HERE's Bimota's supercharged Impeto and Tesi 3D RaceCafe, which have just been shown for the first time at the Eicma motorcycle show in Milan.
The Impeto is described as a 'hyper-naked' using the 162hp Testastretta engine from Ducati’s Diavel, with an optional supercharger giving the 1198cc V-twin a boost in power and torque of 15-20%.
The firm says the supercharger kit has been developed for Bimotas using Ducati liquid-cooled engines and turns the new Impeto into a ‘true tyre burner’.
The Impeto comes with ABS, ride-by-wire throttle and traction control, and can be offered with carbon fibre swing-arm and frame tubes.
The ‘Tesi 3D RaceCafe’ is a café racer version of the existing hub-centre-steered Tesi 3D Naked.
It can be raised or lowered by up to 23mm by adjusting the front and rear swing-arms, the firm said.
For people who want to build their own Bimota, the firm is offering a kit version of its BMW S1000RR-powered BB3.
The ‘BB3 Kit’ consists of a ‘complete rolling chassis with all the necessary parts to build a fully functional motorcycle except for the engine and electric/electronic systems that come from BMW’.
