Bikes expected at EICMA 2026: confirmed, likely and rumors

All the brands in this section, including Ducati Motor Holding, appear in the official EICMA 2026 catalogue. Attendance does not confirm a model's premiere: some 2027 motorcycles have already been announced before the November 2026 show.

Confirmed

• Yamaha: presentation confirmed, model not announced. Yamaha has invited the press to an event on the evening of Monday, November 2 in Milan, the day before the show opens, promising to "redefine the standard". The teaser shows an electrocardiogram with three irregular peaks, which points to a three-cylinder engine. Much of the press expects the Ténéré 900, but Yamaha hasn't named the model.
• Royal Enfield Himalayan 750: debut confirmed. Royal Enfield CEO B. Govindarajan has said the production version will be unveiled at EICMA 2026. The prototype was shown at the 2025 edition and uses a 750 cc parallel twin derived from the brand's 650. The latest spy photos show an almost production-ready bike and, according to Indian press reports, it will be the first Royal Enfield with cruise control.
• KTM: attendance confirmed, models not announced. KTM returns to EICMA after skipping recent editions, with a strong off-road focus. Its press conference is on November 3 at 10:45 a.m. (Hall 22, stand E08) and it will keep the new models under wraps until then. Expected: the new RC sport bikes (RC 200, RC 390 and RC 490) and possible updates to the 790/990 Adventure range. Husqvarna, part of the same group, has also confirmed it will be there, in Hall 22, with news on November 3 and no models announced yet.
• Indian Motorcycle: MY27 announcements confirmed, models not named. Its October 8 announcement confirms the first wave of 2027 news at EICMA. The press conference is on November 3 at 11:45 a.m., in Hall 22, stand 195. No model names or prices are confirmed in that release.
• Triumph Bonneville T40 and T40 Black: public debut confirmed. EICMA announced their public debut on October 7 at Hall 5, stand E80. Both extend the 400 cc single-cylinder range for A2 riders. Dealer arrival is announced for spring 2027, with official prices to follow at the start of the year.

Already announced, no show premiere confirmed

• Honda CMX500 Rebel 2027: announced and linked to EICMA. The October 8 show report details E-Clutch and a new 3.5-inch circular TFT. It directs visitors to Hall 7, stands D10, G10 and G46. This confirms a model announcement linked to the event, without establishing a world premiere.
• Ducati: attendance confirmed, Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour and Panigale V4 2027. Ducati Motor Holding has its own stand at EICMA 2026: Hall 5, stands O70 and O82, separately from its merchandise distributor. EICMA's October 5 report on the Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour confirms that attendance. The touring version includes 60-litre side cases, heated grips and seats, radar-assisted cruise control and a 170 PS V4 Granturismo engine. The model has already been announced; the report does not describe it as a world premiere at the show. The October 15 Panigale V4 announcement adds the 2027 V4/V4 S update to Ducati's lineup, with 218 hp declared and electronic developments on the S. It is an announced update linked to the stand, not a confirmed world premiere.
• Kawasaki Ninja H2 2027: announced, show premiere not confirmed. Kawasaki announced the return of the Ninja H2 range on September 16, 2026: the road-going H2 and H2 Carbon, plus the track-only H2R. The H2 gets a revised supercharged engine, Brembo Hypure front brakes and updated instruments; the European technical specifications list 200 PS, or 209 PS with Ram Air. This is a confirmed 2027 model, but the announcement does not confirm an EICMA premiere.
• SYM ADX 300: equipment update. EICMA confirms an updated ADX 300 in Hall 11, stand G48. The additions are an integrated dash cam, SYM+ smartphone connection and an aluminium top case. The report describes its 278 cc technical base as essentially unchanged; do not confuse the equipment update with an entirely new model.

Likely

• BMW M 1300 GS. Spy photos from late July show a more off-road GS with a 21-inch front wheel and knobbly tyres, alongside what looks like a revised R 1300 GS. BMW hasn't confirmed either of them.
• Harley-Davidson Sprint. According to Harleysite, the A2-licence cruiser based on the X440 (440 cc single) will make its European debut in Milan after its September unveiling was postponed. The same source puts its European price below €8,500, with arrival in 2027. Harley-Davidson hasn't confirmed the debut or the price.
• Honda V3R 900 E-Compressor (production version). Honda showed the prototype at EICMA 2025. A design filing made public in July shows a road-ready version, and in September Honda started a documentary series on its development. Honda says it has no production date yet.
• Suzuki SV650. A CARB filing from September confirms a new SV650 with the SV-7GX's 645 cc V-twin, ride-by-wire, riding modes, traction control and a quickshifter. Suzuki hasn't announced it.

Rumors and brands with no announcements

• Aprilia RS 660 (rumor). Spy photos from August show an RS 660 Factory test bike with a new tank and new instruments. Aprilia hasn't confirmed anything.
• CFMOTO (no announcements). Its latest launch, the Ibex 950 unveiled in the US in August, is the American version of the 1000MT-X already sold in Europe. The V4 SR-RR prototype from EICMA 2025 still has no confirmed production version.

