Bimota is a manufacturer of exclusive sports motorcycles that epitomise Italian flare and engineering excellence. Founded in Rimini in 1973 by Valerio Bianchi, Giuseppe Morri, and Massimo Tamburini, the company name is derived from the first two letters of each of the three founders’ surnames. Because of the poor state of frame design in the 1970s, Bimota concentrated initially on building high-quality motorcycle chassis around existing engines and chassis kits for road and race bikes, basing their bikes on the top models from Suzuki, Honda, Yamaha and Kawasaki. As standard frame design improved Bimota offered exclusive limited edition handmade bikes for riders who wanted to stand out from the crowd.

The HB3 was Bimota’s third design based around a Honda engine, in this case the CB1100F DOHC air-cooled four cylinder motor. The styling was by one of Bimota’s founders Massimo Tamburini who later penned the iconic Ducati 916 and it is thought that only 101 HB3s were made, 43 half-faired and 58 fully-faired. This HB3 is offered in good original and standard condition. It has recently been imported from Japan. Not yet registered, it has been duty paid and comes with a NOVA number plus the official Japanese de-reg docs (including the translation needed should it be UK registered).
