This year, at the EICMA show in Milan, there have been several updates and new adventure and touring motorcycles on display. Here's a list of the top five adventure bikes from EICMA and all that they offer.
Italian motorcycle brand MV Agusta has revealed an updated Brutale 800 RR for 2017 at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan, Italy. The 2017 model gets a 140bhp engine which now meets Euro4 regulations along with new forged wheels and updated electronics.
Vespa will be going electric! Yes, the most well-known scooter brand in the world has teased a concept version of the electric scooter, called Elettrica at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan.
For those looking for a small, lightweight, mini-ADV bike, then the new Honda CRF250 Rally revealed at the EICMA motorcycle show ticks all the right boxes - it's even got the right look and equipment for off-road use.
The big daddy of adventure-touring bikes - the BMW R1200 GS - has been updated for 2017, now meeting Euro4 regulations and some additional electronics. The 2017 bike is available in Rallye and Exclusive packages, the difference being in different colour and protections pieces.
After a quick reveal in images at INTERMOT last month, Kawasaki has officially unveiled the new Z650 and Z900 street-fighter bikes at EICMA in Milan. Both the Z650 and Z900 are replacements to current ER-6n and Z800 in the bike maker's line-up and get updated with more power, improved styling and revised underpinnings.
BMW has unveiled what it calls an advanced prototype of the HP4 Race at the EICMA show in Milan, with carbon fibre twin-spar frame and wheels. Based on the S 1000 RR, BMW plans to make the HP4 Race a production model, with an expected launch date sometime in late 2017.
Along with the all-new DL250 V-Strom, Suzuki Motorcycle has introduced the GSX-250R in Europe at EICMA, just weeks after being unveiled in China. The Japanese two-wheeler marque's latest offering in the super sport category will compete in the highly popular 250cc segment.
Having leaked online a few days ago, Ducati Motor's maniacal new superbike - the 1299 Superleggera - has officially made its debut at EICMA this year. Making the model very special is the fact that the new 1299 Superleggera is the lighest mass produced bike with the most powerful twin-cylinder engine powering the rear wheel.
