Anybody know if the factory is open/does factory tours/museum/display/etc?? I'm off to watch the motogp and am staying in Rimini - thought I'd see if there was anything to see. Anybody know the address?

thanks. Bob.

I don't think theres anything there http://www.bimotaforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=5237

Bimota SA
Sede Secondaria
Via Giaccaglia, 38

I'm at the Misano GP too staying in Cattolica. There's usually a display of MotoGP bikes and photographs in the Cavour Square

Afraid not, Suzuki 650 1981! comfy seat and space to put luggage on the way down and goodies from the Mostra Scambio on the way back. Visit to Paton factory planned in as well.

Do you know I didn't consider going on the train, even from Imola - are you? - is the circuit far from the station do you know?

brutapela Gold as well, seat 158 row Y. Tickets arrived yesterday :0:0

Ha ... J 21 and 20. You went through bookmoto huh ?
We fly to Bologna and take the train to Cattolica on Friday. Hang out Saturday ... we have a moped hired. Race Sunday.

The train is about 2 hours from Bologna but theyre cheap about 20€. Theres a station at Missano id say its about 1/2 hour walk to the track. The problem will be getting out !!! I assume your riding there and back - it will be standing traffic for a while even for bikes.
Forza Rossi

As far as anyone knows the answers are....no...no...no and finally no......You could check how tall the grass has grown since the last photo....it was up to the wall height on the last shot taken...….Building was always rented.....and not owned by Bimota.....Check out Vyrus while youre in and around the area...


Rather strangely though I note that they are now listing the following address as their "home" on the Bimota.it website.

VIA ARIETE 58, Rimini 47923

But there sure doesnt appear to be any factory there


Their address used to be Via Giaccaglia, 38 47900 Rimini...which is looking a bit sad for itself...stripped of most of its Bimota logos and signs...and a for sale sign outside...
