I must say regarding the looks, I wasn't sold at first, as the Concept that's been floating around the web for a few years looks a fsir bit better. I do concede that looking at it for two days now, it has already started to grow on me.

A trellis frame? Ya hear that Ducati? A TRELLIS FRAME. I like that “naked” bimota

2:20 also, in the case of an accident, you can get blisters on your hole... honestly, it's too good to be a mere design decision, it's actually a feature

Gorgeous bike

Looks good. Prefer the naked. Italian style with Japanese electronics and mechanicals sound like the best of both worlds. Can't make my mind up about the deep side profile and stubby tail though. But at least it's different.

Wow. I really like how this looks. I'm a sucker for innovative and rare tech as well. (The kind that works). If the pricing is within reason, I would choose this over the 2021 zx 10.

Never heard of such things before. Thanks :)

Another great post

they should have used another headlight for the Tesi H2

As a former Bimota owner (SB3 & YB10) I love the KB4 looks however that awful Kawasaki Exhaust will have to go .

The arrow is stunning - hopefully available on both bikes

Strange, the KB4 looks beautiful from some angles and fugly from others. Damn shame that Kawasaki owns a big share , I always felt the Ducati powered Bimota's were far more appealing (more exotic). Cheers 👍👍

nice

AFAIK It's common that both forks and shock preload is set manually on electronic suspension.

Fair enough! Not on the WP stuff on the KTMs but I need to do my research on the Marzocchi 👍

*Not your actual house. So, it's your old house in Laandaan?😂 That KB4 might grow on me, if I give it several years.

Hope they are going to protect that fan under the rear of the machine, its vulnerable where it is.

The head light seems the same from the Kawasaki Z900RS

If you cut the bottom off it the rest looks like it would make a decent dinghy.

As we all know, or should, weight has a huge influence on a motorcycle, it effect the braking performance and handling/agility. For instance I've just removed the stock silencer and replaced it with a carbon unit on my Street Triple...Feel the difference even without riding like a hooligan. ....€64,000...I believe if I had that amount to spend on a Bike I'd go for a top Spec Ducati....

Its not pretty,but as Bimota dont build a lot of bikes they can do stuff like this,but its more pleasing than the Mantra that they made years ago,that was a howler...

The Hipsters must have more money than sense

YOU wrote €64.0000!!

64,000 euros = $72,330 dollars

Best bang for the buck = Aprilias rsv4 217hp 16,000$ new

The ugly retro look. No thanks.

One of the ugliest weird motorcycle made by Bimota, their previous tesi H2 had a lot,in terms of looks and tech.but this one just tech. I really like tesi's unconventional steering and damping system.

1st Bimota I dislike the looks 😒

HIGHEST HP FOR STREET LEGAL SUPERBIKE IS THE DUCATI V4R AT 240hp The kawasaki h2 makes 200hp NOT 230hp the kawasaki h2r is not street legal and needs factory engine rebuild every 1500 miles

But it looks fat.

Bimota have gone from making some of the most beautiful and avant guard motorcycles in the world, to producing complete abominations. Maybe it’s the Japanese majority ownership.

Just do not like their design

Yuk! Ugly. DB5 R/S, the best Bimota of all time.

Super ugly who would buy this? To much money and no taste?

I thought their H2 abomination was bad enough, but that KB4 is fuck-ugly for how much? Exposed screw heads on the slab-sided panels is aggravatingly amateurish. Those same girthy panels are then interrupted by the randomly dipping bottom corner of the tank to make it look like a mouse slip in the CAD program. Instead of 70's retro done poorly, why not go buy the actual Zed and spend some pimp money on it.

The benefit of mounting the radiator at the rear is you can make the bike look even more ugly at the front. 🙄 They should contract Adrian Morton to design their next models. At least they won't look as ugly as these and the previous model. I can only guess with these new Bimota designs they want to drive consumers to buy their Japanese brethren as in Kawasaki, because those are far better looking motorcycles...

Ugly, that’s ugly, it is strange for an Italian brand but it is.

such an ugly bike. yuck

The new bimota great engineering, fucking awful looks though.
