This year’s Motorcycle Live at the Birmingham NEC felt bigger, louder, and far more dialled-in than previous rounds. As usual, the halls were packed with full line-ups, prototype teasers, and “coming soon” promises from the big-name manufacturers — but 2025’s show had a sharper edge.

For a while, the “Flying Flea” name has floated around as a single upcoming electric motorcycle, a modern nod to the tiny WWII-era classic. But that’s not the play anymore. Royal Enfield has quietly turned Flying Flea into its own EV platform — the foundation for a family of electric machines. And now we know what’s coming first.

NIU isn’t just playing in the city-scooter sandbox anymore. At EICMA 2025, they rolled out the Concept 06 — not just another commuter, but a forward-looking concept that shows exactly where they think urban mobility is headed.

Following our first round of EICMA coverage, we’re back with a second helping of the weird, the wild, and the genuinely interesting. Sure, the big names showed up in Milan — and we’ll get to their headline stuff in time — but this round is all about the fresh faces, the hidden gems, and the under-the-radar machines that might just hit the streets in 2026.

The Exit: Regrets, Lessons, and the Road Ahead We’ve ridden with Jay Giraud from teenage breakouts to the birth of the HyperSport. But building a dream isn’t all instant torque and zero-to-60 thrills. This week, we hit the hard corners: money, investors, CEO pressure, and the day Jay finally had to step off the throttle.

We recently reported on Dimentro's new play in the two-wheeled EV game as they introduced the Equator — a high-spec commuter that features their cutting-edge CVT drivetrain. But the story doesn’t stop there. At EICMA 2025, Dimentro pulled the wraps off the latest evolution of its already well-equipped DP platform: the DP Pro.

EICMA 2025 is still buzzing, and Milan once again feels like the centre of the motorcycle universe. The world’s biggest bike show has thrown open its halls to a full spectrum of metal and volts—manufacturers, suppliers, tinkerers, and dreamers all showing off what’s next. Here’s a quick rundown of the most interesting bikes, tech, and ideas we spotted on the floor this year.

The HyperSport started as a personal quest that turned into a reality. Born from a drive to make motorcycles safer, it was forged through relentless innovation and a no-compromise approach to design. Riders from every corner showed up: blue-collar Republicans, Silicon Valley tech heads, European commuters, and even gas-guzzling, gun-toting lorry drivers from the South — all lining up to throw down deposits and back the machine.

Sitting in a Milan hotel, gearing up for EICMA 2025, it’s hard to know where to start. The e-moto scene is flooded with new machines, new brands, and a tidal wave of tech — some of it shiny and overhyped. But one manufacturer keeps my attention: GR1T Motorcycles.

From the compact S4 Honcho to the fast-charging Alpinista Corsa, LiveWire’s latest line-up shows they’re serious about growth and innovation.

Back in 2017, Jay Giraud had an idea — one that hit the electric motorcycle world like a torque spike to the gut. An idea bold enough to pull 3600 riders off the fence and make them throw down real money for a bike that, at the time, existed only on paper. An idea that didn’t just challenge the ‘electric vs. gas’ debate — it aimed to bury it.

LiveWire just announced a partnership with Swiss tech outfit c.technology AG to build what they’re calling the next generation connected experience for electric motorcycles. Translation: deeper data, tighter integration, and a bike that knows more about your ride than you probably do.
