Bimota

[Saint rob]

I thought this would grab your attention Rob, just waiting to see your reaction time
A totally unique 1 off bike that was originally a mock up that was displayed at all the major shows to collect orders before the production run. Unfortunately they went bust before producing it and this was snapped up by an Italian collector before being bought by a 73 year old es TT racer whose name I couldn’t get

Those 2 carbon fibre swinging arms and the Omega frame parts are exquisite. There were loads of brackets milled from billet, including the handlebars and the top of the rear suspension unit and bottom of the front one were fitted with eccentric adjusters- loads of other trick bits too. The guy who owns it said he had a garage full of Bimotas but he fancied a ride out on that one on saturday to which I said “well I’m glad you did”

I'd like to ride it, but it would look like a monkey f'n a football.
