Whether on paved roads or rugged terrain, this motorcycle excels in every adventure.

The bike is designed with ergonomics in mind, ensuring enhanced comfort for extended ride times. You can explore the world with the Norden 901, whether you're carrying hard luggage, bags and panniers, a pillion or both. 
The motorcycle's rear features a compact, lightweight steel trellis subframe that is robust enough to support passengers and luggage.

The Husqvarna Norden 901 boasts a Dakar Rally design and slim ergonomics, providing a low centre of gravity for balanced handling and a manageable seat height without sacrificing ground clearance. 
The fuel tank ranges around 248+ mile / 400km+, so you can set your destination without worrying about running out of gas. 
In addition, the tank's lower section protects you from dirt and debris on the road and trail. The 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels, Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tires, and wire-spoked, tubeless design makes for easy handling, comfort, and less risk of a flat tire.
 

The Norden 901 is equipped with LED and fog lights for optimal visibility, taking inspiration from the lights used on Husqvarna Factory Racing's rally machines. 
The front cowl includes an integrated LED headlight and standard fog lights, sleekly designed with a low profile to improve aerodynamics and stability at high speeds. 
A daytime running light surrounds the headlight to ensure the Norden 901 is always visible. The LED indicators provide clear signals to other road users when navigating through cities.

The optional high screen provides enhanced wind and weather protection, especially for taller riders, and reduces turbulence around the head and neck area. 
The 220 mm of travel on the WP APEX 43 mm upside-down front forks delivers exceptional performance and comfort in any environment, from tight handling on the pavement to smooth off-road riding. The WP APEX rear shock, with 215 mm of travel, is adjustable for rebound damping and spring preload to accommodate the roads you ride and the loads you carry.

The engine boasts ample power, with a maximum output of 8,000 rpm and peak torque at 6,500 rpm, providing both power and manageability, making it capable of handling any situation and destination. 
Furthermore, the Norden 901's engine is designed to be even more efficient for any tasks you have in mind, with long service intervals of 15,000 km and low fuel consumption.

For optimal performance on both paved and unpaved surfaces, the Norden 901 requires brakes that offer power and control. The Bosch ABS-controlled system ensures confident and accurate stopping on various surfaces and conditions. 
The Husqvarna branded J.Juan brake system, derived from MotoGP technology, further enhances the braking capabilities of the Norden 901.

In conclusion, the Norden 901 is a complete long-distance travel machine built to explore the world.
