CFMOTO V4 SR-RR Takes Over EICMA 2025!
Walking into EICMA 2025 in Milan felt like stepping into a vision of what motorcycling will become. The show in Milan, known globally as one of the largest motorcycle gatherings, was overflowing with energy from the moment the doors opened. More than half a million people filled the Fiera halls across six days, united by a shared love for bikes and vehicles of every kind. Yet among the noise, lights and anticipation, CFMOTO made certain their presence was impossible to miss.
Their “Future Faster” theme hung proudly above the stand, capturing exactly what their engineers and designers have been working toward. After the impressive momentum of 2024, CFMOTO arrived at EICMA2025 with a line up that was bold, ambitious and unmistakably rider focused. For someone who genuinely loves settling into the saddle and chasing roads until the map runs out, this was the kind of show that rekindles every reason you ride.
The V4 SR RR Prototype: CFMOTO’s Most Ambitious Superbike Yet
The moment the covers came off the CFMOTO V4 SR RR, you could hear the reaction ripple through the crowd. This head turning show bike was not simply a concept. It was a declaration. The V4 SR RR prototype feels like the kind of motorcycle that will redefine expectations for what a 1000 cc superbike can achieve.
Powered by a 997 cc V4 engine built with a newly engineered crankshaft and pushing more than 210 hp, the bike sits below the 200 kg mark and carries serious top speed potential. It is a machine designed to challenge established icons such as the Ducati Panigale V4 and the Aprilia RSV4. CFMOTO is clearly aiming at a class once considered untouchable.
The aerodynamics alone captured enormous attention. The winglets adjust to create downforce during acceleration and stability through high speed cornering. Together with semi active suspension and a chassis shaped for both agility and control, the bike felt every bit the premium model it intends to become. Its Akrapovic exhaust delivered the sort of tone that makes riders imagine wide open straights and perfect corner exits.
It is clear that CFMOTO has invested significant R&D into the V4 engine platform, and as the press conferences continued throughout the week, more technical details emerged that only increased the excitement. As a lifelong rider, it is rare to stand in front of a prototype and feel like you are looking directly at the futurebolder, yet that is exactly the feeling the CFMOTO V4 SR RR delivered.
The 1000MT X: An All New Flagship Built for Real Adventure
While the V4 SR RR prototype drew the biggest crowd, the all new 1000MT X claimed its own well deserved spotlight. Built in collaboration with KTM and carrying the latest LC8c parallel twin, this model represents a major evolution in CFMOTO’s adventure category.
With the 83 kW output, a generous torque curve and a massive 22.5 litre tank capable of long touring, the 1000MT X already felt ready for the Australian countryside. Adjustable KYB suspension, Brembo brakes, aerodynamic shaping, heated seat, cruise control and an 8 inch TFT created a combination that balanced comfort and capability.
The dry weight remains at 199 kilograms, and when you settle into the saddle, the balance between chassis stiffness, suspension tuning and throttle response becomes immediately clear. It feels like a bike engineered for real riders, not just brochure numbers.
Its aerodynamics, Pirelli tyres and lightweight design give it a sense of readiness, the sort you instantly recognise if you enjoy long days on the road. This is the flagship bike that sets the tone for CFMOTO’s upcoming 2026 adventure direction.
The 675NK GP Concept: Where Racing Character Meets Midweight Agility
CFMOTO’s presence this year ensured that every category had a standout, and the three models that captured the most conversation naturally included the 675NK GP Concept. Inspired by the Aspar Racing Team, this concept borrows from the world of Moto2 and introduces a vibrant, sporting attitude to the midweight segment.
The GP styling, track minded ergonomics and racing influenced paintwork formed one of the most eye catching designs of the entire EICMA show. The inline triple engine, lively and responsive, gives the bike a personality that feels ideal for riders who love a twisty road.
Even as a preview of what may come, the bike feels more than a styling exercise. It is a celebration of the brand’s classics campaign, highlighting speed, agility and the joy of riding with purpose. It also tied neatly into CFMOTO’s experiencemoretogether messaging, a reminder that riding is about connection and community as much as it is about performance.
CFMOTO’s Broader Vision: Off Road, ATV, Scooter and Electric Progress
Outside the headline motorcycles, CFMOTO used EICMA 2025 to highlight a much wider line up. Their off road and ATV range introduced the CFORCE Tech Gen⁴, featuring e shift technology, electronic stability control, all wheel steering, adaptive front lighting and hydraulic suspension. These innovations show how seriously CFMOTO is taking the off road segment.
Urban mobility also stepped into the spotlight. The ZEEHO AE8 Max and AE7 appeared as part of a growing scooter and electric strategy. The models drew interest from younger riders and commuters who are seeking efficient, head turning solutions for city travel.
Partnerships and production strength were mentioned throughout the press conferences, including the ongoing global relationship with KTM and Bajaj. Together, these alliances strengthen CFMOTO’s capacity to deliver a diverse range of bikes and vehicles.
No matter where you looked, the message was consistent. The brand is growing, evolving and determined to redefine what riders expect. It was easy to feel the energy behind it. This was not just a product display. It was a futurebolder statement of where #CFMOTO is headed.
Final Thoughts: A New Chapter for Riders Everywhere
Leaving the halls of the 82nd EICMA event, the feeling of excitement stayed with me long after the show lights dimmed. This was a year where CFMOTO displayed a line up that was more innovative, more daring and more refined than ever before.
Between the V4 SR RR prototype, the all new 1000MT X, and the 675NK GP Concept, CFMOTO made it clear that they are gearing up for a new era of performance and personality. Whether you love superbikes, touring, urban mobility or off road exploration, 2025 EICMA delivered something for everyone.
