2000 Bimota DB4 ZESDB4J00YR000016 – 490 miles / 791 kilometers

Powered by Ducati’s 904cc Desmodue V-twin with electronic fuel injection, the DB4 i.e. combines the character of Ducati’s air-cooled twin with Bimota’s lightweight chassis, premium suspension, and hand-built construction. Compared with earlier carbureted DB4 models, the i.e. benefits from improved fueling and easier day-to-day operation while retaining the compact dimensions and low weight that define the model.

This early-production example remains highly original and presents as a well-preserved motorcycle with exceptionally low mileage.
