India-Bound Bikes & Scooters From EICMA 2026
THIS is why EICMA means so much for Indian enthusiasts
EICMA 2026 was filled with exciting bike showcases, with multiple brands showcasing their upcoming products. Here's a list of India-bound bikes from EICMA 2026 that could be launched soon:
Royal Enfield Himalayan 750
The Royal Enfield Himalayan 750 was recently showcased at EICMA 2026. It is built on a brand-new platform and gets a new 750cc engine making 55 PS and 63 Nm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. It will be available in two variants, Spoke and Alloy, and will feature adjustable suspension, off-road-ready ergonomics, and lots of tech that will make it suitable for both off-road and highway touring duties. The bike will be officially launched in India at Motoverse 2026, which will be held between November 27 and 29 in Vagator, Goa.
We have tested the Himalayan 750, and here are the top likes and dislikes about the upcoming Royal Enfield ADV.
Royal Enfield Continental GT 750
The upcoming Royal Enfield Continental GT 750 will be Royal Enfield's flagship cafe racer, which will be sold alongside the GT 650. It will get the new 750cc engine, but it will be tuned differently from the Himalayan 750. The Royal Enfield bike will get a new adjustable fork along with a twin-disc setup at the front. The bike will be available in two variants: a standard variant and a faired variant, which gets lowered clip-on handlebars and a semi-fairing for a sportier look.
The Royal Enfield Continental GT 750 will also be showcased at Motoverse alongside the Himalayan 750. However, its official launch is expected in the first half of 2027.

BMW F 450 R & F 450 RR
BMW Motorrad has showcased the new F 450 R and F 450 RR at EICMA 2026.

Both bikes get a tubular steel frame, 17-inch alloy wheels, and premium suspension hardware. They also get modern features such as a 6.5-inch TFT console, riding modes, traction control, and switchable ABS.
The F 450 R could arrive sometime in mid-2027, followed by the F450 RR in August 2027
Moto Guzzi Trip 500
The Moto Guzzi Trip 500 is a neo-retro roadster which was recently showcased. It is based on the Aprilia 457 platform and gets the same 457cc liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine making 47.6 PS and 43.5 Nm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The bike gets a retro-inspired design with a round LED headlight, a muscular fuel tank and a single-piece seat.

The Moto Guzzi Trip 500 will go on sale internationally in early 2027. While its India launch has not been confirmed yet, we hope Moto Guzzi launches it here, considering it will be made at the Piaggio facility in Baramati. If launched, it will be the most affordable Moto Guzzi bike in India and make the brand more accessible.
