At the heart of the new Vitpilen 801 is the DOHC, 799 cc parallel-twin engine, weighing just 114 lb (52 kg) without oil. Its compact build and light weight underline the performance of the engine, which features active crankcase evacuation and a semi-dry sump lubrication system to create long service intervals of 15,000 km.

Multiple state-of-the-art electronic rider aids add additional layers of customization to the Vitpilen 801. A choice of four ride modes alters the engine performance, with Street, Sport and Rain as pre-set and the customizable Dynamic mode, ensuring maximum rideability on the road ahead. Together with Easy Shift, cornering ABS, and cornering MTC, the street riding experience is exceptional in all conditions.

With the engine acting as a stressed member of the chromium-molybdenum steel frame, overall weight is kept to a minimum, resulting in an agile, yet stable feeling on the roads. Enhancing the connection between the Vitpilen 801 and the asphalt, easily adjustable WP APEX suspension offers 140 mm of fork travel and 150 mm of shock travel, in addition to the cast alloy 17” wheels that are fitted with Michelin Road 6 tires for the highest levels of grip.

Completing the premium build of the new Vitpilen 801 is an extensive list of components and technical hardware. For highly effective stopping power, a J.Juan brake system, together with Bosch ABS, delivers confidence-inspiring braking performance. Providing maximum stability under heavy braking is the Power Assist Slipper Clutch (PASC), which also maximizes traction under hard acceleration.
