I was initially negative to the Norden, especially because of the weight. But I was looking at it from a wrong perspective. I had my KTM/Husky glasses on and I was expecting something groundbreaking and very performance oriented. This seems to be a softer, less performance oriented 890 that loves to travel. I think I get it now, cool.
@KnoxArmour2 жыл бұрын
Yes, you definitely need to try it to understand it, I was personally blown away at how well the weight is masked and became very confident on it. I think it probably is less hard nosed in comparison to a KTM bike, but I don't think its lost anything in that, and gained some abilities in other ways. Thanks, Aaron KNOX

I do around 70/30 commuting/off road, making the comfort of the Norden my preferred choice. Did I mention style, yes I did. 890 for a different kind of rider, but still a great bike.

Nice bike and torque is the same as a 990 - peak power is down only 8-10 though that doesn't matter to me - but weight is 450 lb so only 10 lb less. The KTM 890 Adv R is 40-45 lb lighter than a 990 so where did the extra weight come from over the KTM? I can also go compare side by side in specs but you'd know off the top of your head. Do they both have center stands? Norden has tank guards but look very light aluminum, and also has aux lights but those are 'light'. Maybe the suspension components and other comfort features, I know little things add up and is likely worth it. I'm trying to think what else is significant enough weight to make up 30-35 lbs over the KTM version. One day I'll probably buy one but hard to when the 990 is so close in weight and has more power/sound and to me even looks. The only reason I can think of now is nearly 50% better fuel economy - 63 mpg vs 43 mpg and that's a massive improvement plus even lower c of g. I understand even the 790 KTM can out-accelerate a 990 up to a pretty high speed though unsure a 'within 10 lb but less hp' 901 would as well. The 890 KTM version certainly would. Suspension's probably better given new suspension technology since 2012 and surely a decade of development has improved things. So they're better in a few ways but not sure if it's enough to justify selling such a legendary bike as the 990 developed for Dakar.

Thanks Kent! I think the lower parts are quite rugged and similar to the 890 adventure which are very rugged at the lower gas tanks.

@@forestmotoadventures of course they are, I've had mine for 10 years and have had no issues (2012 990 Adventure), performance AND reliability. If it wasn't built with reliability in mind I'd have had frames crack, electronics fail and engines leak or break. I was told they are hard to maintain, and this one is hard to get at stuff for an oil change for instance, and that they're high maintenance....except they're not high maintenance AND they don't break or mine hasn't. I just change the oil and one valve check. But anyway you're free to keep stereotyping every European bike that way.

Does this bike require premium fuel and full synthetic oil?

It should run fine on E10 fuel and the recommended oil by Husqvarna. Thanks Aaron Knox
