I sent the bike to an authorized technician with pretty good reviews. He checked everything and did a reset to ecu and followed exact manufacturer’s instructions. (I will ask exactly what he did)
He said is working fine . He also drove it a lot to check.
I will get it back this week and I ll keep you noted if problem solved.

This might be a tad late but i have experienced the same problem with my 2023 expedition. I had a faulty clutch switch which also caused my cruise control to not work.
They have replaced the switch 3000 km's ago and since then I haven't experienced the problem anymore.

Update: I did went as I mentioned in a good authorised technician. He followed exact manufacturer's guideline including ECU reset/ update, sensors check etc.
Took it back.. bike sounds bassier and better..
It stalled again after 50-60 kms, he told me to do the 15 min idle reset and it doesn't matter if it happened once..
And now, after 1000km bike works good with no stalls. I think the best answer for these kind of problems is to find a good mechanic.

What is the 15 min idle reset?

What is the 15 min idle reset?

You let the bike idle without touching the throttle for 15 mins when it’s cold . Turn it off after 15mins.
This helps readapt/calibrate environmental values etc.
You need to do ecu reset first in the dealer.
I m not sure if it helps doing this without ecu reset.

I have this exact same problem with my Norden expedition 2024 with 1.500kms. Already take it to the dealership twice but the problem is still there. Now they ordered the fuel pump, fuel injector and fuel pipe from warranty and I’m waiting them to arrive to change them to see if it makes any difference.

Talked with my authorized service guy and he told me that he did a full ecu reset . Then you need to leave it 15min (no less) idle when cold (no touching the throttle).
He told me that this happened because it had adapted wrong values when was first operated or something didn’t went good at initial run up. (Another dealer)

After this ecu and idle reset, works great, never occurred again. (1500+ kms)
Try it first before doing annything else.

I’ll talk with my authorised service guy tomorrow to see what he has done last time, I’m sure he told me that he calibrated ‘the times’ (don’t know what that is) and the quick shift more than once. I’ll ask him about the ECU reset and cold idling if he done anything like this, and if is possible for me to do the ECU reset or if I need to go to the dealership for it to be done.
For sure that I’ll try everything to fix this problem because I like the bike, but I’m getting worried because I see more people getting this problem and no one is getting it fixed.
I also get a red screen warning on my dashboard, saying “Oil pressure low” when the bike shutdown, and sometimes when I start it but in this case is very fast appearing/disappearing.

You can see what happens in this video, it’s not mine but it’s the same, he is slowing down, closes the clutch and as he is gearing down the bike stalls. Time this occurs in the video- 0:31

Do the ECU factory reset at the dealer.
Take it home. No need to leave it there. Next day do the idle reset for 15mins (I did for 15min & 5sec)

If they did already the ECU reset . Do the 15 min idle reset at home.

In my case he did reset it and sent the bike to me. It happened (stalled) again after 40-50km and he told me not to worry if it happened once . Then, he instructed me to do the idle reset.
After that, it never stalled again.

I don’t know if he did the reset, but I’m going there today after lunch and he makes the ECU Full reset and tomorrow morning I do the 15m idle. Let’s see if this helps, but I don’t have much hope, from all the people that I find here on the internet with this problem you are the first one that posted a solution, of course I will try it but as I said I don’t have much hope.

I was in the same boat as you. Just double check that he is going to delete ALL previous data from ecu.
Good luck !

Hi Norden Forum Folks, I love my new Norden, but.....

Has anybody had this mildly terrifying issue or something similar. I have owned it for 4 months and have done about 900 miles on it.

I was riding along at artound 50mph down a long wet hill coming into a corner, I changed down and backed off the throttle using the engine breaking. Then suddenly the back wheel stopped and skidded round very quickly, fortunately I was covering the clutch (even with a quickshifter old habits right?), I managed to pull it in quickly and the back wheel came into line again. I couldn,t hear the engine running, I looked down at the dash, it was all active, no warning lights, no big yellow square with an engine management or fault code. Just no revs, the engine had stopped suddenly. I coasted into a small clearing by the road and stopped. I pressed the starter button and it fired up immediately. My riding companion pulled up and asked what had happened as she saw the whole thing. I have no idea.

