Although Italian, Bimota’s speciality since it was founded in 1973 has been constructing high-quality sports frames round the best bought-in Japanese engines. The SB6 was introduced in the 1990s with the 1,074cc engine from the Suzuki GSX-R1100, and it was something of a street demon, but even better was the SB6R, which was produced in a limited run of just 600 units from 1997 to 1999 and made extensive use of carbon fibre.
We are pleased to present SB6R number 316, which appears in very fine order having had just four owners from new. The first owner retained it until 2011, when it had covered around 25,000 miles, and after it was sold it did not return to the road until 2025. The present owner purchased it in 2019 from a Scottish motorcycle collection and started making it roadworthy again. The brakes, front forks, water pump and carburettors were all refurbished, with new seals and bushes used where necessary. The wheels were newly powder-coated, and the Bimota finally returned to the road in July, 2025, once issued with an M.O.T. with no advisories which remains valid to the end of June this year. A highly presentable and usable example of one of the greatest superbikes of the ’90s, it is supplied with paperwork including the V5C.
