Update: The seller has notified us that this bike is sold. Congratulations to buyer and seller! -dc
I know, an all too common tale amongst Bimota offerings in our Feature Listings. But I think you’ll agree after reading that this was recently purchased with the intent to ride and personal circumstances have changed that fate for this bike.
From the seller:
I bought this bike from a collector in Arizona a few months ago. I just had it fully serviced. I just had unexpected rotator cuff surgery and won’t be able to ride for 10-12 months. I haven’t even ridden the bike. I just bought a Ford GT so I decided to sell this bike.
It is pristine, no blemishes at all. Been stored in climate controlled space and it shows. A really a nice piece. All original. $8,700.
If this bike looks familiar you’re not seeing double. It is the bike that was sold off in this 4 bike sale in Arizona last November. Except now it has fresh oil and filter, and a fresh battery. It’s ready to ride.
YB11 Cliff notes: Utilizing the potent Yamaha 1000cc Thunderace motor, Bimota wraps it’s own bike around it with 51mm shocks, adjustable rake via eccentric bushes in the steering headstock, and the entire package weighs 31 pounds less than the Thunderace. Only 650 were built.
Add this bike to your collection and enjoy the entire season of good riding weather in style. Good luck with the sale Patrick!

Nice clean Bimota . The stuff RSBFS keeps people coming back for ! Good luck to seller and buyer . Like !
Shame you never got to ride it, you would love it if you did. You do it an injustice when you claim it’s 31lbs lighter than the Thunderace – it’s actually 31 Kilos!
Good look
An impressive share, I just now given this onto a colleague who had previously been doing a small analysis with this. Anf the husband in reality bought me breakfast simply because I found it for him.. smile. So i want to reword that: Thnx with the treat! But yeah Thnkx for spending some time to talk about this, Personally i think strongly about it and really like reading much more about this topic. If possible, as you become expertise, can you mind updating your blog post with additional details? It really is highly ideal for me. Massive thumb up for this writing!
