RideApart's Top 5 Bikes of EICMA 2014

There were a lot of impressive bikes unveiled at this year's EICMA - and a few that were underwhelming. We asked the staff to assemble our favorite bikes of EICMA 2014. Here's our list.

Ducati Multistrada 1200

While we're not sure how the new Multistrada will perform on the trail, we're pretty sure it'll be ridiculous on pavement. A sophisticated electronics package (including an Inertial Measurement Unit to maximize the bike's ABS) coupled with the 160hp engine might make this the ADV to beat in 2015.

Energica Eva

Let's get the complaints out of the way: it's only got a range of 95 miles, and it's not exactly cheap. But the Eva still represents forward progress for electric bikes - charge time is reported to be 30 minutes, which isn't bad at all, especially for urban riders who may use the Eva as their commute vehicle. Energica's Ego sportbike has gotten high marks for its performance; the Eva will be powered by the same 136hp engine as the Ego.
