Husqvarna Norden 901 Adventure Bike

With the EICMA (Motorcycle Show hosted annually in Milan) in full swing, the world’s motorcycle manufacturers are there to showcase their up and coming releases for the year ahead. Husqvarna have unveiled the extremely rad looking Norden 901, unfortunately just a concept at present, but it’s safe to assume that Husqvarna has plans to put this adventure bike into production. Based on the 899cc parallel-twin platform in the 790 Adventure from KTM, the neo-retro styled Norden 901 is designed to tackle long-distance travel across all kinds of terrain. The adventure-tourer is equipped with WP suspension and runs on a 21-inch front wheel and a 19-inch rear wheel. Other details include dual TFT color screens, and custom soft luggage fitted with a bevy of futuristic-looking luggage racks.
