Notable Features and Pricing

Hand-Built Exclusivity

The YB8 Furano was one of Bimota's most ambitious creations. Hand built in a limited production run of just 150 motorcycles, it represented the ultimate expression of high-performance motorcycling when launched in 1992. With a price tag of approximately $30,000 USD, it was also among the most expensive sports bikes in the world at the time.

Named after a wind that blows across the Adriatic Sea near Bimota's home in Rimini, Italy, the Furano combined exotic Italian chassis engineering with proven Japanese power.

Yamaha Power, Bimota Precision

At the heart of the YB8 sits a tuned version of Yamaha's legendary 1002cc FZR1000 four-cylinder engine. Producing around 140bhp with strong mid-range torque, the engine was further enhanced by Bimota with a Weber-Marelli fuel injection system and a lighter, less restrictive exhaust, delivering exhilarating performance in a remarkably lightweight package.

The result was a motorcycle widely regarded as one of the finest sports bikes available in its era light, fast, beautifully engineered, and exceptionally rare.

Rare Features and Originality

This example retains the sought-after two-piece Akront wheels, a rare feature unique to the YB8 Furano model. The cast iron brake rotors show some light surface rust from lack of use, consistent with careful storage rather than regular riding.

Included with the motorcycle are the original owner's manual and factory tool kit, further enhancing its appeal to collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Investment-Grade Italian Engineering

Combining rarity, originality, and outstanding condition, this 1993 Bimota YB8 Furano represents a unique opportunity to acquire one of the most exclusive and desirable superbikes of the 1990s. A true piece of motorcycling history that remains as captivating today as when it first left the Bimota factory.
