Esposizione Internazionale del Ciclo, Motociclo e Accessori. That’s the full Italian name of Milan’s huge annual two-wheeled trade show, better known by its acronym, EICMA.
Launched in 1914, the event serves as a platform for standout brands like BMW, Ducati, Honda, Royal Enfield and more to unveil shiny new bikes and bike-adjacent products, some available immediately and others launching (or hoping to launch) down the road.
Naturally, we’ve spent the past several days tracking and documenting the most notable motorcycles from the show — plus other newsworthy, concurrently announced bikes — now compiled below to bring you up to speed in a hurry.
Kawasaki2026 Kawasaki Z900RS ABS
This borderline superbike in retro clothing gets a big upgrade in the form of the new 948cc in-line four engine, a now-electronically throttled thumper making 115 horsepower at 9,300 rpm and max torque of 73 lb-ft at 7,700 rpm. That snarling beast is accompanied by a host of IMU-driven rider-friendly tech, including Kawasaki Cornering Management Function (KCMF) and Kawasaki Quick Shifter (KQS), plus electronic cruise control, Bluetooth-powered smartphone connectivity via Kawi’s Rideology app and a more relaxed riding position.
BMW Motorcycles2027 BMW F 450 GS Trophy
This approachable addition to BMW’s unparalleled adventure bike line could open the gates to a whole new crop of off-road debutantes, thanks in part to a 420cc parallel-twin engine making 48 horsepower at 8,750 rpm and peak torque of 32 lb-ft at 6,750 rpm. That compact power plant helps keep the weight under 400 pounds, while BMW’s Easy Ride Clutch and Gear Shift Assist Pro tech make shifting a snap, easing the inherent challenge of learning to ride an ADV, especially when the terrain gets tough and technical.
Suzuki2027 Suzuki SV-7GX
With Suzuki’s SV650 and V-Strom 650 facing discontinuation in markets outside of the United States, the Japanese manufacturer has decided to field a new offering in the form of the SV-7GX. The bike comes powered by the same proven 90-degree V-twin, though it updates the engine with a revised intake design and introduces a fresh crossover chassis. Power comes to an estimated 72.4 ponies and 47.2 lb-ft of torque, while curb weight falls at 465 lbs, making for a formidable middleweight option.
Honda2026 Honda WN7
Honda’s first foray into the electric motorcycle segment comes in the form of the WN7. As a naked EV, it produces comparable power to a 600cc supersport while making as much torque as a larger literbike. Estimated range comes to over 83 miles, and charging can take the battery level from 20 percent to 80 percent in just 30 minutes.
Zero MotorcyclesZero LS1
The biggest EICMA news from the original electric motorcycle brand is not actually a bike but a scooter. It nonetheless deserves some mention, as it may actually be the best option for many urbanites, thanks to its removable batteries (located under the floorboards to lower the center of gravity), nimble handling and under-seat storage compartment, plus a range of 71 miles and top speed of 62 mph.
Harley-Davidson2026 Harley-Davidson Street Bob (Solo Seat)
Harley shaved a thousand dollars off the starting price of this snazzy cruiser by ditching the traditional two-up in favor of a solo seat, plus cast aluminum wheels, chrome finish and a single paint scheme, Dark Billiard Gray. It still boasts a Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine, ride modes and Harley’s latest rider safety enhancements, including ABS, traction control, drag torque slip control, tire pressure monitoring and automatic cornering adjustments.
Harley-DavidsonHarley-Davidson Heritage Classic (Solo Seat)
This classically styled cruiser features a Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine, ride modes and Harley’s latest rider safety enhancements, but it starts $2,000 cheaper thanks to some clever streamlining by Harley. The bike leans down to a solo seat (rather than the traditional two-up), plus cast aluminum wheels, chrome finish and a single paint scheme, Dark Billiard Gray.
Harley-Davidson2026 Harley-Davidson Street Glide (Solo Seat)
One of Harley’s coolest touring bikes gets a whopping $2,000 cheaper with this blank canvas package, which strips things down to the bare essentials. That means a solo seat (rather than the traditional two-up), plus cast aluminum wheels, chrome finish and a single paint scheme, Dark Billiard Gray. These cost-saving measures, however, do not come at the expense of a Milwaukee-Eight 117 engine, ride modes and Harley’s latest rider safety enhancements, including ABS, traction control, drag torque slip control, tire pressure monitoring and automatic cornering adjustments.
