Riding

Where the Expedition truly distinguishes itself from the Norden 901 is in componentry. It shares the more stout Xplor suspension with KTM’s 890 R, gets a burly skid plate, as well as touring amenities like a more protective windscreen, centerstand, and luggage as standard.

You’ll get off the main Highway 93 and head onto the more scenic and a lot quieter Route 89, one of Americas most iconic roads that traverses the country all the way to its northern border with Canada. Sometimes called the ‘National Park Highway’.

To celebrate the tyre’s arrival in Europe, here are our top five coastal roads to ride. There’s a little of everything here: tight single-trackers, wide open corners, epic straights. Test your tyres on these roads, or upload your own favourites.
