Paris show, sometime late 90s
but it can't be factory with the wheel paint and frilly edging on the mudguards. On the Bimota stand though.
And a cut off rear fender 
Very similar- detail differences are the coloured Bimota logo and an SB6 logo added
and here's the DB2SR show colouring also at Paris that year, that's in Sartis' book and on some brochures, but doesn't seem to have made it to production- not enough purple probably?
not 3 of them- those are mirrors behind . . |
thats really nice got a front view picture |

Cheers Crankie, thats a really nice deep irridescent blue, and the first time I've seen the carbon guards painted on such an early model, evidently nowadays most manufactures paint all the carbon. Not too sure of gthe frilly edging though or the white walled rims? Perhaps intended for the American Market??  |

| Just to say that I have 25th anniversary YB11, these did come from Bimota and have an edition number of the yoke, saying No: xx of 50. As there were only 50 that came from the factory. The ones from ZTK are painted identically but don't have the edition engraved on the yoke so you can easily tell them apart. |
