Husqvarna Norden 901 2023
On the one hand, the Husqvarna Norden 901 is a very suitable motorbike for travelling with its lavish standard equipment, but on the other hand it does not shy away from adventures with its long suspension travel, lively engine and active ergonomics. The low centre of gravity is ingenious thanks to the low-slung fuel tank, which makes life easy on and off the paved roads.