Royal EnfieldRoyal Enfield Flying Flea S6
A year after Royal Enfield revealed the Flying Flea C6 electric roadster at EICMA 2024, the brand has pulled back the curtain on its off-road capable sibling. While RE remains cagey on specs, scrambler trademarks come in the form of the upside-down fork, chain final drive and mulleted wheels — 19 inches front and 18 inches rear. The S6 also boasts a classically round touchscreen cluster offering advanced functionality and connected features, just the beginning of a bunch of discreet tech that takes this bike far beyond what the Flying Fleas of the 1940s offered.
Ducati2026 Ducati Hypermotard V2
For the first time in the model’s 20-year history, the Ducati Hypermotard is abandoning Ducati’s Desmodromic valves. It’s a shift that sees a drop in weight (down over 28 pounds), an increase in power (up four ponies to 120.4 horsepower) and an extension in service intervals (valve checks are now at 28,000 miles). Even still, it’s a break from tradition and one that will inevitably touch on a sore spot with purists.
Honda2026 Honda CB1000GT
Following the release of its highly anticipated CB1000 Hornet, Honda has transformed the bike into a striking sport tourer called the CB1000GT. Along with a CFD-developed fairing, it brings stability-focused geometry tweaks, electronically adjustable suspension, a six-axis IMU and other comfort-minded updates. As with its predecessor, it’s slated to arrive with a competitive price point when it goes on sale in the UK. Though not initially slated for the United States, it will likely follow the Hornet’s flight across the pond.
Honda2026 Honda XL750 Transalp E-Clutch
Indian Motorcycle2026 Indian Sport Scout RT
Thanks to six-inch moto-style risers, a wind-cutting quarter fairing and the power mullet of a 19-inch front wheel and 16-inch rear wheel, the Sport Scout is already a total blast. The RT simply ups the ante with all the bells and whistles of the Limited +Tech package, plus a surprisingly handy accessory: waterproof, lockable saddlebags that provide 10 gallons of storage space for gear, everyday essentials and even a half helmet.
Ducati2026 Ducati DesertX V2
While this bike doesn’t launch until February of 2026, Ducati dished a few details at EICMA, most notably the fact that the new DesertX will swap out the beloved Testastretta engine in favor of the brand’s new 890cc V2. This engine makes a claimed 110 horsepower at 9,000 rpm and max torque of 68 lb.-ft. at 7,000 rpm, numbers pretty similar to its predecessor, but it also helps the bike shed nine pounds, making it leaner, nimbler and more capable.
Ducati2026 Ducati Panigale V2 S Giallo
For 2026, Ducati is treating its Panigale V2 S to an eye-catching Giallo (yellow) option. Much more than a mere colorway, the hue riffs on the brand’s history of using the pigment for racing and performance motorcycles that dates back to the 1970s. Like its Streetfighter stablemate, it comes powered by Ducati’s new V2 twin, resulting in significant weight savings and improved service intervals.
Ducati2026 Ducati Streetfighter V2 S Giallo
Ducati is giving its Streetfighter V2 S an eye-catching Giallo (yellow) option. Much more than a mere colorway, the hue riffs on the brand’s history of using the pigment for racing and performance motorcycles that dates back to the 1970s. As is the case with its Panigale stablemate, it comes powered by Ducati’s new V2 twin, resulting in a considerable diet and easier ownership.
Royal Enfield2026 Royal Enfield Bullet 650
Royal Enfield rewards the world’s oldest continuously produced nameplate (93 years!) by upgrading its engine to a 650cc parallel twin making 46.4 horsepower at 7,250 rpm and 38.6 lb-ft. of torque at 5,650 rpm. Equally notable is the bike’s gorgeous retro aesthetic, highlighted by a steel tubular frame, stylish bench seat, gold pin-striping, classic winged badges on the teardrop tank and the side covers — and of course a pair of sweet peashooter pipes.
