Bimota DB Mantra, With Ducati Motor description
1998 Bimota DB 3 Mantra. Original new price was $ 20,000. BIN is less than half of that. ........................Reserve a bit lower Added it to my collection in 2004 with only 8010 miles. Rare red color with only 25 made from what I have read, with a total of 454 made, mostly yellow. To clarify: The Mantra comes with a Ducati motor as produced. Motor is original in this bike. Looks and runs well. Brake and tail light now working, since video was made. You Tube video: LARGER pictures can be e-mailed, direct if closer look for blemishes is desired. Bike always stored indoors , and run every couple of months to keep healthy. Have very large bike collection being thinned down to make more space. See pictures. Numerous pictures to show the good and the bad of it. Overall, a pretty well preserved bike. Videos on You Tube. 64 year old owner, former bike wrench and former shop owner. Every effort has been made to show condition of bike with pictures and video. Can e-mail better, larger pictures directly , on request. Bike in good cond, though no warranty expressed or implied. Sold AS - IS . Payment by cashier check, must clear for bike to be released. Chase or Wells Fargo the quickest. Cash , in person, works, too. :o) Reserve lower than Buy It Now price, though Buy It Now goes away when reserve is hit. To would be snipers: I don't blame you, though be careful in that the connection can freeze up in the last minute. Bid early and often, since bike subject to local sale and auction could end early.

Xaus tests Moto2 Bimota
Thu, 22 Dec 2011World Superbike regular, Ruben Xaus was impressing some track day regulars with his skills earlier this month at Almeria. The lanky Spaniard (who is now apparently a part owner of Bimota), was putting the Rimini manufacturer's Honda CBR600-powered Moto2 machine through its paces in the December sunshine. The short term plan if for it to be raced in domestic championships but I for one would love to see it on the MotoGP Moto2 grid.
2014 WSBK – Aragon Results
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Reigning World Superbike Champion Tom Sykes put on a clinic this weekend, leading every lap in both races to claim a pair of wins at Spain’s Motorland Aragon circuit. Sykes’ Kawasaki teammate Loris Baz was right there with him, recording a pair of second-place podiums to give Team Green a pair of one-two finishes. Sykes and Baz were also one-two in the Superpole qualifying on this nearly flawless weekend for the Kawasaki factory team.

Thu, 28 Aug 2014Bimota has failed to meet the World Superbike Championship‘s homologation requirements and will not be allowed to participate in the rest of the 2014 season. Bimota had been under probation where it was allowed to race but would not receive any championship points for its efforts, until it could produce 125 street legal examples of its BB3 superbike. The probationary period has now ended and Bimota has informed series promoter Dorna and the FIM that it has not met the 125-unit minimum required for homologation.
