When we recorded this episode, EICMA was right around the corner, and it's always the time of year when the motorcycle world is buzzing. In this episode of Bore and Stoke, Troy, Nic, and Dennis dig into the biggest headlines leading up to the show — including the all-new MV Agusta Brutale Serie Oro, Honda’s confirmed CB1000GT sport-tourer, and Kawasaki’s revived KLE500.

The guys also break down major industry news:
• Zero Motorcycles moving its operations to Europe
• Yamaha’s electric and PHEV prototypes from the Japan Mobility Show
• Indian Motorcycle’s sale to a private equity firm
• Triumph’s updated 2026 Modern Classics lineup
• Ducati’s next Monster, and more

Then they switch gears to the bikes they’ve been riding lately — the CFMOTO 675SS, Honda CBR1000RR-R, and KTM 990 RC R. From affordable performance to track-ready superbikes, this episode covers the full spectrum of what’s new and next in motorcycling.