I took it to the excellent local Norden/KTM dealer, they couldn't find anything. No fault codes, took it for a test ride, no issues. I was very unnerved by the incident, so a few days later I took it out again on very dry roads, going only on mainly straight A roads, coming through a small town towards a roundabout, I changed down and backed off the throttle at around 25mph, it happened again. As it was dry it simply coasted to a stop, rather than causing the backwheel to skid. I tried pulling the clutch in and letting it out as it did to see if it would bump start, it didn't. I hit the starter and it came to life immediately.

I instantly went to the dealer and within 15 minutes they had plugged it in, saw no errors or faults again.

Frankly I am at a loss. Has anybody had anything similar?

I had exactly the same problem 15 days ago on my Norden which had just reached 9000 km and the dealer could not find the origin of the fault 😞

Update: I went to the mechanic to reset the ECU but that was the first solution he tried, so I'm still waiting for the parts he asked for under warranty (fuel pump, injectors and fuel pipe). According to him, this set comes already assembled from the factory that supplies them, and he's already caught them with a lot of dirt on them, and once they're assembled in the engine and put into operation, the rest of the line gets dirty and this happens.

I'm going to wait for the warranty material to arrive and be assembled so that I can do a few kilometers and then report back here.

Did you do the 15 min idle reset ?

 

[morcegolas]

Did you do the 15 min idle reset ?

Good morning.
When you told me about this idle I thought it wasn't the first time I'd heard about it, and when I spoke to the mechanic he confirmed that it had indeed happened at 300kms when I took the bike there the first time after resetting the ECU.
Yesterday unfortunately after posting here on the forum I had a small accident with the bike and had to call the workshop to find out if they had the clutch lever, and in the middle of a bad event I had some good news, the fuel pump has arrived and so now I have to leave the bike there to change the parts and see how the bike will be.

 

[morcegolas]

Update on my situation:

After changing fuel pump, injectors and fuel pipe that were very dirty with a brown gunk at 2.500Km, and after almost two fuel tanks ( 500km ) the bike is still turning off and showing the red warnings on the TFT, I still didn’t call the dealer because he said to me that I need to make some Kms to clean the circuit. Next week I’ll be doing a 1.500Km trip so after I come back it’s the perfect time to visit the dealership again. The first fuel tank was with 95 octane and this one I’m running with 98 octane. I think the bike is working better with this fuel but already turned off today while riding, shifting down from 3rd to 2nd as usual.
I’m also considering adding some kind of cleaner to the fuel, but didn’t talk with the mechanic yet to see if I should do it or not…

I’ll keep you updated when I have more news on this matter.

Ride safe ✌🏽

 

[morcegolas]

Good morning!
So after making 2.500km after changing all the parts my motorcycle it has the exact same problems, and when returning home it shuts down at 140Km/h in the left lane of the highway with one car being right behind me, this was the border line for me, as soon as I got home I took my motorcycle to the dealer and I talked to them because I have zero confidence on it now, so unfortunately I’m not updating my case anymore because I returned it for good and I’m changing motorcycle.
I hope you guys can solve the problems with yours bikes, but I bought my bike to have fun and not to put my life in danger just because Husqvarna/KTM knows there’s a problem with this bikes and do nothing about it. For sure this two brands are stripped from my list.
I returned my bike with 5.100km.

Ride safe ✌🏼

That’s unfortunate man. I know it’s frustrating.
You pulled the clutch at 140kmh?
I can give my authorized service contact if your dealer wants to contact him..
He said that he followed exact ktm (factory) instructions.. and never stalled again.
Don’t know if he missed something or a minor thing..
Anyway, safe rides and good luck with a newer one.

 

[morcegolas]

@nickkont the back wheel didn’t lock, but as I had a car just behind me gaining speed and the bike loses speed he had to brake hard…
