600,000 Attend 2026 EICMA Show
T
he EICMA show in Milan,
Italy, is arguably the most im-
portant motorcycle show each
year. With more than 700 exhibi-
tors filling 10 large buildings and
a claimed 600,000 visitors over
six days, it is an overwhelming
experience. This is where most
major motorcycle brands intro-
duce new models we will see in
the coming years. I squeezed it
all into the two media days, and
these were my big takeaways
from what I saw:
Adventure motorcycles, espe-
cially sub-600cc models, were
the most notable trend. We have
seen a big surge in this space
over the past couple of years,
with the KTM 390 Adventure,
BMW F 450 GS, Royal Enfield
Himalayan 450, CFMOTO Ibex
450, Kawasaki KLE500 and Moto
Morini Vettore 450 headlining

Bend, Oregon-based Dust Moto, which was recently acquired
by LiveWire, has been developing the Hightail (left) for several
years. It is a premium MX / off-road model due to be available in
2027. The Spur concept (right) is aimed at kids.
