Review
The 2007 Bimota Tesi 2D is a motorcycle that makes a statement, distinguished by its hub-center steering and striking design. At its heart lies a 992cc engine, producing 92.2 Nm of torque at 6,300 rpm. This engine provides ample power for spirited riding, while the six-speed gearbox allows for precise control. Weighing in at a scant 149 kg, the Tesi 2D is remarkably light, contributing to its exceptional agility and responsiveness. The Tesi 2D's unique front suspension system sets it apart from conventional motorcycles, offering a different riding experience that requires adaptation but rewards with exceptional stability. The seat height is 830mm, placing the rider in a commanding position. However, the small 10-liter fuel tank limits its range. The Brembo dual disc front brakes provide excellent stopping power. This motorcycle is aimed at riders who appreciate innovation and are willing to embrace a different approach to motorcycle design and handling. The 2007 Bimota Tesi 2D is a conversation starter, a motorcycle that challenges convention and offers a unique riding experience. Its lightweight construction, innovative front suspension, and distinctive styling make it a standout machine for riders who seek something truly different. It's not just about outright performance; it's about the experience and the statement it makes.

Pros (Advantages)

✅ Why buy this bike?

• Radical hub-center steering provides unique front-end feel and exceptional stability under braking, minimizing dive. • Exclusivity and rarity mean it's a guaranteed head-turner and a significant collector's item with potential for appreciation. • Top-tier components throughout, including Ohlins suspension and Brembo brakes, ensure premium performance and handling. • Lightweight construction for its class, contributing to agile handling and impressive power-to-weight ratio. • Ducati 992cc L-twin engine offers a strong, characterful power delivery with ample torque for spirited riding.
👎
Cons (Disadvantages)

⚠️ Things to consider

• Hub-center steering can feel initially vague and less communicative than traditional forks, requiring an adjustment period. • Extremely high purchase price and limited dealer network make acquisition and maintenance challenging and costly. • Parts availability is very scarce and expensive due to its low production volume and bespoke components. • Practicality is almost non-existent; it's a track-focused or showpiece machine, uncomfortable for long rides. • Resale market is niche, potentially making it difficult to sell quickly despite its collector status.
