Does that mean it's the same size as the 851 Tesi but with a 400 engine? Gawd, it probably couldn't propel it's own weight....
Cheers, MikeJ |

The 400J Tesi uses a sleeved-down 750SS motor that revs to 11000rpm.
The Omega plates are different to the full-fat Tesi 1's - thats why the Junior Tesi got it's own production run (from frame #1 - #51).
The bike was built at the behest of the Japanese importers.
I know 1 of the 51 has been broken for spares, as parts of it are on my race Tesi

| Hi Hartwig.....the $20,000 on the website for carbon garage...is in New Zealand Dollars...and equates to around 10,000 GBP.....which is the same as the $15,000 USD on ebay....ebay pretty much converts the price to the currency you are in...unless like the other advert it comes from Ebay.us....which evidently shows in USD$....There is someone on here though that has bought a Db6 from that garage and had no issues...does live in New Zealand also... |

Tch tch Brian ...you not been reading your bible lately? Night time daily reading is prescribed as a punishment for the next 2 weeks....how dare you shy away from your knowledge and religion of Bimotisti.......Such punishment to be taken alone and in silence..
Tis a cutesy bike though...I also like the Tesi Junior...which has twin connected ittle oil coolers....
Now I want you to tell me the other 2 out of 4 models that Bimota made in 400cc format...just so I can see you're doing your homework....  :oops |

I'm on the case 
Bad news is it may have already been promised to a USA client
I have asked them to confirm and let me know if it is available 
Went in to check it out this morning photos below,
Its not exactly in mint condition
So will let you know Hartwig if I hear anything
