Adventure Bikes

Tesla is not usually a company that's associated with two wheels. But here’s a one-off where it is, kind of – with ex-Tesla engineers behind a new motorcycle called the Emara ADV. The e-moto comes from a relatively new company called Zeno.

It's really happening, folks: Royal Enfield has just released photos of the next iteration of its popular Himalayan adventure motorcycle with possibly the most powerful and largest displacement engine it's ever slotted into a production bike.

Royal Enfield made a ruckus in 2023 with its electric Him-E adventure motorcycle concept. Nearly two years on, we're getting a glimpse of what the brand's been cooking up, as a test mule has been spied in north India – and it's pretty sick.

A couple of months ago, New Jersey ebike maker Velotric unleashed a multi-terrain fat-tire adventure model with impressive cargo hauling and towing chops. Now there's an even more capable Nomad.

The Bruzer from Priority Bicycles has been developed with popular YouTuber Ryan Van Duzer and the cycling community to open up bikepacking "to riders who may feel intimidated by either the activity or the price of a quality ride."

Creating a solid fanbase in an already-stuffed middleweight ADV bike market isn’t easy. Moto Morini said yes to that challenge, and what we have is its bravest attempt yet: the X-Cape 700.

KTM has lifted the lid on its 2025 390 Adventure lineup – the road-biased Adventure X and the off-road-focused Adventure R. Not only are these significant upgrades, but both the X and R trims are also significantly cheaper over their outgoing models.

Thanks to the work of an intrepid photographer in Southern Europe, we learned last week that Royal Enfield is well into development on a bike that fans of the brand have been demanding for years: a 650cc version of its wildly popular Himalayan.

"Go big or go home" was the motto of the ADV motorcycle industry for decades. But for a while now, a small-bore revolution has been gaining pace. The sub-500cc ADV class is now bristling with options, pointing to the next big automotive revolution.

Rokon motorcycles aren’t like any other. This particular two-wheel-drive beast, the Ranger Dual Sport Edition, might not produce crazy power figures, but it can tow 2,000 lb, climb a 60% grade, and carry heaps of luggage – all while being street legal.

The BMW R1300GS is a state-of-the-art adventure motorcycle that has the credentials to take you anywhere, but the one thing it can't do is win you any drag races. But what if it could? Aftermarket accessories maker Puig might have the answer.

The entry-level adventure bike class is heavily populated by the likes of KTM, Royal Enfield, and CFMoto’s hugely capable offerings. These 400-500cc bikes are fun, lightweight, and most importantly, affordable. Now, BMW is set to take on them all.
