Bike Of The Day: Yellow Arrow By Gas & Retro

Gas & Retro customs, based in Slovenia, has created a customized version of the Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 called the “Yellow Arrow”.

The Yellow Arrow stands out due to its yellow body parts, which have been custom-built by Gas & Retro. The most notable addition is the chunky yellow headlight mask, featuring faux winglets and dynamic LED indicators on either side. While these winglets do not offer any downforce, they add an extra special touch to the design.

Other customizations include yellow radiator shrouds, seat cowl, belly pan, and a custom mesh radiator guard, making the naked bike look quite muscular. Additionally, there are red accents near and under the seat, as well as on the aftermarket lever protectors, fork caps, and fork cartridge.

In addition to its eye-catching design, Gas & Retro wanted the Yellow Arrow to perform well in corners. To achieve this, the front suspension has been upgraded to fully-adjustable Showa BFF forks, replacing the stock WP units. The high-end forks are complemented by equally high-end dual-disc brakes with Brembo M50 calipers and a Brembo RCS master cylinder.

No changes were made to its  692cc, single-cylinder engine which is capable of producing 74 horsepower.
