Description
Click here for an CycleVIN Motorcycle History Report on this 2007 Bimota DB6 Delirio. Additional photos are available here for your perusal.
One of the better model names in Bimota history, the DB6 Delirio was a naked standard that was part of Bimota’s rebirth once Roberto Comini acquired the firm in 2003.
It was the “cheapest” Bimota in the lineup, though it’s hard to call any bike cheap when the MSRP was over $30,000. For that money, you got Ducati’s dual-spark air-cooled V-Twin, good for 90 horsepower and 70 pound-feet of torque.
You also got some styling that was unlike any other Bimota.
For more information, check out this review from Visor Down, who summed it up by saying, “think BMX push bike with a motorcycle engine and you won’t be too far off the mark.”
Manufactured in January of 2007, this example is VIN: ZESD699237R000038. The owner acquired it on Iconic Motorbikes roughly 18 months ago.
During his ownership, the seller has covered 27 miles. The odometer shows 3,145.8 miles, however true mileage is unknown as the dash was replaced at 3,056 miles. Per a previous owner (who traded it in to Bartel’s Harley-Davidson), “the original dash cluster went wonky on my friend and Bimota at the time “offered” to sell an updated version. The catch was the price and the entire new chassis harness required, hence the very nice digital and programmable Micro-3 dash. The mileage prior to dash replacement was 3,056.” With that in mind, total mileage is estimated to be 6,201.
It is U.S. and California emissions compliant.
