KTM 390 Adventure – The long wait for the KTM 390 Adventure has finally ended and the bike has been showcased at the EICMA 2019. Interestingly, the motorcycle has been unveiled in just alloy wheel version and the company believes that the reason behind is to strike a perfect balance between on and off road usability instead of pure off roading. The KTM 390 Adventure will be unveiled in India at the India Bike Week in the coming weeks with an official launch expected in January 2020.

Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade – At the 2019 EICMA, Honda has taken the wraps off the new CBR1000RR-R Fireblade which looks absolutely striking, to say the least. The bike is a major departure compared to the outgoing model and with the 2020 model, the Fireblade has now entered the 200hp club. The new model is Euro-V compliant and the engine is good for producing respective power and torque outputs of an impressive 214hp and 113Nm. Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India has recently announced that it will start manufacturing selected big bikes in India and the new Fireblade might be one of them.

Ducati Streetfighter V4 S – The all-new Ducati streetfighter V4 S made its global debut a few days ahead of the 2019 EICMA. Now the maniac litre class naked is present at the annual event as well and is most likely to be launched in India in the coming months. Based on the fully faired Panigale V4, the streetfighter V4 gets minimalistic design with a wide handlebar. The bike gets an all-LED headlamp with the same engine that powers the Panigale V4. Since Ducati sells its flagship Panigale V4 in India, it is most likely that the streetfighter V4 will also land here in the coming months alongside the more premium 'S' version.

Benelli Leoncino 800 – The bigger Leoncino 800 has been unveiled at the ongoing EICMA 2019. The front end of the motorcycle gets an all LED oval shaped headlamp that looks similar to the unit on the Leoncino 500. The engine is a 754cc, parallel twin unit that is good for shedding out 81hp of power and 67Nm of torque. The Italian scrambler gets 17-inch rims at both ends with dual purpose tyres. Benelli is currently quite aggressive in its product strategies for India and already has the Leoncino 250 and Leoncino 500 on sale here. Therefore, we expect the Leoncino 800 to also land in India sometime next year.
