Dealer in Western Canada returned my deposit today. They only got first shipment and had blown shock and missing parts on those bikes.
Said their promised second shipment is cancelled - total of 30+ bikes in the west won’t appear.
Supply chain issues apparently.

Any one else heard of production curtailment and shipments cancelled?

Think we are 100 or more who has preordered here in Sweden, but not one bike has been delivered get! 😱

Dealer in Idaho took my deposit, said expected delivery is between March & May for the 5 they have on order. Sure hope it comes through!

Dealer I ordered from thought he was going to get 4 or 5, he received 1. I guess I was first in line going to go and pick her up Saturday.

I had a bike confirmed reserved in Denver but ended up getting it elsewhere. Not sure if they have anybody else’s name on it. Fay Myers Motorcycle World if anybody wants to give them a ring.

Just got an update via text from my dealer (Carl's Cycle, Boise)..."Husvarna updated schedule showing all 5 Norden on order for April shipment". He said they receive exact dates once the shipment is 7-10 days out.

My dealer in Alabama took my deposit on Feb.17, saying that he have 2 coming in March... I'm still waiting for an update.

Put 500 miles on her so far, no problems once the shock was rebuilt. You're going to love it.

What problem did you have with the shock absorber?

What problem did you have with the shock absorber?

Almost every 901 that arrived in western Canada and many is US had a blown shock. Shock was either empty of oil on arrival or leaked on first use.

Blown shock when uncrated - First thoughts

First 901 just arrived at the local dealer in Vancouver so I went for a look-see and test-sit. Looks better than pictures, nice balance. Intuitive screen menus. I could get balls of both feet on the floor and the bar-seat-peg relationship seated / standing felt good for a 169cm 70kg guy...

When I arrived home with the new Norden I was balancing and jumping up and down on the suspension , that's when it started squirting oil on the cat. I checked it at the dealership and it was dry. I have 700 miles on it, no leaking now.

So they fixed it is what your saying?

Possibly because theres no oil left

I'm just seeing this post now, but I was searching for a Norden on Feb 17, and I happened to call Fay Myers and put a deposit on that bike! Lucky me, and thank you!

I was told yesterday that the next one in (International Motorsports) is mine, however they did not know when the next one in would arrive.

Well mine has arrived in Vancouver and should pick it up next week. Dealer said shock is good.
