whilst researching personnel associated with my Tesi project, I came across this interesting blog / report of a couple's visit to the Bimota factory. Yes - it does feature a yellow Mantra - but scroll down if you are interested in the SB8K as there are some interesting snippets about the development of that bike. And also some nice period shots of the factory.
