Husqvarna Norden 901 2022

Husqvarna Norden 901 2022

During the test in the USA, the Husqvarna was exposed to probably the toughest test conditions. The tour led through deserts, up high mountains and through scorching hot valleys. Highways as well as hectic city traffic had to be negotiated. In the end, the Norden 901 proved to be a likeable, reliable and thoroughly successful adventure motorbike that is a pleasure to travel with.

Great engine with high practicality

Great engine response

Linear rev range

Hardly any vibrations in the saddle

High-quality electronics package

High level of travel comfort

Pleasantly tuned chassis

Accessible but at the same time exciting character

Good wind and weather protection

Tough

Reliable even on long tours

Unpleasant heat development in the calf area at low speeds

Unsteady engine running after cold start

Low flywheel mass, keeps dying off

BMW K 1600 GT 2019

BMW K 1600 GT 2019

Extremely cultivated straight-six engine with huge torque and plenty of power - but without any willingness to use force, simply a power unit of the highest sovereignty. Agile and nimble despite a live weight of 339 kg (fully fuelled). With Dynamic ESA, DTC, ABS Pro and shift assist, it is sporty and safe to drive.

Pleasant, completely relaxed seating position

excellent electronics from traction control to semi-active suspension

ABS Pro

shift assistant

much sportier to drive than the dimensions suggest.

Cockpit already looks a little outdated in contrast to the built-in technology
