PRESENTATION
Welcome to the Husqvarna motorcycling family!
Your new Husqvarna motorcycle is designed and manu-
factured to be the best in its field. The instructions in
this book have been prepared to provide a simple and
understandable guide for your motorcycle’s operation
and care. Follow the instructions carefully to obtain
maximum performance and your personal motorcycling
pleasure. Your owner’s manual contains instructions
for owner care and maintenance. The main repair or
maintenance work requires the attention of a skilled
mechanic and the use of special tools and equipment.
Your Husqvarna Dealer has the facilities, experience and
original parts necessary to properly render this valuable
service.
This “Owner’s Manual” is part and
parcel of the motorcycle, hence, it shall
remain with the motorcycle even when
sold to another user.
This motorcycle uses components designed thanks to
systems and state-of-the-art technologies which are
thereafter tested in competitions.
In racing motorcycles, every detail is verified after each
race in order to guarantee better performance at all
times.
To ensure trouble-free operation of the motorcycle, the
maintenance and inspection table found under Appen-
dix A must be complied with.
IMPORTANT NOTICES
1) NUDA 900 models are designed for ROAD use,
guaranteed free from faults, and covered by legal war-
ranty provided that NO CHANGE IS MADE TO THE STAND-
ARD SETTING and that the intervals specified in mainte-
nance table of Appendix A are complied with.
2) All the motorcycles and any of their
parts used in competitions of any type
are excluded from the warranty.

WARNING*:
Indicates the possibility of severe per-
sonal injury or death if instructions are
not followed.
CAUTION*:
Indicates the possibility of personal in-
jury or vehicle damage if instructions
are not followed.
Note*:
Gives helpful information.
Parts Replacement
When parts replacement is required, use only Husqvarna
ORIGINAL parts.
WARNING*: After a crash, inspect the
motorcycle carefully. Make sure that
the throttle control, brake, clutch and all
other systems are undamaged. Riding
with a damaged motorcycle can lead to
a serious accident.
WARNING*: Never attempt to start or
operate your motorcycle unless you are
wearing appropriate protective cloth-
ing. Always wear a motorcycle helmet,
boots, gloves, goggles and other appro-
priate protective clothing.
PRECAUTIONS FOR CHILDREN
WARNING*:
l Park the vehicle where it is unlikely
to be bumped into or damaged.
Even slight or involuntary bumps can
cause the vehicle to tip over, with sub-
IMPORTANT
In order to maintain the vehicle’s “Guar-
antee of Functionality”, the client must
follow the maintenance programme in-
dicated in the user’s manual by carrying
out maintenance inspections at author-
ised HUSQVARNA dealers.
The cost for replacing parts and the la-
bour required to comply with the main-
tenance plan is charged to the Client.
NOTE: the warranty is NULL AND VOID if
the motorcycle is rented.
WARNING*:
ALWAYS remember that all the motor-
cycles and their parts used in competi-
tions of any type are excluded from the
warranty and that all modications to
standard conguration cause THE VE-
HICLE NON COMPLIANCE WITH TYPE-AP-
PROVAL REQUIREMENTS and it is hence
unsuitable for circulating on public
roads: consequently it may be used only
in “CLOSED CIRCUITS” by authorised sub-
jects holding the relevant driving licence
or authorisation.
Important Notice
Read this manual carefully and pay special attention to
statements preceded by the following words:
sequent risk of serious harm to peo-
ple or children.
lTo prevent the vehicle from tipping
over, never park it on soft or uneven
ground, nor on asphalt strongly heat-
ed by the sun.
lEngine and exhaust pipes become
very hot during riding. Always park
your motorcycle where people or chil-
dren can not easily reach these parts,
in order to avoid serious scalds.
lDo not leave the vehicle unattended
with the engine running or the key in
the ignition.
INTENDED USE
This motorcycle has been manufactured so as to with-
stand standard road stresses.
GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Read these general recommendations carefully before
using the vehicle.
Carbon monoxide
Only run the engine in an open or very well ventilated
area. If you do work in an enclosed area, make sure
you use a fume extraction system.
WARNING*:
Exhaust emissions contain carbon mon-
oxide, a poisonous gas which can cause
loss of consciousness and even death if
inhaled.

