EICMA 2015

Suzuki is ready to step back on the dance floor and boogie with a brand new GSX-R1000, built from the ground up to put the Big Gixxer back in contention at the pointy end of the sportsbike market.

​Honda's European design team has produced a couple of tasty concepts for EICMA Milan. Using the CB650F naked bike as a starting point, meet two very European looking customs that wouldn't look out of place with an Aprilia or Husqvarna logo on the tank.​

Ducati is kicking back a gear with the XDiavel, which uses a stroked-out engine to put the torque lower in the rev range, and gives a true feet-forward cruiser riding position, while pulling all the silly plastic off the sides for a much cleaner, sweeter look. ​​

With a retuned version of the crossplane-crankshaft R1 superbike engine providing the boogie, the focus of Yamaha's new MT-10 will be on fun, but Yamaha has also chosen to throw in a cruise control system.​

BMW has flagged its ambition to move beyond the C Evolution scooter​ and enter the top class of electric motorcycles​ with a battery powered alternate to its S 1000 RR superbike – the experimental eRR.
