Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Husqvarna Norden 901 Expedition 2023
The basic model of the Husqvarna Norden already has a lot to offer, but the new "Expedition" manages to go one better with its improved chassis and additional equipment. It is as versatile as a Swiss army knife. There is hardly a task it doesn't seem up to. Precise and sporty on the road, and equally robust and confidence-building off-road. A real do-it-all machine! Considering the extensive additional equipment, not least the price seems to be in order compared to the basic North. With a view to the even sportier KTM 890 Adventure R, it should be noted that Husqvarna also remains somewhat more faithful to the idea of comfort with the Expedition.

It's impressive how well the bike manages the balancing act between on- and off-road, doing exactly what a touring enduro should be able to do, or what you still want to do with a touring enduro. And it does so with a degree of maturity that is astonishing for a new model and shows that Triumph has done its homework and has sensibly further developed the already underrated Tiger 800. Even if some die-hard Tiger fans may miss the now less pronounced, typical whistle of the three-cylinder. The question of whether the Tiger 900 Rally Pro is ready for the road can only be answered with a "when do you want to go again?