SPECIFICATIONS - OPERATION - MAINTENANCE

EN
Parts of the vehicle that become hot
Before working on the engine and the exhaust unit,
wait for them to cool down; while the vehicle is run-
ning, these parts become very hot and remain hot for
some time after turning off the engine.
CAUTION*:
Risk of burns - work with caution and
wear suitable PPE if necessary.
Fuel
WARNING*:
The fuel used to power internal com-
bustion engines is highly flammable
and explosive.
Refuel in ventilated areas with the
engine switched off; do not smoke
and avoid contact between the fuel
and naked flames, sparks, etc. that
may cause an explosion.
Do not dispose of fuel in the environ-
ment.
Keep out of reach of children.
CAUTION*:
Do not tilt the vehicle excessively since
this may cause fuel to leak.
Engine
In some cases, coolant may become inflammable and
if burnt, produce invisible flames which cause burns.
WARNING*:
Do not spill coolant onto hot compo-
nents like the engine or exhaust pipe,
etc. since it may ignite.
During maintenance work, wear latex
gloves.
Never leave the coolant in open contain-
ers in areas accessible to children and
animals since it is toxic.
DO NOT remove the radiator cap when
the engine is hot; the coolant is pres-
surised and may cause scalding.
Engine oil
CAUTION*:
Do not dispose of oil in the environment
since it is highly polluting.
Keep out of reach of children.
Wear latex gloves since prolonged con-
tact with the skin can cause serious
damage.
Send used oil to special authorised re-
cyclers in accordance with the legal re-
quirements in force in the country where
the vehicle will be used.
Brake fluid
WARNING*:
Brake fluid is highly corrosive and may
damage the rubber and painted parts of
the vehicle.
While performing maintenance work,
protect your eyes by wearing special
goggles and wear protective gloves.
In the event of accidental contact with
the eyes, rinse them with plenty of
clean, running water and seek medical
advice immediately.
Keep out of reach of children.
Battery
WARNING*:
Recharge the battery in well ventilated
areas since the battery produces toxic,
highly inflammable gases when being
recharged; do not smoke or use naked
flames or sparks.
The liquid in the battery is highly cor-
rosive. If it comes into contact with the
skin, rinse thoroughly with running wa-
ter. It is extremely important to protect
your eyes because even a small amount
of liquid can cause irreversible damage
to the eyes.

CONTROLS
REFUELLING
Use UNLEADED petrol with octane rating of 95 or
higher only.
CAUTION*:
Using leaded fuel causes permanent
damage to the catalytic converter
which loses its effectiveness.
WARNING*:
Fuel is extremely flammable and can be
explosive under certain conditions. Al-
ways stop the engine and do not smoke
or allow flames or sparks in the area
where the motorcycle is refuelled or
fuel is stored.
WARNING*:
Do not overfill the tank. Refer to the
lower mark on filler. After refuelling,
make sure the tank cap (3) is closed se-
curely.
- Lift the flap (1), insert the key (2), turn it counter-
clockwise and remove the tank cap (3).
- Fully insert the fuel pump nozzle (4) in the tank
before refuelling (see figure).
- After refuelling, replace the cap (3) turning it the
opposite way from when it was removed.
SIDE STAND
A side stand (1) is supplied with every motorcycle. To
lower it, put your foot on the lever (2).
WARNING*:
The stand is designed to support the
WEIGHT of the MOTORCYCLE ONLY. Do
not sit astride the motorcycle using the
stand for support as this could cause
structural failure to the stand resulting
in serious injury.
WARNING*:
The stand does NOT have automatic re-
traction.
The stand has a rotary type switch that
turns off the engine if a gear is engaged
when the stand is lowered.
Periodically check the side stand (see “Scheduled Main-
tenance Chart”); make sure that the springs are not dam-
aged and the side stand freely moves. If the side stand is
noisy, lubricate the fastening pivot (A).

This indicates the engaged gear; neutral is indi-
cated with this symbol “ ”.
7. “MODE” button
Vehicle performance can be varied by selecting
“RAIN” mapping.
The ECU memorises two different mappings that
can be selected using the “MODE” button (see
specific section).
The standard configuration delivers maximum
engine power. The second mapping delivers
power than can be used more at low and me-
dium revs and is suitable when using the vehicle
on wet roads or low grip situations (see “Map
change”).
8. “SET” button
This displays the various functions of the multi-
function display (see “Description of multifunc-
tion display”).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE MOTORCY-
CLE
NOTE*: If you are not familiar with op-
erating a motorcycle, read the instruc-
tions in the “CONTROLS” section before
riding this motorcycle.
PRE-RIDE CHECKS
Any time you ride your motorcycle, make a general in-
spection rst and proceed to check the following:
- check fuel level and engine oil level;
- check brake fluid level;
- check the steering by turning the handlebar both ways,
fully home;
- check the tyre pressure;
- check the chain tension;
- check the throttle control and adjust it, if necessary;
- turn the ignition switch to ON position: check dashboard
display lighting;
- check that parking lights, low beam and high beam
come on, as well as the relevant warning light;
- operate the turning indicators and check that the warn-
ing light comes on;
- check if the rear stop light is functioning.
Running the engine in correctly is essential for ensuring
engine longevity and functionality.
Bendy roads and gradients are ideal for running in the
engine, brakes and suspension effectively.
Vary your riding speed during the running in period.
This ensures that components operate in "loaded" con-
ditions and then "unloaded" conditions, allowing the
engine components to cool.
Although it is important to stretch engine components
during run-in, make sure you do not overdo it.
Optimum performance during accelera-
tion is only obtained after the rst 1000
km (625 mi) of running in.
Follow these guidelines:
do not fully open the throttle grip abruptly at low engine
speeds, either during or after the running in period.
During the rst 100 Km (62 miles) use the brakes gently,
avoiding sudden or prolonged braking.
This allows the brake pad friction material to bed in cor-
rectly with the brake discs.
During the rst 1000 km (625 miles), never exceed 7000
rpm (see table).
After the rst 1000 km (625 mi), have
the checks indicated in the Scheduled
Maintenance Chart performed to avoid
causing injury to yourself or others and
/or damage to the vehicle.
After 1000 km (625 miles) you can expect better engine
performance but without exceeding the maximum rpm
allowed (9000 rpm).
Recommended maximum engine rpm:
km (mi) covered rpm
0-1000 (0-625).....................................................7000
over 1000 (625) ...................................................9000
