Genuine Bimota HB4 Moto2 GP race bike with for sale in Germany – for 169,000 euros!!
We’ve seen enough Bimotas around here, but nothing compares to this find – a genuine Bimota HB4 (the ‘H’ standing for the Honda 600c.c. race spec engine in it) Moto2 GP race bike! For those who may not have been following MotoGP, Moto2 is the new controversial (controversial because it conflicts with the World Super Sport 600c.c. class) GP race class that will replace the 2 stroke 250c.c. machines.
The Bimota HB4 was created specifically for participation in Moto2 racing, and it is the only new Bimota to carry a Honda engine in the last 27 years (its predecessor – the HB3 – was introduced in 1983). In any case, I’ll let the pictures do the talking:

How the seller got their paws on a genuine HB4 I’m not sure, but I do know that this is probably a once in a life time oppourtunity to owning a first year Moto2 race bike. 169,000 euros is a lot of money, but for some rich collector, I am sure it’s worth the price. I’d be all over this if I had that kind of money!

Very cool find Phil! I too was skeptical of Moto2 at first but, I do like the aspect of the teams producing their own frames which does differentiate it from production based 600 classes. Honda having the only available motor should cause a little more discussion.
It looks like the dealer may be taking pre-orders. Regardless, interesting opportunity.

@Teac This is definitely not a roadbike nor ever would be. Far too powerful and expensive to run as one.

Sure make a man dream. I wonder if my wife would file for divorce if I made a bid !!!
@Ray I know what you mean man. I don’t race or anything, but it doesn’t hurt to dream big!
I bet this costs more now. I wish I had the money to pay for this kind of “toy”. 😛
Oh man oh man oh man. That is one awesome bike! I would love to go on one of those, but of course, that will be just a dream. Don’t think my partner will like that idea much. 🙂
