EICMA


Bimota’s Lab Might Have Some New Buns in the Oven When Bimota revealed their KB4 at EICMA, we were pretty jazzed – after all, Kawasaki’s hands in the ‘boutique brand’ were resulting in some pretty neat machines – and now, we’re told that Bimota plans on branching out into other segments.  Source: VisorDown “We are …

CAKE’s just launched their next big thing at this year’s EICMA – and considering the brand’s partnership with FIM for sustainable track management via their own units, it makes sense that the company would think….bigger.  By bigger, we mean better (seeing as the two don’t always go hand-in-hand); CAKE’s website tells us that the new …

Whoever said looks didn’t matter were fibbing…especially if they were talking about this one.  Honda welcomes the CBR1000RR-R into the new decade with a Limited Edition 30th Anniversary version of the Fireblade SP – and the 20YM stripe layout is as fresh as the day the original graced the showroom floor.

The Husqvarna Norden 901 is nearly here – and we still don’t know very much about it.  This is what we know. Originally shown as a concept bike at the Esposizione Internazionale Ciclo Motociclo e Accessori (EICMA), or the Milan Motorcycle Show, in 2019, the Norden 901 was a bike that boasted a visual aesthetic …

You’ll Have to Wait Until Next Year Motorcycle events have been canceled all over the world due to the Coronavirus outbreak. One that hadn’t been decided yet was EICMA. The show is the biggest motorcycle event of the year, and it was recently announced that it would be postponed until 2021.  This comes as no …

The Show Must Go On I reported last week that BMW would not go to EICMA or Intermot. Not long after, I reported that KTM would not go to EICMA or Intermot. When that info was reported, I suggested that other manufacturers could choose to follow the same route in the wake of the Coronavirus. …

No Intermot or EICMA I recently reported on the fact that BMW would not attend Intermot or EICMA due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Now KTM and all of the brands that fall under the KTM umbrella will not be at those shows either. In fact, the company will withdrawal from all global trade shows for …

Will The Company be the Only One BMW Motorrad announced it will not go to Intermot and EICMA this year because of the Coronavirus. The company announced this on April 1, so there was some speculation as to whether or not this was a joke, but it is not a joke. According to RideApart, a …

The dust has settled and the 2019 story of the annual motorcycle extravaganza known as EICMA has arrived. Home Sweet Home I find myself back in snow-covered Alberta, Canada after enduring 12 hours of travel time on the journey home. I’m plopped down in front of my keyboard now, pouring over the vast collection of …
