A great mid size adventure bike – Ok, my thoughts on the Norden. I bought this bike because I wanted something lighter and a bit more dirt oriented than my Triumph Tiger 1200 XCA. I… Read more
test rode a lot of bikes when looking, including the CF Moto 800MT Explore (actually a very good bike), but the Norden gave me the biggest smile when riding it. I have spent a bit of money on accessories for it, like a larger rear rack, centrestand, cat delete pipe, one piece enduro seat, high front fender, handlebar risers and a Garmin Zumo XT-2 gps. After 8,000kms, I have replaced the original Pirelli Scorpion XTR tyres (very good on road, ok off road) for a set of Motoz Tractionator RallZ tyres, excellent off road, not so good on road, I probably should have gone for the Motoz Tractionator Adventures, which would be better on road. Now, problems with the bike…..zero, nada, nothing, it has been great, I have done a couple of long rides (800kms per day) and a lot of dirt/gravel roads. More intense off road isn’t something I’m interested in because I’m old, and it hurts if you fall off. Being tall (189cm/ 6’3””) has presented a couple of problems, one being standing up while riding was not great until I fitted the handlebar risers, also the enduro seat has helped being slightly taller. If you are looking for a mid size adventure bike, the Norden comes with cruise control, quick shifter, and useful rider modes, although opting for the Explorer mode is worth the cost if you do a fair bit of off road. All in all, I love this bike, more than I expected to.
