2013 Bimota DB6 Delirio E

The 2013 Bimota DB6 Delirio E occupies a curious spot in Rimini's small-batch lineup, a naked bike built around a proven Ducati twin rather than one of Bimota's own engines. What you get is a hand-built chassis wrapped around a torquey, air-cooled L-twin that pulls hard from low revs and doesn't need to be wrung out to feel satisfying. It's a bike that rewards a rider who wants character over outright aggression, with steering that feels quicker and more immediate than the Ducati donor bike it borrows from. Fit and finish carry that small-workshop feel that separates Bimota from mass-produced nakeds, for better and occasionally worse depending on maintenance history.

The 2013 model carried over without significant mechanical changes from the prior year, so buyers comparing it to a 2012 example should focus on mileage, service history, and condition rather than spec differences.

This is a bike for someone who already owns or has owned a Ducati and wants something rarer, with the mechanical familiarity of Bologna parts support but the exclusivity of a low-production Italian frame builder. Collector interest sits at moderate, appealing more to enthusiasts than speculators.
