The 2016 Bimota DB10 Bimotard
Bimota built the 2016 DB10 Bimotard as a hand-assembled, Ducati-powered take on the supermoto formula, sitting apart from mainstream production bikes as a small-batch specialist's machine rather than a volume seller. It pairs a torquey L-twin with Bimota's own trellis chassis work, so the riding experience leans toward sharp, direct steering and a chassis that rewards commitment on tight, technical roads rather than long highway stretches. This is a bike built for flicking through switchbacks and city traffic with immediacy, not for touring comfort, and ownership means accepting a boutique-brand relationship: fewer dealers, more hands-on maintenance, and parts sourcing that requires patience. The 2016 model carried over without significant mechanical changes from the prior year — buyers comparing it to a 2015 example should focus on mileage, service history, and condition rather than spec differences. The typical buyer here is an experienced rider who already owns or has owned a mainstream supermoto or naked bike and wants something rarer, often a Ducati or Italian-exotic collector looking to diversify into Bimota's small production runs. Collector interest sits at a moderate level, with values driven more by condition and documented history than by raw numbers, making the 2016 Bimota DB10 Bimotard a considered purchase rather than an impulse buy.
