Husqvarna Norden 901 creeps closer: New bike spotted testing in two different guises We’ve known about the Norden for a while now but it was always assumed there would be just one model. However, new spyshots emerging suggest there might be two models: an off-road focused machine and an on-road focused variant, just like the KTM 890 models it shares DNA with. If you’re not familiar with Husky’s current methods, they take the bare bones of a model from sister company KTM’s range and they give it their own blue and white twist. They’ve done it with the smaller capacity Vitpilen and Svartpilens, so now their attention has turned to the bigger bikes in the company’s range. The Norden 901 is based on the new KTM 890 Adventure, sharing the same engine, mainframe, suspension, wheels and fuel tanks. Husqvarna have then added different bodywork, and likely tweaked many of the settings under the slightly retro looking fairings. Until now we’ve only seen models with the low front mudguard and road orientated tyres, as seen on the 890 Adventure. However, in these pictures you can clearly see the high mudguard and off-road tyres from the 890 Adventure R fitted. There are also two different types of pannier rack fitted, suggesting there will be both hard and soft luggage available from the outset. There’s been no word from Husqvarna since they confirmed the 901 was going into production but we expect the finished bike to be unveiled later this year and to arrive in dealers by early 2022… Good times for Husqvarna dealers! husqvarna-moto Please make no attempt to imitate the illustrated riding scene.
