2008 Bimota DB7 Oronero

In Italy, Sport by Abhi3 Comments

The Bimota DB7 continues the Italian company’s ethos of building exquisite frames and bodywork around existing high-performance engines. The first letter of the model name clues you in as to where the engine came from – the “D” in DB7 stands for Ducati. Specifically, this bike comes with the 1099cc desmo engine as found in recent Ducati superbikes. Even better, it’s the Oronero (Black Gold) version, which takes the DB7 and then covers it in carbon fiber.

The Bimota is chock full of top-shelf components, like Marzocchi forks, Brembo Monobloc calipers, and the fully adjustable ExtremeTech rear shock. But what truly makes this bike stand out is the way this bike is made. The oval section chassis (with adjustable ride height), wonderfully milled aluminum rearsets (also adjustable), and carbon fiber everywhere make this a bike that you will rarely see anywhere else on the road.

The Bimota…is a beautiful work of art, handles like a dream and has awesome real-world V-Twin power that makes it more accessible to more riders. – Cycle World, August 2010
