Does it Live Up To The Hype? Husqvarna Nuda 900 Review 

I first saw the Nuda 900 R in 2013. At the time I thought it was some very neat conversion by some owner. Until I realized that this "thing" was officially put into production by Husqvarna. Since then it has been my goal to own it one day. I managed it in 2021 when I found one in excellent condition with less than 10,000 km on the odometer. I maintain it reverently and it has reached 24,000 km in my hands. If you take care of it and know how to protect it from its "weaknesses", you won't have any issues. With him I have traveled to Europe but I have also scanned my country and most of all I have rode around my city Athens hundreds of times. All I've been getting for almost three years now are smiles and only smiles. I paid quite a bit of money to get it as a used bike, but it was worth it because of its excellent condition. That same day I erased that money from my mind and decided that I would never sell it. When one day its engine stops working it will decorate some corner of a building as a work of art. Until that day comes I know one thing: it will have paid off every euro with many moments of driving pleasure.

The Nuda 900R is the best bike I've owned. The Nuda is definitely a one of a kind motorcycle, and you really have to ride it to understand how awesome and special this bike really is! PS. Great video & ride safe!

Ive just bought one after loving them for years amd my word, best bike ive ever had. It looks amazing, like nothing else on the road. Even non bikers come over to admire it. Just beautiful. Rifing podition is phenomenal. You're upright, arms wide, back straight, legs not cramped. I could tour on it no problem. It is SO frugal, just sips the petrol. Believe me, you won't even notice the tank being only 13 litres. The engine just pulls like a train, in every gear. It's just a torque monster, overtaking is effortless. And of course the sound.........utter bliss. The front brake is the best you'll find on any bike, almost TOO powerful. It handles like nothing else on the road, just SO flickable. If it so mich as sniffs a corner it wants to turn. Took a bit of getting used to initially as the front is so light but once you do, it makes you look like a pro rider. I will never, ever sell mine. When a man tires of a nuda, he tires of life

For something that been around for more than 10 years, i guess the hype is valid

Yes it does. I would never sell mine either.

I have mine since 2013 (nuda 900 abs) i would never sell that bike ! Still in love

Having the rare pleasure of owning the Nuda 900 here in the UK i agree with everything you say. It's such an amazing,interesting and now extremely rare bike. Yes there are lots of nice newer bikes, but they lack character. This bike sometimes feels like it's alive! Like a Master Engineer crafted it in some remote mountain and put a soul in it...A feeling that is hard to describe... Royal Jordanian has plenty of newer more powerful bikes, but the Nuda has a special place in his heart for him. I didn't really understand why at first, especially when he has bikes like the Superduke 1290 or the BMW S1000rr. But this is one of those rare bikes that makes seasoned riders stop and ask what the heck is it (yes there are people who have never seen it or heard about it) it really is DIFFERENT. And if someone knows what it is they just love asking you how it feels... Yes you can buy many bikes, but this bike is falling into that category of "Regardless of how much money you have, you may NEVER find one to buy...

I am really wanting to import one of these to canada but it seems impractical/very difficult. Glad to see this review.

I’ve been looking for one here in Poland for years. They’re very rare, especially here. Also, the aftermarket is nonexistent. Such a shame, I really hope Husqvarna brings it back one day :(

I had a Nuda 900R for a few years, a brilliant bike. But, my 990 SMR was a better bike. And my Hypermotard 1100 EVO SP is as good as it gets. All three are worthy of keeping for life.

Great video man, I was watching it and thought you might have about 30-50k subscribers judging by video quality. Well done!

There needs to be a new modern version of the Nuda.

RJ really got into loving the bike but the only thing that turn me down the exhaust at the left side it not really a big problem tho

I own a husqvarna svartpilen. It’s a spectacular ride. husky’s have great styling

Rick, the video was very nice , you're pretty good with this narrated content format. Small thing, but you might need to check next time how to avoid this much shaking on the video when you handheld your camera, even the ride footage had more stability.

Still one of the best looking bikes. too bad it never was imported into the US. woulda been a legend here.

mn eerste motor ooit, heb een gewone 900, niet de R, wat een machine. Ik wilde een andere motor gaan kopen maar ik kan hem gewoon nog niet wegdoen, ik denk dat ik hem nooit meer weg doe. Ik heb er een Arrows onder en dat klinkt zo bruut!

I'm 5' 11" and found the Nuda just a tad tall for me. Absolutely great bike though. Definitely sounds different from anything else.

RoyalJordanian is Brand ambassador of Nuda900r

I like it via de zijkant neef

Mengingatkan saya pada Royal Jordanian 👍

Great video again Rick! What area did you ride for the POV shots?

Does the nuda sound like the Mt 07. Or cf moto I'm from us but I've never asked any Nuda riders. I want the engine note as well

I own a tr650, and I'm thinking of being a nuda owner as well.

The exaust complete brand???

Husky should bring this bike back in 2025!

Nice bike, but too rare, expensive and hard to get parts for. There none for sale in the uk. It dose sound nice though.

I ride mine for many hours a day. Only thing that kind of sucks is...your but will get sore. Never selling mine.
