My second Bimota arrived… I thought that would never happened, since my fist Bimota was struck of luck anyway. But here I’m - lucky bastard once again… Bike has 0 miles, all original equipment… only front discs (black) and exhaust bracket is from DB8 since is one of the last in the series. Only to find out today with help of Steve… it has also STM slippery clutch installed.

Congratulations Jure....sure looks fine and I'm sure you'll get used to it and the slipper clutch...just dont forget the DB5 and leave it to languish...both fine bikes......Now get the 4 No. link pipes and ditch the heavy DB killing Underslung Cat box....  Or perhaps you can run her in first I suppose.....Did I send you the workshop manuals for that bike? |

Steve, I doubt that DB5 will be left in the corner, since is really so nice bike... really sweet spot of motorcycling for me.
Still don't have the workshop manuals... you sent me user manual... So very welcome if you have them... Thanks!

Hi Jure...just checked my files of manuals..I think that the Owners Manual...which inlcudes strip down and basic maintenance is the only one I have for the DB7, and same as I have sent you previously...Soz...must have been thinking about DB5/6 workshop manuals...  |

Steady on Jure...next thing you'll find is you'll be moving a bed in there to cut down on visits...just move in to where the bikes are...
A new bike in the FOld always does that ...more so when its a Bimota..theres just such fine detailing that you find yourself wanting to look at time and time again...Have you found the nice tasty steering damper tucked away under the front headlight/headstock yet? Not practical for changing when on the move but a nice to have.... |

Very nice mate! And so the Bimota curse continues... as so many have said, you can rarely stop at just one. Only the strongest of souls have the will power to own one Bimota. Sadly, i don't think this affliction has ended with me yet either. I can't stop myself from looking at bikesales.com in the Bimota section. Surprizingly there's been a couple lately too, a nice yb11 and a bb1 track bike. As well as the usual 12 or 13 newer bims way out my price range.
Some more pics of your new preciuos would be nice

Yes... very nice detail... I started to pul carbon off to see what is all lining underneath... I also want to see how is frameless rear end constructed...
