The Top 5 2020 Models You Were Most Interested In – Video
MO uses data to craft our next video
Year after year we at Motorcycle.com bring you a video from the Long Beach International Motorcycle Show talking about the bikes we’re excited about. Seeing as the LBIMS is the first chance we in America get to see in the flesh (almost) all of the new models first shown at EICMA earlier in the year, it’s an exciting time for the moto community as a whole. But we’ve come to realize that maybe you’re tired of hearing what we are excited about. Actually, the truth is we’ve found an easier way to bring you a video from the International Motorcycle Show without Evans, Ryan, John, Sean, and I arguing about what’s cool and what’s not. We’re letting you decide. What? How?
Through data, that’s how! Looking at EICMA analytics from Motorcycle.com’s Facebook page, Instagram page, and MO itself, we were able to narrow down the top five motorcycle models you, our readers and followers, were interested in based on traffic to all three channels. Looking at the three lists, we were surprised to find only one entry made all three lists. The rest made the cut by occupying two of the three. There were other interesting surprises, too. For example, not a single Ducati made the list – not the new Streetfighter or Panigale V4. Nuthin. However, a Kawasaki made the cut, but it wasn’t the Z H2.
To see which five motorcycles made the list based on your web and social media traffic, watch the video. This time, if you don’t like it, you’ve got nobody to blame but yourself.
Troy's been riding motorcycles and writing about them since 2006, getting his start at Rider Magazine. From there, he moved to Sport Rider Magazine before finally landing at Motorcycle.com in 2011. A lifelong gearhead who didn't fully immerse himself in motorcycles until his teenage years, Troy's interests have always been in technology, performance, and going fast. Naturally, racing was the perfect avenue to combine all three. Troy has been racing nearly as long as he's been riding and has competed at the AMA national level. He's also won multiple club races throughout the country, culminating in a Utah Sport Bike Association championship in 2011. He has been invited as a guest instructor for the Yamaha Champions Riding School, and when he's not out riding, he's either wrenching on bikes or watching MotoGP.
