- EICMA 2026 runs from 3 to 8 November in Milan-Rho, with 3 and 4 November reserved for press and trade visitors
- Fixed unveiling dates have been announced by Yamaha, KTM, Husqvarna, CFMoto, Indian and Benda, among others
- The BMW F 450 RR, Kawasaki Versys 900 and Aprilia RS 660 Phillip Island Tribute make their first public appearance in Europe
Milan remains the most important autumn meeting point for the motorcycle industry in 2026. For the 83rd edition of EICMA, manufacturers are mainly bringing their 2027 model year. Part of it is already known, because many brands now reveal their new bikes online in advance. For others, only the date is fixed and the motorcycle behind it stays under wraps until the press conference. And for a third group there are only spy shots, patent drawings and homologation papers, but no commitment to an appearance in Milan. The new models actually unveiled at the show will be added here from the first press day. For an overview of the whole model year, including bikes launched outside the show, see our guide to new motorcycles for 2027.

When does EICMA 2026 take place?
EICMA 2026 is open from 3 to 8 November at the Fiera Milano exhibition centre in Rho near Milan. The first two days belong to press and trade visitors, while the general public is admitted from 5 to 8 November.
For new models, 3 and 4 November are therefore what counts. Any manufacturer that wants to show a motorcycle for the first time in Milan does so at a press conference on one of these days. Yamaha even moves its presentation to the evening before the show opens. Opening hours, location and organiser are listed in our event calendar.

Which manufacturers are unveiling new motorcycles at EICMA 2026?
So far, Yamaha, KTM together with Husqvarna, CFMoto, Indian, Benda, LiveWire and Ultraviolette have announced an unveiling with a fixed date. Only some of them have already named the models that will premiere in Milan.
Yamaha: presentation on the eve of the show
Yamaha gets going before the halls even open. On 2 November, a livestream from Milan starts at 6:40 pm under the slogan “Redefine the Standard”. The manufacturer has not revealed which motorcycle is behind it. The teaser shows a heartbeat curve with three irregular beats, which points to a three-cylinder engine with a new firing order. The name most often mentioned is Ténéré 900, but it has not been confirmed. Yamaha has already shown the rest of its 2027 model year in advance, mainly with new colours for the road bikes and new technology for the off-road models.

KTM and Husqvarna: a comeback with an off-road focus
KTM returns to Milan after a one-year break. In 2025 the manufacturer skipped the show during its restructuring. Under the slogan “Back on the Grid”, the joint press conference with Husqvarna starts on 3 November at 10:45 am in Hall 22. Announced are new off-road developments, solutions for the next generation and a look at future products, plus a surprise from the off-road side. Neither brand has named any models.
Some of the 2027 model year is already known. The 1390 Super Duke GT, first shown at EICMA 2024, is due to finally reach dealers in early 2027, now also as the GT EVO with the automated AMT gearbox. Husqvarna is showing the Norden 901 in a new metallic blue finish, while the adventure bike remains technically unchanged with 105 hp (77 kW) and 100 Nm. On 6 November at 4:30 pm, Kay de Wolf signs autographs on the Husqvarna stand.

CFMoto: a new sports bike and a scooter
CFMoto exhibits in Hall 10 and has teased two unveilings for 3 November. One image shows the cockpit of a fully faired sports bike with clip-on handlebars, a second one the sketch of a scooter. Neither has a name. An obvious candidate would be the production version of the V4 SR-RR, whose prototype was already on show at EICMA 2025. According to CFMoto, its 997 cc V4 produces more than 157 kW (just over 213 hp), and a pre-production bike reached 315.82 km/h in June. CFMoto has not said whether the production bike will appear in Milan.

Benda: Dark Flag 950 for Europe
On 3 November at 3:45 pm in Hall 18, Benda presents the European version of its V4 cruiser Dark Flag 950, together with its new model range. The in-house V4 displaces 948 cc and produces 108.8 hp (80 kW) at 9,000 rpm and 85 Nm. Seat height is 690 millimetres and the cruiser weighs 242 kilograms (534 lbs) ready to ride. The first European markets are due to receive it from the end of November, and Benda has not yet announced a price.

