This section provides a central overview of new motorcycles and recent developments within the market.
Ducati updates the Diavel V4 for 2027 and, for the first time since the switch to the V4 engine, adds an S version alongside it. Both get the look of the V4 RS, navigation and the new quickshifter, while the S also gets electronically controlled Öhlins suspension.
Ducati moves the DesertX Rally onto the new 890 cc V-twin and the monocoque frame of the base DesertX. Compared to the standard DesertX, it clearly targets off-road riding with more suspension travel, a steering damper, a titanium exhaust and tougher protection, but it also costs 2,500 euros more.
At EICMA in Milan, QJMotor is showing the SRV 600 VH, a blend of cruiser and café racer powered by the familiar 561 cc V4. Compared with the SRV 600 V, it gains in power and chassis quality, but price and launch date are still open.
At EICMA 2026, BSA unveils two new singles, the Bantam Bobber 350 and the Bantam Scrambler 350, which will arrive in Europe in 2027. Both displace 334 cc, but they use different engines and appeal to very different riders.
At EICMA 2026, Zero Motorcycles presents the Project Ventura, a lightweight electric supermoto for the A1 licence. The production version is due in summer 2027 and is set to cost less than 8,000 euros.
Royal Enfield showed the Shotgun 650 Son of a Gun at EICMA 2026, a limited series created in collaboration with custom label Deus Ex Machina. It is based on a radical one-off build, but the 100 production motorcycles for 2027 stay much closer to the regular bobber.
Moto Guzzi and Italian outdoor brand Napapijri are launching a special edition of the V85 TT in a North Cape look. Nothing changes on the engine, but heated grips, a heated seat and a travel bag come as standard.
Aprilia has unveiled the RSV4 Obscure Spe.Ed. at EICMA 2026, a track-focused special model limited to 500 numbered units. According to the manufacturer, it is the first production superbike to carry the leg wings from MotoGP, alongside carbon wheels and purely mechanically adjustable Öhlins suspension.
At EICMA 2026, Royal Enfield unveiled the Himalayan 750, the largest member of its adventure family to date. The new twin brings technology the brand has never offered before and is clearly aimed at long-distance travellers rather than off-road sport riders.
At EICMA 2026, KTM presented the production specs of the 1390 Super Duke GT and, for the first time, added a GT EVO with an automated manual transmission. Compared with the first unveiling in 2024, a lot has changed, especially in the gearbox, tyres, brakes and electronics.
CFMoto is showing two new adventure bikes at EICMA 2026 that share a newly developed twin-cylinder engine. The 550MT is designed for tarmac and long tours, the 550MT-X for gravel, rocks and forest trails.
Triumph is sending its two sports enduros into the 2027 model year with revised KYB suspension, new clutch parts and a modified gearshift. In Germany, both models are also getting 200 euros cheaper.
Macbor brings six prototypes to EICMA 2026, from the 125 cc supermoto to the Montana XR6 with a 625 cc twin and rider assistance systems. All six models belong to the adventure segment, and the Spanish brand has not yet announced prices or a launch date.
At EICMA 2026, Phelon & Moore presents the Capetown 5X and Capetown 5 Rally, two compact adventure bikes positioned below the Capetown 7. Both use a new 450 cc twin tailored precisely to the A2 licence, but differ significantly in wheels, suspension travel and intended use.
KTM surprisingly unveiled the 450 RC for the 2028 model year at EICMA 2026. The small twin-cylinder supersport bike comes with cornering ABS and adjustable WP suspension, but has nothing to do with the announced 490 range.
KTM unveiled the new Factory Editions of the 450 SX-F and 250 SX-F at EICMA 2026. Frame, fork, engine and electronics are new, and this very technology is set to feature across the entire SX range from 2028.
The three-cylinder Rino 900 arrives in Milan as a production model one year after the prototype, and with the OAO MAX, QJMotor is showing a fully faired electric sports bike for everyday use. They are joined by an off-road capable SRT 800 RX, two new 125s for the A1 licence and an SRK 1000 RR that is only on display for now.
CFMoto has unveiled the production version of its first superbike at EICMA 2026. The V4SR-RR comes with an in-house V4 engine, more than 210 hp and movable winglets, but price and delivery date are still missing.
Letbe is bringing five model families to Milan, from a lightweight 125 to a 350 cc maxi scooter. Two of them are already on sale in Spain, while little more than the name is known about the other three.
With the Capra 700, Benda is entering the adventure segment for the first time, relying on a V-twin instead of the usual parallel twin. On paper it delivers exactly the output of the Yamaha Ténéré 700, but it takes a different path when it comes to weight and the front brake.
