The world’s biggest motorcycle show, EICMA 2026, will take place in Milan from November 3 to 8. Several manufacturers are preparing to unveil new models, many of which are expected to reach Indian showrooms in the next few months.
Royal Enfield is likely to be one of the busiest brands at the show. The company is expected to debut its Himalayan 750, a new adventure bike with a 750 cc parallel-twin engine. This will be the company’s largest adventure bike to date, offering better touring ability and more advanced electronics.
Alongside the Himalayan 750, Royal Enfield is also expected to unveil the Continental GT 750. This bike will be the larger sibling of the Continental GT 650, with a new 750 cc twin engine and cafe racer styling.
The Continental GT 750 is expected to have a noticeable performance boost, with clip-on bars, a sculpted tank, and twin exhausts. Royal Enfield has already teased the bike ahead of its likely global debut.
TVS has two new models to watch, including the Apache RR 450, which could mark the company’s arrival in the middleweight sportbike class. The bike is tipped to use a 420 cc parallel-twin engine co-developed with BMW, making roughly 48 PS and 43 Nm.
Norton, which is part of the TVS group, is developing a fresh 450 cc single-cylinder roadster using an entirely new framework. This upcoming bike is projected to deliver between 40 and 45 horsepower and incorporate contemporary design elements along with high-quality components.
Hero is expected to show the Xpulse 421, a new flagship above the Xpulse 210. The Xpulse 421 will pack a fresh 421 cc liquid-cooled engine, long-travel suspension, and a more substantial adventure look. This will offer a stronger, touring-friendly alternative within the Xpulse family.
Other manufacturers, such as Harley-Davidson, may also unveil new models, including the Sprint 440, a low-slung cruiser with relaxed ergonomics.
BMW Motorrad may introduce an updated S 1000 RR, featuring refined aesthetics, enhanced airflow, and structural modifications after recent test sessions. There could also be a refreshed S 1000 R, though details on its upgrades remain uncertain.
Moto Guzzi has already introduced the F 450 R—a stripped-down sportbike—and the fully faired F 450 RR, both powered by a 420 cc parallel-twin producing 48 PS and 43 Nm. Additionally, the brand will present the Trip 500, a new roadster marking the start of a fresh era for the Italian manufacturer. It weighs 180 kg in running order, has a 790 mm seat height and goes on sale in early 2027.
Meanwhile, BSA might debut a custom bobber, potentially inspired by the Jawa 42 Bobber or Jawa Perak, combining vintage styling with the engine from the BSA Bantam, which is sold outside India.
