The Bimota nameplate needs no introduction to motorcycle enthusiasts. In 1973 the company was founded by Valerio Bianchi, Giuseppe Morri, and Massimo Tamburini—the last of whom is credited with some of the greatest motorcycle designs of the modern era, including the Ducati 916 and MV Agusta F4. Bimota’s earliest motorcycles were built around engines sourced from leading marques such as Honda, Kawasaki, and Suzuki. This turned full circle in 2019, when Kawasaki acquired a large stake in the Italian company.
Since then, motorcycles wearing the Bimota badge boast Japanese power with stylish Italian design, including the impressive Tesi H2. The bike is propelled by a supercharged 998 cc inline-four engine for a return of 228 brake horsepower, which—with a dry weight of just 207 kilograms—gives the Tesi true superbike status.
The Tesi H2 offered here is the only known example made in Carbon Green—selected by its one and only owner as a nod to Kawasaki’s iconic green branding—and was ordered via Power Kawasaki Cannes in April 2022, prior to being delivered and registered for the road three months later. The Bimota is numbered “075” of the 250 bikes built, and has been used incredibly sparingly, with just 351 kilometres on its odometer at the time of cataloguing. The Bimota was serviced by its supplying dealer in August 2023.
This motorcycle has either been driven for no more than 6,000 kilometres or is less than six (6) months of age from new. For this reason, the motor car can be considered ‘as new’ for VAT purposes.
Cette moto n'a pas parcouru plus de 6 000 kilomètres ou est neuve de moins de six (6) mois. C'est pourquoi elle peut être considérée comme "neuve" selon la TVA.
