1995 Bimota SB 6

1995 Bimota SB 6 sits near the top of the Rimini factory's mid-90s catalog, built around Suzuki's GSX-R 1100 engine but reworked into something the Japanese donor bike never was. This is a chassis-first motorcycle: a trellis frame and suspension package designed to sharpen a strong but relatively ordinary engine into a genuine canyon-carving instrument. Riding one means adapting to a narrow, aggressive riding position and a bike that rewards precision over brute throttle input, with power delivery that comes on hard as revs climb. It's not a bike that flatters a lazy rider, and it wasn't built to be. The 1995 model carried over without significant mechanical changes from the prior year — buyers comparing it to a 1994 example should focus on mileage, service history, and condition rather than spec differences. Owners tend to be experienced riders who already know their way around a Ducati 916 or similar Italian exotic and want something rarer, with fewer built and less brand recognition outside enthusiast circles. Given high collector interest, plenty of buyers today are as focused on provenance and originality as they are on riding the 1995 Bimota SB 6 hard.