Helmets

EICMA now confirms specific helmets at the show, including Shark Skwal iCup and Nolan X-804 ST. Other brands have already released collections without identifying their complete stand lineup. A show appearance is not automatically a world premiere.

Jump to: Shark · Nolan · HJC · LS2 · AGV · Shoei J-Cruise 3 · HUD and noise cancellation · Off-road · Other brands

Shark Skwal iCup: LED braking lights and sport styling

EICMA confirms the Skwal iCup in Hall 6, stand I46: Lexan full-face, ECE 22.06, double D fastening and a vertical LED strip integrated into the spoiler. Its accelerometer detects deceleration without a motorcycle connection. This signalling technology also appears on the i3: compare fastening, equipment and price in our Skwal iCup versus i3 comparison. The announcement confirms its show presence, not an exclusive world premiere.

Nolan X-804 ST: the road-oriented X-804

The official show announcement places Nolan in Hall 6, stand I36. The X-804 ST shares the RS platform with a shorter spoiler and N-Com Bluetooth+/Mesh provision. Nolan had already announced it on October 6 as part of its 2027 collection. Its official euro catalogue lists the Puro finish at €649.99; this is a dated reference checked on October 18, not a price covering every finish or destination.

HJC 2027: eight new helmets

HJC is on the official list and its 2027 range is already on sale: eight models, including the i101 flip-back modular, the F72 Carbon full-face, the dual-sport style RPHA 60 Carbon and the C92 modular. On September 21 it published a technical announcement for the i72, its new entry-level full-face. See all eight models with prices in our HJC 2027 range article.

LS2 2026/2027: Ranger, Valiant Gear and Explorer EVO

LS2 is also an exhibitor and presents its new collection as 2026/2027. It's four helmets: the FF909 Ranger and FF912 Valiant Gear modulars, and the MX707 Explorer EVO and Explorer EVO Carbon adventure helmets. LS2 hasn't said which it will display. Photos, specs and prices in our LS2 2026/2027 article.

AGV Pista GP R3: the new racing flagship

AGV isn't on the exhibitor list, but it has just unveiled its new flagship. The Pista GP R3 replaces the Pista GP RR and debuted in MotoGP on September 11 at Misano. It introduces the Sphera system with RLS technology: outer panels that slide and release in an oblique impact to reduce the rotation transmitted to the head. It's a carbon full-face certified to FIM FRHPhe-02. AGV has not announced a European price. In the US it is expected in the first quarter of 2027 at around $1,700 to $1,800, so EICMA is the natural moment for European pricing. In the meantime, read our Pista GP RR review.

Shoei J-Cruise 3 Acconic: new graphics

Shoei is confirmed for EICMA 2026 in Hall 6, stand F40. Its European J-Cruise 3 page now lists the Acconic TC-2, TC-6 and TC-9 graphics as coming soon. This updates the appearance of the existing open-face helmet: no technical changes are announced. It retains its AIM shell, ECE 22.06 certification, CJ-2 visor, QSV-2 sun visor and Comlink integration. The October 6 EICMA report says the graphics are available at dealers, while Shoei Europe lists them as coming soon. This discrepancy does not establish Spanish stock or a world premiere at the show.

Shoei and Schuberth: HUD and noise cancellation

The "smart" helmet is the trend that keeps coming back at the show. Shoei, an exhibitor, showed the GT-Air 3 Smart at EICMA 2025, and it's still marked "soon" on Shoei Europe's website. Its optional EyeLights visor HUD projects navigation, speed and calls at an apparent distance of three metres; the helmet and the HUD are sold separately. Read our GT-Air 3 review (without HUD).

Schuberth, also an exhibitor, launched the C5 ANC this year, the first modular helmet with active noise cancellation, developed with Cardo, alongside the S3 Carbon full-face. We cover it in our Schuberth C5 ANC analysis.

Off-road: Airoh, Bell and Alpinestars

All three are exhibitors and arrive with freshly launched off-road collections. In August Bell unveiled the Moto-10 GP, the new version of its top motocross helmet: segmented 3K carbon shell, ECE 22.06, DOT and FIM-02 approvals, and a price of €899.99 to €949.99. It has been on sale since September.

Airoh has presented its 2027 off-road collection: five helmets, from the Aviator 3 EVO (carbon shell, ECE 22.06 and FIM approvals) to the entry-level Wraaap, plus the Aviator III, the Aviator Ace 2 (from €399.99) and the Twist 3. Alpinestars is already selling its 2027 motocross collection, with the updated Fluid Apex V2 set and the race-focused Supertech Hiten AFD. More on the brand in our Alpinestars brand page.

