Top Sports Bike Unveiled At EICMA 2025: Kawasaki ZX-10R, TVS Tangent RR & More

The EICMA 2025 show in Milan was full of excitement for bike lovers. Big brands showed off their latest machines, focusing on style, performance, and future-ready ideas. From Kawasaki’s updated ZX-10R to Norton’s new Manx range and TVS’s bold Tangent RR concept, each brand gave a glimpse of what the next generation of motorcycles will look like.

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R 2026

The 2026 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R arrives with clever updates instead of a complete redesign. The bike now wears new bodywork with integrated winglets that improve aerodynamics and add about 25 percent more downforce. This helps keep the front stable during hard braking and cornering.

The familiar 998cc engine continues, now cleaner with Euro 5+ compliance, and the electronics have been fine-tuned for smoother performance when exiting corners. Furthermore, it gets Showa units re-tuned for 2026 and an Ohlins steering damper is now standard.

The Kawasaki bike also features new Bridgestone RS12 tyres for better grip and confidence. Inside, there’s a fresh 5-inch TFT display with voice commands and navigation, which makes the ZX-10R feel more user-friendly both on track and on the road.

Norton Manx and Manx R

Norton made a strong comeback at EICMA with the new Manx and Manx R motorcycles. Both are powered by a 1,200cc V4 engine producing 203bhp and 130Nm of torque. The Manx is a muscular naked street bike, while the Manx R is its fully faired, sportier sibling.

Both combine classic British design with modern engineering, using a lightweight aluminium frame and single-sided swingarm. They come with multiple riding modes, a quick shifter, and an 8-inch TFT display for all the bike’s settings.

The Manx R looks particularly striking with its twin-pod LED headlamp and sharp fairing lines, while the Manx keeps things clean and strong with a bold naked design. Together, they signal Norton’s return to serious performance motorcycling with style and substance.

TVS Tangent RR Concept

The TVS Tangent RR Concept was another crowd-puller, showing how TVS plans to blend its racing experience with daily usability. The concept uses a lightweight monocoque frame that helps reduce weight and improve stability.

Its aerodynamic body looks sculpted by the wind, with a design made for speed yet easy to handle in town. TVS says the Tangent RR focuses on the connection between rider and bike rather than just lap times.
