Husqvarna Norden 901 Expedition

From a press release issued by Husqvarna Motorcycles:

Exceptionally capable travel machine offers an unparalleled riding experience to all global explorers
Husqvarna Mobility is proud to unveil its 2025 Norden 901 Expedition. Several technical refinements can be found on this latest version of the mid-class travel motorcycle, which features an updated and distinctive livery to underline the brand’s continued development of this incredible machine.

Advanced riders take advantage of the updated Slip Adjuster, which is part of the Cornering Motorcycle Traction Control (MTC). Offering ten settings, riders can select a level based on their ability and the terrain ahead. The system works by determining how much the rear wheel can drift when exiting turns, as well as allowing the front wheel to be lifted over obstacles.

For added convenience and a safer riding experience no matter the adventure, new mirrors, a hazard light warning system, and a USB-C charging port are all perfectly positioned. Additionally, the Norden 901 Expedition is equipped with a revised exhaust system to allow the parallel-twin engine to breathe more freely while meeting EURO 5+ regulations.

Ensuring the toughest terrain can be mastered with confidence, the Norden 901 Expedition features WP XPLOR suspension. Fully adjustable in terms of compression, rebound, and preload, in addition to offering 240 mm of travel, the suspension allows every rider to create a customised set-up based on their preferences.

An extensive list of Technical Accessories is fitted to the machine to ensure long days of exploration deliver maximum enjoyment, from sunrise to sunset. The heated grips and seat provide instant warmth for early morning starts and colder climates while the Touring Windshield deflects wind around the rider, particularly at higher speeds, to reduce fatigue. A Side Bag Set at the rear of the machine provides up to 36 litres of storage capacity to keep all essential travelling equipment safe and secure.
The Norden 901 Expedition continues to be powered by a highly efficient and reliable 889 cc parallel-twin engine. Producing 105 hp and 100 Nm of torque, the powerplant provides a smooth and controllable power delivery for total control both on and offroad. With the engine acting as a stressed member of the steel trellis frame to reduce weight and create a more compact overall design, this engineering technique also aids in the agility and stability of this exceptional travel machine.
In front of the handlebars, a glare and scratch-resistant 5” TFT display clearly shows essential information including the current speed, fuel consumption, and water temperature. Travel enthusiasts are encouraged to download the Ride Husqvarna Motorcycles app onto their smartphone and pair it with the machine’s Connectivity Unit using Bluetooth. The app features Turn-by-Turn+ navigation, which includes real-time traffic information, and all directions are shown on the screen. The Connectivity Unit also lets riders control music selection, make and receive calls, and adjust the volume using the handlebar-mounted buttons.
