Is the Husqvarna Norden 901 a new standard for ADV bikes?
Does Husqvarna's new 2022 Norden 901 due this November in North America live up to the hype and set a new standard in adventure touring?

2022 Royal Enfield Himalayan Review and Updates
Royal Enfield's 2022 Himalayan adventure dual-sport bike leads the charge in offering fun, wallet friendly value with even more features this year. It's great when a company listens to their customers. In the past several years Royal Enfield's 411cc, 24hp Himalayan has seen regular updates and changes from the factory largely based on rider feedback. From the addition of switchable ABS to improved shifting, the 2022 Himalayan upgrades some past features and gives us a newly integrated spin on navigation.

Did Kawasaki nail it with the KLR650 reboot?
Kawasaki’s 2018 cancellation of the KLR650 really ruffled some fans’ feathers. Kawasaki came back a few years later with a host of new improvements to their much beloved 650 thumper. Some look at the bike and say all they did was redesign the plastics, but does it go much deeper than that?
This is what made designing the Harley Davidson Pan America so hard
They weren’t looking to build the best off-road ADV vehicle. Nor one that was the most capable on the road. Instead, HD built a bike that could do all of these things—some equally, some better—than other bikes out there. But it wasn't easy and compromises had to be made.
