EICMA 2025 wrapped up in Milan with a wave of exciting new motorcycles. From Italian hooligans to compact ADVs and the latest electric tech, the 2026 riding season looks packed with promise.

Here are five bikes we can’t stop talking about — and how likely it is that Canadian riders will see them in dealerships by spring 2026.

 

We don’t usually launch a brand-new lid in the fall, but the RKT 240 has been such a runaway hit in Canada that we couldn’t wait for spring. Meet the RKT 240-SERIES REACTOR™—a fresh graphic on our best-selling helmet platform, landing just in time for those crisp, golden rides when the bugs are gone and the roads are all yours. If you loved the Solar Flare, this one’s the same recipe of comfort, performance, and value—now turned up visually and available in four new colourways: Red, Red/Yellow, Pink, and Grey. Yes, all four are in stock (for now). 

Every year, new motorcycles hit showrooms around the world — and every year, Canadian riders get hit with a dose of FOMO. From retro scramblers to high-tech sport tourers, there’s no shortage of incredible bikes being sold in Europe and Asia that never make it to Canadian dealerships.

When most riders gear up, they think helmet, jacket, gloves… and often stop there. But here’s the truth: motorcycle riding shoes are one of the mostimportant—and most overlooked—pieces of safety gear you can own. Your feet and ankles do way more than just keep you upright; they control braking, shifting, and balance. If they’re injured, you’re not just off the bike—you’re out of commission.

After three rounds of wheel-to-wheel intensity, the final showdown unfolded at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Bowmanville.The racers had already set the stage—Young, Dumas, Guerin, and Szoke all within shouting distance in the championship. Everything came down to this: one race, everything on the line.

 

Riders often debate whether it's better to be too hot or too cold while riding. Both conditions present unique challenges and considerations for comfort, safety, and overall enjoyment. Let’s delve into the pros and cons of each scenario to determine which is more manageable.
