The Pasq ADV1 pull-behind motorcycle trailer supports unforgettable 3-wheel adventures. Its single wheel combines with a proprietary trapezoid hinge to ensure the trailer maneuvers around corners but rides like a rigid extension of the bike at speed.

Norton has made good on its threat to turn its slinky V4SV superbike into a cafe racer – without neutering its rorty 1200cc V4 engine. The new V4CR carries an absolutely brutal price tag, but a bike this pretty might just get away with it.

The Surfcycle is a street-legal, stand-up electric scooter capable of highway speeds and unstoppable lane-splitting – with luggage. The ride is halfway between surfing and motorcycling, and its remarkable creators say it's the fastest way across LA.

At EICMA 2022, Sweden's Cake launched its first medium-heavy off-roader in the shape of the limited edition Bukk. Now the full production platform has been announced, and it comes packing a brand-new electric drivetrain dubbed the Jante.

Back in 2021, ebike maker Sondors launched a keenly priced electric motorcycle named the Metacycle. Now the company is following that hub-drive city commuter with an off-road e-moto called the MetaBeast.

Super Soco has targeted this neat-looking electric cafe racer at the sweet spot for suburban commuting, aiming to give it enough battery and poke for practical daily riding with an approachable price tag. We spent an afternoon on board the TC Max.

Lightning's wild LS-218 superbike and Strike sportsbike are among the first EVs to get Enevate's super-high density, ultra-fast charging, next-gen silicon-anode batteries – which charge almost as fast as your buddies can fuel up their dinosaur burners.

Whatever they're smoking at Indian Motorcycle, we want some! The company's doing a limited production run of race-spec Challenger R cruisers, complete with carbon fiber saddlebags, celebrating one of the flat-out wackiest races on two wheels.

Honda has patented a new type of airbag system for motorcycles, which would rapidly inflate in a crash or fall situation, wrap around the rider's torso in a great big hug, and detach from the bike to protect the rider when the two are separated.

Zero has collaborated with San Francisco's Huge Design to produce this super-futuristic take on the brand's SR/S electric sports tourer. Snub-nosed and snub-tailed with a wide slot of a headlight, the SR-X looks like it dropped out of Cyberpunk 2077.

Following the development and rollout of a "big hole" hybrid three-wheeled scooter for police and emergency services, UK-based R&D outfit White Motorcycle Concepts has teamed up with Mahle Powertrain to produce a fully electric version.

Taiwan's Graft EV has announced a tough-looking electric dirt squirter that weighs little more than an ebike but makes 20 times as much power. The EO.12 looks like a Sur-Ron on steroids, and should be an absolute barrel of monkeys on a tight trail.

Two companies – France's CX Air Dynamics and Sweden's Mo'Cycle – are now selling airbag jeans for motorcycle riders. They sit flat as you ride, but in a crash, they balloon up like Sam Smith at the Brit Awards, protecting your knees, hips and thighs.

Praga stunned us with its futuristic, ultra-lightweight Bohema supercar last year, but this Czech company has taken a retro angle on its first streetbike in nearly a century. The ZS 800 combines a gorgeous classic look with some nice modern thinking.

India is not a country known for motorcycle racing – or indeed high-performance motorcycles. But Bangalore company Ultraviolette wants to start pushing the envelope, and it's announced its intent to go racing with its new F99 development platform.
