If straight-line speed is your priority, the Stelvio takes the lead. With 10 HP more than the Norden 901, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the Norden 901 has a clear advantage. Weighing in 28kg less than the Stelvio, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Riders with a shorter inseam should lean towards the Stelvio. Its seat height is 24mm lower than the Norden 901, making it much easier to flat-foot at stoplights and increasing confidence during stops. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the norden901 if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the stelvio if you want the alternative brand character.
