A Husky ADV? Yes.
The rumors of a Husqvarna ADV bike were out there but there wasn’t much known. Now we know some things. Check out the Norden Concept, Husqvarna’s adventure bike. The motorcycle was revealed at EICMA 2019, and I have to say the bike is one of the more handsome ADV bikes out there.
The bike features the 901-platform that Husky has used on other motorcycles. This bike is just a concept, so you can bet that the production bike won’t be quite as sleek and sexy, but it might. Just look at Husky’s other offerings. They look like design experiments in a very good way.
All that Husqvarna said about the bike is that it would have “class-leading lightness and power delivery,” in a “versatile and accessible package,” according to RideApart. The motorcycle features a large round headlight, long-travel suspension, and Svartpilen/Vitpilen lines translated through the language of an ADV bike.
There’s also a fancy TFT screen that likely gives you access to all kinds of settings, ride modes, and maybe even smartphone connectivity. The pictures show some soft luggage, so you can expect a ton of accessories and luggage options when a production version of this bike comes around.
2WD? Why not? Got all them other gatchets. Throw a hub motor up front, eh 🙂
