**2024 EICMA Milan Motorcycle and Bicycle Exhibition: A Feast of Two-Wheeled Vehicles and an Appointment for Innovation** The 2024 EICMA (Esposizione Internazionale Ciclo Motociclo e Accessori) in Milan, Italy, grandly opened on November 5th. As one of the world's largest motorcycle and bicycle exhibitions, this event brings together motorcycle and bicycle manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors from all over the world. It showcases the latest products and technologies and is an important communication and trade platform for the motorcycle and bicycle industry. Milan, a city full of art and fashion, once again becomes the focus of the two-wheeled vehicle world. This year's EICMA is of special significance as it marks the 110th anniversary of the exhibition. This exhibition is of a grand scale, with an exhibition area of 140,000 square meters. A total of 1,200 exhibitors and brands participate, and it is expected to attract more than 200,000 visitors. The range of exhibits is extensive, covering motorcycles, bicycles, electric bicycles, scooters, accessories, clothing, and other fields. In the motorcycle exhibition area, many well-known domestic and foreign brands make their appearances. Among foreign exhibitors, big manufacturers such as Aprilia, BMW, Ducati, KTM, and Honda attract much attention. Aprilia's RS457 has occupied a place in the small-displacement vehicle market with its excellent performance. The street version of Tuono457 also makes its debut at this exhibition. It uses the same 457cc parallel twin-cylinder engine as RS457 and has a unique design language. The front LED daytime running lights and eye-catching taillight design are impressive. Ducati has brought the new Multistrada V2. In terms of appearance, it draws on the design style of Multistrada V4, uses split LED headlights, a larger windshield, and a new aluminum frame. It also showcases the newly launched V-twin engine, providing riders with strong low and medium torque output and a comfortable cruising experience. BMW's M1000RR continues to refresh the performance standard of super motorcycles. The new car has been comprehensively upgraded, including an engine with an increased compression ratio, an adjustable steering angle sensor, and new M-series aerodynamic wings. With a maximum power output of 205 horsepower, it will undoubtedly be the highlight of the exhibition. MV Agusta's Superveloce1000 is also highly concerned. Its Serie Oro limited edition is equipped with up to 41 carbon fiber components and an Alcantara seat, showing luxury and elegance. The production version will simplify the configuration to a certain extent to be more cost-effective, but the core performance will still maintain the same high level as the limited edition. KTM's 390 series has always been favored by adventure enthusiasts. The 2025 390Adventure series offers multiple versions to meet different riding needs. Whether it is the off-road wheel design, the adjustable shock absorber configuration, or the lightweight handling suitable for street riding, riders can find a style that suits them. Japanese brands are not willing to be outdone. Honda has updated almost its entire series of models recently. Rumors say that the Gold Wing will also have a minor facelift. People also expect the long-rumored 400/500 four-cylinder models to appear at the Milan exhibition. Yamaha has launched models such as YZF-R9, R3, and the Y-AMT version of MT-07 in advance. It is expected to officially debut at the exhibition. The updates of the Tenere700 adventure model and the small-displacement street bike MT-03 are also highly concerned. Kawasaki has released a new 1100cc four-cylinder engine and launched models such as Ninja1100SX and Versys1100. Whether the rumored mid-displacement four-cylinder retro model Z400RS with the same engine as the ZX-4R can officially debut is also highly anticipated. Suzuki may bring the DRZ400S/SM version and the GSX250R with variable valve timing (VVT) technology. Domestic brands also shine brightly at this exhibition. CF Moto has previewed models including the 675NK, a suspected electric off-road model, and a model with a large windshield on the front. Its V4 engine can reach a maximum horsepower of 204 and may be installed on the concept car with a large windshield. QJMOTOR claims to bring 60 models to the exhibition. The design language of one of the street bikes is similar to that of the Sai 1000 of the previous year. The two daytime running lights like ox horns are very eye-catching. The vehicle engine may be the engine of the 2009 MV Agusta Brutale1090RR, with a maximum horsepower of 144. Zongshen's RA600 leads the 600 series to participate in the exhibition. The concept model of RA600 has attracted the attention of many foreign media. Its limited-edition RC600 and RA600 concept models are expected to be displayed on site. WUJI is suspected to launch a hardcore adventure model. Judging from the posters and exposed pictures, this car has features such as high and low array headlights, a high windshield, a split windshield design, a narrowed seat, a lowered fuel tank for convenient concentration of gravity, a vertical instrument, inverted front forks, and large-size spoke wheels matched with all-terrain tires. In terms of power, it may be equipped with WUJI's newly designed 900 engine. According to WUJI's vehicle naming method, this car is likely to be called 900GY. The production version of Jedi's K333 will also be unveiled. The photos of its production version in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology are expected to show the actual exhibition state. In addition to the remarkable new models, EICMA also provides a series of activities and seminars to discuss current and future industry trends and technological innovations. Here, professionals in the industry can communicate and learn to jointly promote the development of the motorcycle and bicycle industry. The EICMA exhibition is not only a platform for displaying products but also a stage for inspiring inspiration and promoting innovation. It has witnessed the development history of the motorcycle and bicycle industry and also leads the future development direction of the industry. In this feast of two-wheeled vehicles, people can feel the collision of speed and passion and the fusion of technology and art. As the exhibition progresses, more excitement and surprises will also be presented one by one.
