New Bimota Tera Features Kawasaki Supercharged Engine (Bike Reports) (News)

When Kawasaki acquired its ownership interest in Bimota back in 2019, it was unclear where the storied Italian brand would go. Some light was shed on that at EICMA last month.

The new Bimota Tera was unveiled with an evolution of the unique front suspension design first seen on the Bimota Tesi. Apparently, severe steering lock limitations on the original design have been overcome, among other refinements.

The beating heart of the new, beautiful machine is none other than the supercharged Kawasaki H2 four-cylinder making a claimed 200 horsepower and 101 pounds/feet of torque.

The ergonomics are very much that of a modern cross-over, combining the upright nature of an adventure machine with superbike chassis components and engine.

Bimota has apparently kept wet weight to an extremely impressive 440 pounds, which means the production bike will be ridiculously quick.

We expect Bimota to provide additional information regarding pricing and future availability. Stay tuned.
