SWM Gran Milano in an individual test

Italian-Chinese friendship

The SWM Gran Milano offers two models in one. MOTORRAD has tested Solo Cafe Racer and Biposto.

So today, so tomorrow. The choice is yours, regardless of whether you are a solo cafe racer or a Biposto S.WM Gran Milano are two models in one. All conversion parts for the next trip as a one or two-seater are included. A 445 cm³, air-cooled single cylinder is used as the beating heart of the SWM. From Shineray halls in China, it arrives, along with other parts, in the former Husqvarna production facility in Italy. There, its displacement of 400 cm³ increases by a couple of shot glasses, has an injection flanged on it and thus masters the Euro 3 emissions threshold. SWM does not yet offer ABS and emission values ​​in accordance with the Euro 4 standard, but both should be standard from 2017. But now back to the present. A good 170 kilograms full of fuel – with 20 liters your fuel keg holds a lot – the Gran Milano weighs on the scales.

The gears quickly slip through the gearbox

The seating arrangement fits, even if people like the author seem slightly out of place for a long time. But if you don’t break the 185-centimeter mark, you’ll find yourself perfectly integrated at the SWM Gran Milano. The single turns up with relish, feels right at home in medium speeds. The gears slip through the transmission in flight, and the brake can be used to reduce speed. Not perfect, but far from lousy, the multi-adjustable spring elements scan the road relief. If it weren’t for the tires. The roughly profiled tires from Golden Tire look important, but screw up almost every clean line.

The SWM Gran Milano actually puts you in a good mood on the smallest streets. The single in their midst spreads pure joie de vivre, splurges splendidly from the powerful double trumpets. In addition to a recommended tire change, what is ultimately missing for a long-term relationship is 5490 euros. Even retro hipsters have to swallow for a moment.
