Il lancio della KB1 fu fatto con uno slogan che racchiudeva in sé tutta la filosofia dell'Azienda riminese e dei suoi capostipiti, Giuseppe Morri e Massimo Tamburini: Bimota, il mestiere pignolo di perfezionare quello che sembra perfetto .
Sviluppata su un telaio tubolare al cromo molibdeno ed equipaggiata con i motori della mitica Kawasaki Z 900 e Z 1000, la KB1 è stata per molto tempo il modello che ha rappresentato il maggior successo di vendite per la Bimota. Venduta come kit o come moto completa, la KB1 ha rappresentato un importante step evolutivo rispetto al primo modello dell'Azienda, la HB1, che fu prodotta in soli 10 esemplari.
Questo esemplare è stato immatricolato il 2 marzo del 1979 nella provincia di Rovigo e ha avuto soltanto 2 proprietari. Da molti anni è parte della collezione di un appassionato motociclista: sempre manutenuta con cura è qui offerta per la prima volta in asta.
The KB1 was launched with a slogan that encapsulated the entire philosophy of the Rimini-based company and its founders, Giuseppe Morri and Massimo Tamburini: Bimota, the fussy business of perfecting what seems perfect .
Developed on a tubular chrome-molybdenum chassis and equipped with the engines of the legendary Kawasaki Z 900 and Z 1000, the KB1 has long been Bimota's most successful sales model. Sold as a kit or as a complete bike, the KB1 was an important evolutionary step from the company's first model, the HB1, which was produced in only 10 units.
This example was registered on 2 March 1979 in the province of Rovigo. For many years it has been part of the collection of a passionate motorcyclist: carefully maintained, it is offered here for the first time at auction.
