This handy guide includes all new or significantly updated street-legal motorcycles for the 2018 model year. Organized in alphabetical order by manufacturer, it includes photos and links to details or, when available, road tests about each bike. This guide will be updated as more new/updated models are announced, and when we’ve had a chance to ride them and report our impressions.
2018 BMW G 310 GS
2018 BMW G 310 GS
Based on the G 310 R (see below), this wee GS has the same 313cc, 34-horsepower single and styling that?s a spitting image of the globetrotting R 1200 GS. First announced in late 2016, production delays bumped it to the 2018 model year.

The little naked bike is powered by a 313cc single that makes a claimed 34 horsepower, and it weighs just 349 pounds. Announced in late 2016 with a press launch in December, production delays bumped it to the 2018 model year.

A blacked-out bagger based on the 6-cylinder, 160-horsepower K 1600 GT sport-touring platform. We rode it at the press launch in Asheville, North Carolina, and then rode it more than 3,000 miles through 14 states in 5 days for a thorough tour test.
