250 gets and it has best looking led indicator which is so bright its clearly visible even on brightest sunlight.
Vitpilen 250 produces 31bhp of power as compared to duke 250 which is 30 bhp although both bikes share the same engine. If you're planning to buy a 250cc bike which is value for money just go for it. In short terms this is ktm rc 250 with no fairings.
Pros:
Powerful 250 cc single cylinder dohc engine with liquid cooling.
All led lights setup.
Gets slipper clutch.
Switchable abs(super moto mode)
Clip on handle bars gives you more control.
Inverted telescopic front forks and rear monoshock suspension by wp gives best in class stability.
Lots of power surge after 7000 rpm even at higher speeds.
Bybre disc brakes with dual channel abs gives good byte and braking is really good.
Very nice feedback from engine braking( I rarely use brakes engine braking is enough to slow down the bike).
Liquid cooling is great it never lets engine get too hot.
Tyres are good provides good grip in wet and dry conditions.
Fuel tank is 9.5 litres same as ktm rc.
Cons:
Ground clearance is very low.
Seat height is 842 mm which is same as ktm adventure series.(it's not suitable for short riders).
Some wires are visible, could have been better if it's managed well.
Panel gaps are inappropriate.