Other helmet exhibitors

Nexx, Arai, Scorpion, MT Helmets and Suomy are also on the official list; this article does not yet identify specific show announcements from them. Nexx's latest collection is the 2026 one, presented in January (X.TR and X.RALLY). If you're looking at Shark, see our comparison of the current range.

Two smaller brands have announced products. Kabuto (Hall 7, stand C24) debuts the KF-2F, a racing-derived full-face with MIPS and FIM FRHPhe-02 homologation, and shows carbon versions of the F-17R and the Geosys-R adventure helmet. ROOF (Hall 18, stand C52) presents additions to its 2026-2027 range.

Acerbis will show its X-Flex 2.0 2027 off-road line in Hall 5, stand I54, according to EICMA's October 9 announcement: jersey, pants, gloves, the Airstrike-C helmet and the new Vortex goggles, in white, black and fluorescent yellow.

Gear, footwear and intercoms

Intercoms: Midland, Cardo and Sena

All three makers are exhibitors. The clearest new product for 2027 is the Spectrum EVO (€169), developed by Midland for LS2 helmets and listed as new in the 2027 collection: Bluetooth 5.1, intercom for up to 4 riders at up to 1,200 m, universal connectivity with other brands, 20 hours of talk time, AI-powered noise cancelling, 40 mm RCF speakers, voice control, a companion app and waterproofing. It fits 25 LS2 helmets, from the Thunder GP Pro to the Explorer EVO.

In August Cardo released Mesh Boost, a free update that raises mesh groups to 31 riders on second-generation PackTalk units, and in September it launched an integrated intercom with HJC. From Sena, the reference model in Spain is still the 60S Evo. To choose between the two big brands, see our Cardo Packtalk Edge vs Sena 60S Evo comparison.

Tucano Urbano: Termoscud S-Pro and S

EICMA’s October 7 announcement introduces the scooter leg covers with Scudlock mounting, the four-season system, S.G.A.S. anti-flap system and declared Hydroscud waterproof protection. The S-Pro serves selected maxi scooters and the S selected urban models; check the exact fitment before buying. The report lists Hall 10, stands C88/E89.

Tucano also adds the T.ur Garda Hydroscud jacket, linked to Hall 10, stand E89: two-layer construction, fixed waterproof membrane, removable thermal liner, EN 17092 class A and level 2 shoulder/elbow protectors. The manufacturer listing documents the equipment; this mention is not a road test or a confirmation that it launches for the first time at the show.

Stylmartin Reed: 2027 technical footwear

The September 30 EICMA report explicitly links the Reed sneaker to the brand’s 2027 collection debut at the show. It comes in WP, with a waterproof membrane, and AIR, with breathable mesh lining. The brand declares CE certification and sizes 39–47; the report does not confirm a price. This is an earlier announcement still relevant to the show, rather than news first released this week.

Interphone: security, navigation and emergency accessories

Interphone confirms its lineup in Hall 14, stand E35: Angel location, theft-alert and telemetry solutions through RideLink, Beeline navigation, and Air Pump Power, combining a compressor with an emergency jump starter. Quiklox and FIXX phone mounts also feature. The announcement does not name a new intercom model. Its date range differs from EICMA’s visitor calendar; use the official public days, November 5–8, when planning a visit.

Speed Legends: the MotoGP exhibition

This year EICMA hosts its first major exhibition dedicated to MotoGP history. "Speed Legends" takes up 1,400 m² in Hall 22 with more than 35 bikes, from the 1949 AJS Porcupine on which Leslie Graham won the first 500cc world title, to five bikes from the 2026 championship. In between: the three- and four-cylinder MV Agusta 500s, Valentino Rossi's Yamahas, the Honda NSRs, Kevin Schwantz's and Franco Uncini's Suzukis and the Moto Guzzi 500 V8. There will also be a MotoGP gaming area and contests for experiences at the 2027 Mugello and Misano Grands Prix.

Practical guide to visiting EICMA 2026

How to get there

Fiera Milano Rho has its own metro stop, Rho Fiera, on the red M1 line, about 500 metres from the entrance. From Malpensa airport, the Malpensa Express takes you to Milano Cadorna, where you can take the M1 to Rho Fiera. If you ride there, motorcycle parking in car park PM1 is free; cars have several paid car parks at the venue.

Tickets

Tickets are sold only on the official website eicma.it. A full-day ticket costs €20 plus a €1.50 booking fee. The afternoon ticket, valid from 1:30 p.m. on public days, costs €14 for adults and €7 for children aged 4 to 13. Children aged 0 to 3 get in free. Tickets are single-entry: if you leave, you can't come back in. The €15 launch price ended on September 15.

Tips for your visit

• Set aside a full day: the venue is huge and spread across several halls.
• Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 are the busiest days. If you can choose, Friday tends to be calmer.
• Wear comfortable shoes, because you'll walk several kilometres between halls.
• Many brands hand out catalogues and show-exclusive discounts, so it's worth taking your time at the stands you're interested in.
