Husqvarna Norden 901 2024

Husqvarna Norden 901 2024

On the one hand, the Husqvarna Norden 901 with its lavish standard equipment is a very suitable bike for travelling, but on the other hand, with its lengthy travel, lively engine and active ergonomics, it does not shy away from adventures. The low centre of gravity is ingenious thanks to the low tank, which makes life on and off the beaten track easy.

Great engine with high practicality

Great engine reponsiveness

Linear torque curve

Hardly any vibrations in the saddle

High-quality electronics package

Height of travelling comfort

Stable, sporty suspension

Accessible yet exciting character

Good wind and weather protection for the lower half of the body

Tough as nails

Unpleasant heat development in the calf area at low speeds

Unsteady engine running after a cold start

Engine dies off quite easily due to low flywheel mass

Due to the width of the seat, the bike is quite high even with lengthy legs

Poor wind protection and turbulence on the helmet and upper body

Rear brake is difficult to modulate

KTM RC 8C 2024

The RC 8C is a riding machine that not only leads professionals to fast lap times, but also puts a grin on the face of the average rider. Light-footed and precise like an elf on rails, it shows its strength particularly on fast-moving and technically demanding courses. Even though the engine has easy play thanks to the low overall weight and performs well at low revs, as a Horsepower-spoilt superbike rider I would like to see it wind out a bit more aggressively. Nevertheless, for most people it will probably be the key to a lot of riding pleasure and fast lap times without any conversion work.
