Everyone’s been crying out for the likes of Harley-Davidson, Indian, and Triumph to release more accessible, entry-level retro classics in the West, but in vain. Well, Kawasaki is reportedly ready to answer that call with its W175 LTD.

Guess what: Harley-Davidson isn’t America’s top-selling company. And neither is it even second! Surprise, surprise, it’s Kawasaki of all manufacturers, which puts its name on the crown. All thanks to a sales growth of 14.2% year on year.

Yamaha recently declared that it was formally retiring its iconic inline-four M1 – the same platform that has helped Yamaha secure eight MotoGP riders' titles since its introduction in 2002. Replacing the setup would be a new V4 engine.

The YE-01 shows exactly what Yamaha has its eyes on for the future. Hint: it’s the new MXEP electric motocross racing series. The bike is the result of Yamaha’s recent strategic partnership with the French company Electric Motion.

The CFMoto V4 SR-RR comes with a 997cc, 90-degree V4, which produces over 210 horsepower. That will have it competing against the likes of Yamaha R1M, Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade, and the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10RR. But when will it finally arrive?

Suzuki's beautiful new crossover-styled, sport touring SV-7GX takes the hugely popular SV650's legacy forward. It dares to take on the likes of the hugely popular Triumph Tiger Sport 660, Kawasaki Versys 650, and the Yamaha Tracer 7 in Europe.

We've heard rumblings for a while, but the time is finally here. Norton Motorcycles’ revival is complete as the iconic British bikemaker launches the first of six new motorcycles. It’s called the Manx R, and it’s as proper a supersport as they come.

The KTM 990 RC R was first released as a road-legal race replica in late Spring 2024. It was the brand’s financial woes that delayed the project, but with KTM now having resumed production for a while, the 990 RC R finally breaks cover.

Yamaha has just added a bunch of handy features to its beloved Ténéré 700 World Raid middleweight adventure motorcycle, which should make it an even better choice than before for extended exploration in 2026.

You don’t deliver seven decades of motorcycle engineering without being a fan favorite, and I can see the trend continuing for Honda's CB1000F. It’s essentially a CB1000 Hornet dressed in a sportier avatar with competent underpinnings to do it justice.

Yamaha is revealing six mobility concepts this month, but perhaps the most striking of the bunch is the Motoroid:Λ. This is the evolution of a self-balancing motorcycle prototype Yamaha first revealed in 2017 with a futuristic design.

CFMoto has unveiled the all-new 2026 750SR-S, which becomes its first inline-four motorcycle. The 749cc motor produces 110 hp and 59 lb.ft of torque – not exactly groundbreaking numbers. But it will be incredible value for money, typical of CFMoto.
