Husqvarna has finally introduced the production version of the Norden 901 concept it unveiled in 2019. It's an adventure-focused, off-road-ready motorcycle that relies on components supplied by parent company KTM to take the Swedish brand into a new segment of the market.
Visually, very little has changed in the Norden 901's transition from a concept to a production model. What we saw at the EICMA show in 2019 is essentially what we'll get when the motorcycle begins arriving at dealerships in select market in November 2021. It's an evolution of the KTM 890 Adventure, according to Motorcycle News, but it stands out with a brand-specific design defined by more upright fairing and a single round LED headlight. It features a generous amount of ground clearance and skid plates that protect the mechanical components......
Power for the Norden 901 comes from an 889-cubic-centimeter two-cylinder engine that delivers 105 horsepower and 74 pound-feet of torque. Here again, technology plays a big role: Husqvarna fitted a ride-by-wire throttle and an Easy Shift system that lets users shift the six-speed transmission up or down without using the clutch. And, there's a five-gallon fuel tank that gives the motorcycle a maximum riding range of about 250 miles, which is more than many electric cars sold new in 2021. You'll need it to use the 901 the way it was intended.
Husqvarna's Norden 901 will disembark on American shores as a 2022 model. Pricing starts at $13,990
