Bimota DB6 Delirio
Bimota have launched a naked bike so user-friendly, that you could commute, tour or take a trackday on the DB6 Delirio. But this is still a Bimota of the old school; expensive, beautifully intricate and very much a personal vision of its designer, Sergio...
Bimota SB7
The successor to the SB6 had one very significant change; a fuel injected GSXR750 Suzuki motor, delivering even more horsepower. The SB7 was another step along the road for Bimota in refining their unique vision of what the ultimate sportsbike should be...
Bimota SB 8K Gobert Replica
Bimota refused to lie down and another batch of bikes has been assembled, based on the famous World Superbike race winning machine, Which Anthony Gobert took to victory in Australia. Can this latest bike revive Bimota’s fortunes? Chris Pearson rode this...
Bimota SB8 R
Take a good look at the Suzuki TL1000R, or the S variant, and you might wish the Suzuki had made their big V-twin sportbike a bit funkier looking. Then cast your gaze over the voluptuous curves of the Bimota SB8R and realise the truth; Japan may make some...
Bimota Superleggera
The TB series of Bimota machines have an impressive pedigree stretching back to the early 1980’s, but the 1990’s YB11 is perhaps one of the more unusual models, in that it’s almost a sports tourer. With an engine lifted from Yamaha’s Thunderace 1000, the...
Ducati 888SSS
The Ducati 888SSS was the factory’s ’racer for the road,’ before the stunning 916SPS appeared. Developed in the late 80s from the 851 production racer model, the ’triple eight’ was immediately hailed by the press as a classic Duke in the making. A mouth...
Bimota Supermono
Single cylinder bikes are definitely an acquired taste, but paying ten grand for a tuned up Funduro probably doesn’t sound that exciting to a BSA Gold Star owner. That was the fundamental problem with Bimota´s rather fetching looking Supermono. Despite...
Bimota Tesi Millennium 2004
Tesi means test or theory in Italian and started life as an engineering exercise back in the 1980’s at Bimota, before appearing to lukewarm praise in the 1990’s. The bike has been regarded as a something eccentric ever since, but as few manufacturers,...
BMW K1200RS 2002
Not many people know that BMW once publicly declared they were finished with making flat twin powered machines, and saw their future bikes being exclusively fours and triples. But the K1200RS is proof that they made the concept work, even if BMW bike fans...
BMW F650 Scarver
BMW make some outstanding twin cylinder bikes, that are loved by bikers who want to go the distance on two wheels. But what about beginners, or commuters, who simply don’t need an 1100cc sized bike? Enter the F650CS Scarver, a unique looking all-rounder,...
Ducati ST2
Touring on a Ducati is a contradiction in terms for most bikers. The Italian machines are renowned for many things, but bimbling along admiring the scenery isn’t usually top of the list. So, the ST2 sports-touring model was a bold step for the Bologna...
Honda 600FS Hornet
Most retro machines offer great biking because they are essentially stripped down versions of the company’s sportsbikes. The Honda Hornet is a slower, more comfy variation on the successful CBR600F model, which is one of the best starting points in modern...
