Here we offer the chance to own a stunning piece of Italian exotica. Our bike is the Bimota YB6 and is a credit to its 1 former keeper. This particular UK example was late registered in 2002 and has covered just 971 miles and is supplied in the special factory order white and red paint scheme.
"In the 1970s and 1980s, Japan's motorcycle frame design lagged behind that of its engines, meaning that anyone wishing to exploit a motor's full potential had little option but to opt for a bespoke chassis. A number of specialist firms sprang up to satisfy this demand, at the very pinnacle of which was – and still is – the Italian firm of Bimota. Founded in the mid-1960s, Bimota manufactured heating and ventilation ducting before the enthusiasm of two of its motorcyclist founders - Giuseppe Morri and Massimo Tamburini - saw it turn to motorcycle production in the early 1970s. The intervening 40-plus years has seen Bimota established as one of the world's foremost producers of exclusive, limited edition, high performance motorcycles with a reputation for quality second to none".
"Powered by Yamaha's 1, 000cc EXUP engine, the ultra-rare YB6 offered here is one of only 200 made. The current vendor purchased the machine new from a Yamaha dealer in 1989, since when it has covered only 1, 800km. Freshly serviced (new tyres and battery) it is presented in excellent condition and comes with a Swiss Carte Grise".
