Italian bikemaker Aprilia's latest predictive rider aids transform regular superbikes from reactive machines into proactive riding partners. Onboard sensors and predictive software algorithms anticipate loss of control before it even occurs.

We’ve seen our share of wild motorcycle builds, but few come close to the sheer audacity of this one. From BMW Motorrad, this futuristic custom is a fierce drag-racing machine complete with a NOS canister for an (admittedly theoretical) power boost.

BMW Motorrad unveils the 2026 Concept RR, a jaw-dropping look at its 6th-gen superbike. With over 230 hp, WSBK-level aero, and race-bred tech, it splits the lanes between street and a full-blown track weapon.

Very few cross-industry partnerships have been a marketing success story like the Ducati-Lamborghini collab. Now comes the 3rd motorcycle in the series, the Panigale V4 Lamborghini, inspired by the Revuelto, Lambo's first plug-in hybrid sports car.

Ultraviolette’s forthcoming electric superbike, the F99 has achieved an Indian quarter-mile record of 10.712 seconds. It sets the stage for the brand’s global ambitions as it begins retail sales in Europe. A US release might not be too far off either.

A 750cc V8 custom superbike that revs over 17,000 rpm sporting one-piece fiberglass bodywork is no joke. It's all the more impressive when you realize this bike was built in the 90s. Aussie engineer Ian Drysdale tells us about this build.

Fifty thousand bucks is a lot of money for a motorcycle. Kramer, a boutique maker of race bikes, has tried to cram in as much as it can on two wheels – race-ready components, advanced electronics, and a titanium and carbon-fiber body.

CFMoto's engineers have had their hands full. Its booth at EICMA had quite a few new releases on display, but the star of the show was a brand new, state-of-the-art 1,000cc V4 and a superbike concept signalling the company's WSBK intentions.

Honda has unveiled a limited edition of the CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP that is restricted to 300 units globally. The flagship liter-class motorcycle features full carbon fiber bodywork and comes in an all-black stealth avatar.

Ultraviolette has taken the wraps off the all-new F99, branding it India’s first ever superbike. Drawing its design inspiration from supersonic jets, the bike can go from standstill to 60 mph in 3 seconds on the way to its claimed top speed.

A thousand lifetimes ago, at EICMA 2019, Aston Martin and Brough Superior teamed up on an eye-popping AMB 001 turbo sportsbike. In the post-apocalyptic wasteland of 2022, this sliver of unobtanium gets a souped-up 225-horsepower Pro stablemate.

Yank Ducati's new Panigale V4 R out of its crate, replace the purely ornamental standard exhaust with a titanium Akrapovic race pipe and fill it up with a fancy "performance oil" from Shell, and you're sitting on a machine capable of 240.5 horsepower.
