New bikes 2027: overview

With the AMB 002 Roadster, Aston Martin and Brough Superior are bringing their first joint road-legal bike: 130 hp, 190 kg, a titanium frame and a 1083 cc V-twin meet exclusive carbon design. Production is limited to 300 units, with first deliveries planned for the third quarter of 2027.

Aprilia presents several new models for 2027 at EICMA 2026: the RSV4 Obscure Spe.Ed., limited to 500 units, offers 220 hp, carbon wheels and new aerodynamics. The Factory models of the RSV4, Tuono V4, RS 660 and Tuono 660 get a new electronics-inspired design. In the scooter segment, the SXR 125 arrives with 10.6 hp, a TFT display and 20 litres of storage. The revised SR GT 125 and 200 also get a new TFT display, more storage and additional features.

Benda kicks off its new-model season with the Rock 707 - a V-twin cruiser that not only has cruise control as standard, but also air suspension and an automatic clutch. If you're after more power, you'll find it in the Darkflag 950 with a V4 engine and over 100 hp. However, the new Dark Flag 600 Ultra EC seems to bring the maximum in features.

At the same time, Benda offers an exciting glimpse into the future at EICMA. Based on the V-twin engine from the Rock 707, the Vinster models are set to become naked bikes, while the Capra 700 marks the brand's entry into the adventure bike segment.

Commuting during the week, exploring gravel at the weekend - that's what the new RE 330 adventure bike is supposed to make possible. The Beta RR X-PRO range gets technical refinements for 2027, but remains as broad as ever with eight models from 125 to 480 cc.

BMW is expanding its 450 family! The new F 450 R takes the familiar technology as its base and brings it into the A2 naked bike segment with numerous changes. If you want something sportier, you can also go for the new F 450 RR including winglets. Of course, we're still waiting for the new S 1000 RR, which we already got a first taste of with the Concept RR. But the touring future could be exciting too - the BMW K18 Vision looks like it jumped straight out of a sci-fi movie! Already confirmed is the model update for models such as the RR, R, XR, GS and K 1600, bringing new colours, packages and features. To celebrate the Nürburgring's 100th anniversary, fans now also have the chance to park strictly limited special editions in their garage.

The top model for the coming season, however, is without doubt the new M 1000 RS, which combines full-on superbike technology with naked bike comfort.

CFMOTO presents three exciting new models at EICMA 2026: the V4SR-RR is a superbike with over 210 hp, a V4 engine and active winglets. With the 550MT and 550MT-X come two new adventure bikes with 54 hp, with the X version more geared towards off-road use. The new 125SC-S rounds off the range as a sporty city scooter with a TFT display, traction control and 30 litres of storage.

The recipe of the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak stays the same for 2027, but it gets a new racing livery. The Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour gets more features and new styling as well. The technology flagship and superbike Panigale V4 gets more power and an expanded electronics package for 2027. With the Desmo450 SM, the Italian manufacturer brings its first supermoto, clearly designed for racing. Ducati shows once again in 2027 that it takes off-road sport seriously. The first hard enduro goes by the name Desmo450 EDS and is based on the Desmo450 MX mx bike, which also receives an update for 2027. If you want less displacement for the MX track, you can go for the new Desmo250 MX 2027.

For its home show in Milan, the Italian manufacturer brings along even more highlights. The sporting spearhead is the new Panigale V4 SP, which has a little sister in tow in the form of the Panigale V2 SP. If you're after naked bike comfort, you can also go for the Streetfighter V4 SP. Things are just as sporty on the new RVE versions of the Hypermotard 698 Mono and Hypermotard V2. The nakeds Diavel V4 S and Monster Dark are also new to the line-up for 2027. For more suspension travel, the DesertX Rally is also available from next season.

With the Sprint 440, Harley-Davidson brings a new entry-level cruiser with a 440 cc single, 27 hp and 38 Nm. With a 671 mm seat height, 189 kg weight and agile handling, it impresses especially in everyday riding. Add to that classic Harley design, a gutsy engine sound and a 3.5-inch TFT. In the first test, it scores with easy controllability, but shows weaknesses in pulling power and suspension comfort.

The four-cylinder supersports class is getting a boost in 2027! With the new CBR500R Four, Honda is now bringing an inline four into the smaller displacement class. At the same time, the 600 classic CBR600RR also gets an update to its hardware and electronics. But the spearhead is and remains the new Fireblade, offered in three versions in 2027.

At EICMA, though, the new Africa Twin family definitely steals the show from the other models. Alongside the Africa Twin and Africa Twin Adventure Sports, the new Enduro Sports joins the line-up for 2027, promising even more adventure. We also already get an exciting glimpse of the production version of the V3R E-Kompressor - market launch not yet finalised. Confirmed, on the other hand, are an update of the SH350i and the new ADV125 adventure scooter.

The compact city scooter SH Mode 125 gets more features and fresh colours for the coming season. The Rebel 500 also gets a new TFT display, while its big sister, the CMX1100 Rebel, gets a colour refresh. Honda sends the X-ADV, Forza 750 and NC750X 2027 into model year 2027 with new colour options, while the 745 cc twin, transmission concepts and technical base remain unchanged. The CB750 Hornet gets similar treatment and will be available in four new designs from 2027. The NT1100 range also gets a refresh with two new colours. If you need even more touring, you can still go for the Gold Wing family. The CRF450R has been comprehensively redeveloped for 2027, with Honda giving it a stronger engine, a 70 percent new frame, revised electronics as well as improvements to suspension and ergonomics.