LiveWire: two world premieres for 2027
Harley-Davidson’s electric brand shares Hall 14 with its parent company. On show for the first time are the S4 Honcho Skate as the third variant of the Honcho range and the Dust Spur as the second model of the Dust family, both planned for 2027. The S4 Honcho Street celebrates its European premiere and is due to go on sale right after the show. They are joined by the Dust Hightail, which appears for the first time under the LiveWire name and in near-production form. LiveWire plans to announce first target figures on 2 November, with production specifications and prices following in the first quarter of 2027.

Ultraviolette: X-47 Venom comes to Europe
Indian electric manufacturer Ultraviolette brings the X-47 Venom to Milan for its European premiere on 3 November. It is the first model on the new 100-volt VX-100 platform, produces 30 kW (around 41 hp), accelerates to 100 km/h in 5.9 seconds and reaches up to 155 km/h. There is no European price yet.

The four-cylinder engine from the Z900 delivers 122 hp (89.6 kW) at 9,500 rpm and 97.3 Nm here, and for the first time in the Versys family there are radar-based assistance systems. The Versys 900 costs from 13,270 euros and the SE 14,170 euros in Germany, with the market launch in April 2027.

Further 2027 models such as the Ducati Panigale V4, the Kawasaki Ninja H2 and the Honda CBR500R Four have also already been presented online. The manufacturers have not individually confirmed whether they will be exhibited in Milan.

Which new models are expected at EICMA 2026?
At several manufacturers, prototypes, patents or homologation documents point to new models. No manufacturer has confirmed an appearance in Milan for any of them.
Honda: production V3R and a new Fireblade
Since July, documents from a design registration have shown the road-legal version of the V3R 900 E-Compressor with mirrors, indicators and a number plate holder. It stays very close to the prototype. Honda has not given a date for series production. In addition, a V3 supersport bike without a compressor is said to replace the CBR600RR as the V3R 900RR, with 120 to 130 hp (88 to 96 kW) under discussion and a market launch no earlier than mid-2027. Then there is the next Fireblade, which Honda tested in camouflage at Jerez on 22 and 23 October. There is no evidence that any of these motorcycles will be in Milan.

For the next S 1000 RR, a patent drawing and an output of 215 hp (158 kW) are circulating, and production is said to start in May 2027. US homologation documents for 2027 also list an M 1000 RS, for which around 205 hp (151 kW) and 113 Nm are expected. BMW has confirmed neither. Recently, the manufacturer has presented new models such as the F 450 R and F 450 RR online.

Ducati: SP versions of the Panigale and Streetfighter
The Californian environmental agency CARB has certified a Panigale V4 SP and a Streetfighter V4 SP for 2027. The Panigale is expected to slot in between the V4 and V4 R, while the Streetfighter SP returns after a one-year break. They are expected to be revealed through Ducati’s online premieres in the run-up to EICMA, and there are no specifications or prices yet. In Milan itself, Ducati rounds off its 100th anniversary year with its own exhibition.

KTM 690 Adventure
Spy shots show an almost finished 690 Adventure with rally styling, multiple tanks and the familiar 692.7 cc LC4 single-cylinder engine. A premiere around EICMA is considered possible, but KTM has not named any model for its own press conference either.

ZXMoto: record bike, boxer and V5
What is confirmed for ZXMoto so far is that racers Valentin Debise and Federico Caricasulo will come to Milan. The modified MX450 is also due to be on show, with which company founder Zhang Xue covered 40.74 kilometres across open water on 25 October. It remains open whether ZXMoto will show a motorcycle with the new water-cooled boxer engine it presented as a prototype in September. The same applies to the five-cylinder V engine with which ZXMoto wants to enter the World Superbike Championship from 2028.

What else can be seen at EICMA 2026 besides new motorcycles?
For the first time, the show features a large MotoGP exhibition in 2026. “Legends of Speed” is organised together with MotoGP and fills more than 1,400 square metres in Hall 22 with over 35 race bikes, from the 1949 AJS Porcupine 500 to the current factory machines of the five manufacturers. It also includes a gaming arena and prize draws for the 2027 Grands Prix at Mugello and Misano.
In the same hall, the Dakar Rally shows historic and current rally motorcycles. Italian electric manufacturer Energica uses the show week for its official restart after insolvency and is hosting its own event in Milan on 4 November.
