Bimota DB10 Bimotard

DB10
Bimotard. As the name suggests, it’s Bimota’s take on the Ducati Hypermotard,
using the same Testastretta 1100cc L-twin engine found in the Hypermotard – but
being a Bimota, it gets a hand-made tubular trellis frame, which extends down to
an excellent-looking tubular-trellis swingarm.
The Bimotard features a 1078 cc,
air-cooled, v-twin rated at 98 hp (at 7500 rpm). In a package weighing a
claimed 369 pounds dry, Bimota includes a frame that combines a steel trellis
with machined aluminum pieces, and a massive Marzocchi 50 mm fork and an Extreme
Tech shock, both fully adjustable. The DB10 Bimotard also sports the current
braking standard, i.e., radial-mounted, four piston Brembos in front squeezing
320 mm discs. |