For 2027, Husqvarna brings eight enduro models with proven technology, WP XACT suspension, TBI on the two-strokes and modern electronics on the four-strokes. The main new features are the white powder-coated frames, fresh graphics and, in selected markets, a one-year manufacturer's warranty.

Since 2021, Kawa fans have had to make do without the Ninja H2. That changes for 2027 with a fundamentally revised version of the Ninja H2. Those who like to ride sportily in the middleweight class can look forward to the update of the Ninja 650, which now gets improved suspension and brake components. What fans have long been asking for also becomes reality in 2027: the new Versys 900, with the engine from the Z900. At the same time, you can now also set off on off-road adventures with the new KLE 650.

When models are well received and work well, they don't always need an extensive update. That's why Kawasaki is relying on new styling for numerous models in 2027:

• Kawasaki 1100 models 2027
• Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX 2027
• Ninja ZX-10R & ZX-10RR
• Kawasaki Ninja models 2027

Kawasaki returns to the two-stroke segment in 2027 with the KX327 for motocross and the KX327X for cross-country, combining a new 327 cc engine with fuel injection, modern suspension, electric start and extensive electronics. At the same time, the Japanese manufacturer comprehensively revises the KX450F and KX250F for 2027 with new engine, suspension and electronics updates, and expands its off-road line-up with cross-country and youth models.

Anyone who wants to go travelling on their enduro will be delighted by the new 690 Rally, which comes with the rally tower straight from the factory. Although already on the market from July 2026, the new KTM 790 Duke counts as a 2027 model. With an extensive update, the middleweight naked bike has been completely renewed and is once again a strong contender in the middleweight class. Things went similarly for the Freeride E 2027, which has been reworked for the coming season. Meanwhile, there were new designs for both the EXC enduro models and the EXC 6DAYS special edition. If you're looking for Dakar technology, you'll be happy with the limited 450 Rally Replica. If you'd rather let rip on an off-road track, you should check out the new SX models for 2027. Of course, KTM stays true to its supermoto roots and brings the 450 SMR with an update for the coming season.

KTM presents numerous new models at EICMA 2026: the 1390 Super Duke GT comes with 190 hp, semi-active suspension and an optional automated manual transmission (AMT). The new 450 RC expands the supersports range from 2028 with a twin-cylinder engine and adjustable WP suspension. The 1390 Super Duke R, adventure, enduro and supermoto models get technical updates and new colours. In the motocross segment, the 250 and 450 SX-F Factory Editions launch with new frames and engine updates, with the 450 now producing 63.8 hp.

The next generation isn't forgotten either. The SX-E 2.12 closes the gap between two existing electric mx bikes.

LiveWire is now putting its minibikes, the S4 Honcho in street and trail variants, into series production. With a 94 km/h top speed and removable batteries, the figures promise genuine fun bikes for urban use and off-road.

Anyone wanting to get into the Italian brand in 2027 gets an exciting opportunity: The Trip 500 will be the manufacturer's smallest model next season. At the same time, Moto Guzzi celebrates its 105th anniversary with a limited Anniversary Edition for the Stelvio, V100 Mandello, V85 Strada and V7 Stone, whose grey-and-yellow design is inspired by the new factory in Mandello del Lario. There are no technical changes, but there are exclusive anniversary details the special editions are available from October 2026 until the end of 2027.

The NIU FQiX x Razer Special Edition combines electric city riding with eye-catching gaming design, up to 110 km of range as well as a TFT display, navigation, Bluetooth, GPS and anti-theft protection.

Piaggio presents three new scooters at EICMA 2026: the Typhoon 125 makes its comeback with 10.6 hp, 14-inch wheels, a TFT display and CBS. The Medley 125 gets a new 5-inch TFT and fresh design, and still offers 36.2 litres of storage. The Beverly 400 is revised too, getting a 6.88-inch TFT with navigation, lighter wheels and new design elements.

Suzuki bridges the gap between naked bike and superbike by simply slotting the new GSX-10R in between! Meanwhile, there's good news for V-twin fans too: the SV family continues in 2027 with the new SV-7S.

The traditional British manufacturer is bringing four new models and some handsome special editions next season. With the new Bonneville T40 & T40 Black, Triumph gives the A2 class a genuine classic feel. The manufacturer's flagship remains the Tiger 1200 range, which comes to market with more power and features. In 2027, Triumph is bringing the Speed Twin 1200 TFC, limited to 750 units, with exclusive design, sportier ergonomics and high-end Öhlins, Brembo and Akrapovič components.

TVS now really wants to take off in the European market. With the new adventure bike flagship RTX 300, this venture is set to succeed from 2027.

Bombshell at EICMA! Yamaha presents the new RW model family, headed by the RW700 and RW700 Explore. Thanks to the CP2, Y-AMT and off-road setup, the manufacturer aims to redefine the standard. If less displacement is enough for you, you can also go for the new RW350. We'll have to be patient a while longer for a new Tenere, but Yamaha shows the Tenere 4 Concept for the first time at EICMA. Finally, for urban journeys, Yamaha presents the new NMAX E and the big-wheel scooter XENTER E.

For 2027, the new MT-125 gets what you'd call a classic facelift: new styling and detail changes on the proven base. Things get gloriously retro in 2027 with the new XSR900, offered in white, pink and blue; if you prefer a fairing, you can go for the XSR900 GP in the new Legend Blue. Yamaha comprehensively revises its Off Road Competition range for 2027, with the focus above all on the YZ250F with a completely new engine, new chassis and revised suspension, while the YZ85 and YZ65 also get technical updates and the entire range gets new colours and graphics.
