BUCK CITY BIKER

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.

For bikers who already know what to expect from the F77 line, this new machine feels like a natural extension, but with a twist.
