 |
|
Bimota will be at the Milan Motor Show and that is good news.
I think that Bimota is going to release 2 new models: a street fighter that has a liquid cooled engine, and a Hypermotard type model (no idea on the engine). Seeing that the DB6 did so well, I am excited to see what this new model will look like and how it will perform.
POLL: Who would buy either one of these? |

Neither of those styles is really my thing but if it's true then I see they might be going for the "leisure bike" area. A bit more relaxed riding position with good handling and reasonable power for the road.

ok my beermat design prediction...
A Tesi 3d based bike but with no Engine (saves a few pounds) just a high torque electric motor, air flow regenerative turbines and regenerative brakes and regenerative suspension solar cell bodywork, range 100km to keep the battery weight trading off very well against the Ducati Engine plus oil/petrol/coolant/radiator/silencers etc.... |
