Bimota’s 10th model with a Yamaha engine, the appropriately-named Dieci was built between 1991 and 1994 with just 224 examples leaving the factory. An even smaller portion were equipped with a passenger seat and pegs. Bimota scooped up the engine from a FZR1000 and then tweaked it to yield nearly 150 horsepower.
Of course these classic Bimotas were about more than the engine. You also got Marzocchi suspension and Brembo brakes to pair with the Bimota frame. We’ve sold three of these over on Iconic and the prices ranged from $11k-$17k, so I’m suprised to see an asking price of less than $8k on this example (VIN: ZESS8YA26MRZES003). The paint on the front fairing isn’t correct so it’s possibly gone down before but the seller says that it runs well and everything works. It has a new battery and the odometer shows just over 10k miles, plus it’s got a carbon fiber exhaust.
