Zero has just put the LS1 into full European distribution. If you’ve been watching this bike since we first ran eyes over it, now’s the part where you can actually point, nod and say “that’s the one.” Deliveries began rolling out to every Zero showroom across Europe this month.

Something very cool is happening in East Asia. Compass Rose, a Korean manufacturer, have revealed the Ciulator, and visually, it looks like it escaped from a 1965 Grand Prix paddock. Full fairing, narrow stance, low bars, and a tail that belongs under a race number board. At a glance, it promises clip-on drama and café racer intent.

Earlier this week, Land Moto launched their ADV — and yes, it landed a couple of days before we expected it. First impressions? Good. While it wears a proper ADV stance, LAND’s vision keeps that unmistakable LAND styling that’s helped them stand out from the crowd. Let’s take a look at what’s new, what works, and what we think of this latest e-moto.

At CES 2026, Ultraviolette — the Indian outfit behind the F77 and X47 — rolled out “Violette”, an onboard AI voice assistant designed to make riding safer, simpler, and a whole lot more integrated. Anyone who’s ridden with a Bluetooth lid knows the upside: no phone bolted to the bars, no eyes dropping to a screen, no fumbling at lights. Ultraviolette’s new Violette system aims to push that idea further by baking voice control directly into the bike itself.

During AIMExpo2026, YVOLT quietly—but not that quietly—dropped the Surge V. It’s a 35 kW off-road electric pushing a claimed 948 Nm, packing a 4.3 kWh battery, and already hauling in a fistful of design awards. Visually, it ditches the raw, cluttered look we’ve come to expect from dirt bikes and goes its own way. Before we dig into the nitty-gritty, take a look at YVOLT’s video.

The DVSA is talking about shaking things up. The aim is to improve road safety while making access to motorcycling simpler — and, for once, they’re actually asking riders what they think. If you’re in the UK and trying to get a motorcycle licence, you already know the score. Theory test, Mod 1, Mod 2, age brackets, power limits — a system so segmented you need a flowchart and a healthy bank balance just to get on the road.

Depending on which decade you were born in, the word moped probably means different things. In its original form, though, a moped was a low-powered motorcycle with pedals — there for that extra shove when you needed it. Or when you ran out of fuel halfway home on a Friday night and the wallet was already empty. Tim Seward, founder and chief design officer at ONYX Motors, is a true believer in the format. And he’s already built the ONYX RCR80v, a machine that sits right on t

We live in a world where new battery tech gets announced almost weekly. Big OEMs promise solid-state by 2030, while everyone else throws around terms that all sound suspiciously similar — semi-solid, quasi-solid, LiFePO₄. Well, today Donut Lab dropped something that isn’t “coming soon.” It’s here, it’s real, and already powering production vehicles.

Eyes up, Cali. If you haven’t caught wind yet, regulations have quietly changed state-wide around e-moto bikes — specifically off-road electric dirt bikes. This signals that California is finally admitting that electric dirt bikes without pedals don’t fit neatly into existing boxes.

2026 is rolling in fast, and LiveWire has locked in their new S2 pricing structure. The headline is simple: lower prices, the same hardware, and fewer barriers for riders who’ve been watching from the side-lines.

The Evoke Urban S is an electric roadster built around a 10.04 kWh lithium-ion battery, 20 kW of peak power and a claimed 140 km/h top speed.
