If you want Italian style with big power, the Bimota SB6 was the way to go. Bimota wrapped Suzuki’s reliable and tunable, liquid-cooled, 1074cc inline four in a rigid frame and lightweight bodywork, shaving nearly 100lbs off of the fast (but heavy) GSX-R in the process. This thing is quick even by modern standards, with a tested top speed of over 170mph. It really was the best of both worlds: Suzuki power meant endless tuning options and easy parts availability, while the Bimota design made for low weight, impressive agility, and incredible exclusivity!
Around 1,100 units were produced and — as is typical of Bimota — the SB6 was loaded with the very best components, straight from the factory. These included:
Brembo brakes.
Öhlins shock.
Paioli forks.
Ample carbon fiber.
This example is VIN: SB600288.
The odometer shows 7,305 kilometers (4,539 miles).
Maintenance:
