Bimota DB Mantra, With Ducati Motor description

 1998 Bimota  DB 3 Mantra. 

Original new price was $ 20,000. 

BIN is less than half of that.

........................Reserve a bit lower

 Added it to my collection in 2004 with only 8010 miles.

Rare red color with only 25 made from what I have read, 

with a total of 454 made, mostly yellow.

To clarify: The Mantra comes with a Ducati motor as produced.

Motor is original in this bike.

Looks and runs well. 

Brake and tail light now working, since video was made.

  You Tube video:  

LARGER pictures can be e-mailed, direct if closer look for blemishes is desired.

 Bike always stored indoors , and run every couple of months to keep healthy.

Have very large bike collection being thinned down to make more space.

See pictures.

Numerous pictures to show the good and the bad of it.

Overall, a pretty well preserved bike.

 Videos  on  You Tube. 

64 year old owner, former bike wrench and former shop owner.

Every effort has been made to show condition of bike with pictures and video.

Can e-mail better, larger pictures directly , on request.

Bike in good cond, though no warranty expressed or implied. Sold AS - IS .

Payment by cashier check, must clear for bike to be released.

Chase or Wells Fargo the quickest.

Cash , in person, works, too. :o)

Reserve lower than Buy It Now  price, though Buy It Now goes away when reserve is hit.

To would be snipers:

I don't blame you, though be careful in that the connection can freeze up in the last minute.

Bid early and often, since bike subject to local sale and auction could end early.

 

Thanks........... Chris

Ruben Xaus and Bimota Target WSBK Entry in 2013

Mon, 23 Jan 2012

Italian manufacturer Bimota is looking to return to racing, with plans to compete in the 2013 World Superbike Championship as either a wild card or full time entry. Helming Bimota’s racing project is its sporting director and former WSBK racer Ruben Xaus. Speaking with Italian website Motoblog.it at the Motor Bike Expo in Verona, Italy, Xaus says the team would like to race full time in 2013 but may start as a wild card before fielding a full entry in 2014.

A real Monster of a bike

Wed, 13 Jun 2012

The bike above was once a Ducati Monster S4. It was restyled by Italian custom builder Ferruccio Codutti who took a year crafting the look out for aluminium for one of his customers. Ignoring the grotesque nose, Codutti's work is impressive as the front end was made by the man himself.

2010 Vyrus 987 C3 4V [video]

Wed, 14 Apr 2010

The new Vyrus 987 flies high even in the rarefied air of ultra sportbikes. It marries a 185-horse Ducati 1198R engine with a hub-center-steered Bimota chassis unlike anything else on the market. Still not cool enough for ya?
