This is an AI-generated digest of global and domestic motorcycle news. For full details, please read the original article.

An explainer breaks down active aerodynamics, movable winglets that auto-adjust angle based on speed and brake pressure. On the Bimota KB998 Rimini, the wings flatten above 100mph to cut drag and rise under braking to generate downforce, moving through a 15-degree range in under 0.5 seconds. The FIM plans to ban such variable winglets in Superbike racing starting in 2027.
