2024 HUSKY NORDEN 901 REVEALED

Husqvarna has revealed that its super-popular Norden 901 adventurer tourer will get some updated performance and safety features for 2024 (such as extra traction control settings, a new exhaust system, and a new USB port and hazard warning lights), along with a new grey and yellow colour scheme. The 2024 model will be available in Australia and New Zealand from February, 2024. Here is Husqvarna Motorcycles’ recent PR, which details the 2024 model’s updates…

The machine of choice for many adventure riders, the Norden 901 retains the same proven, torquey, 889cc parallel twin engine for 2024. Together with its light steel trellis frame, WP Apex suspension and multiple ride modes, the Norden 901 continues to offer outstanding comfort, particularly on longer rides when navigating rugged and challenging landscapes.

Husqvarna Motorcycles’ lean-angle sensitive Cornering Motorcycle Traction Control (MTC) now offers 10 different levels of rear wheel slip, which can be selected when the optional Explorer Mode is engaged. With a setting to suit all riding abilities, those with more experience will enjoy drifting through turns while riders new to travel machines will benefit from confidence-inspiring traction when negotiating technical corners and unpredictable terrain.

Rounding out the new features found on the Norden 901 2024 are new USB port, the Hazard Warning lights (which can be quickly switched on in the event of an emergency), and the new exhaust system that meets Euro5+ regulations.

Underlining the premium build quality of the Norden 901, the components used on this versatile machine are all chosen for their performance and durability. The Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres, Bosch Cornering ABS, a Power Assist Slipper Clutch (PASC), and multiple ride modes combine to create the ultimate riding experience.
