The 2021 Bimota Tesi H2
2021 Bimota Tesi H2 represents the Rimini firm's return to relevance, pairing its signature front hub-center steering chassis with a supercharged Kawasaki powerplant instead of a homegrown engine. This is the moment Bimota stopped being a nostalgia act and started building something a modern rider could actually take seriously as a daily proposition, albeit an expensive and mechanically unusual one. The hub-center front end changes how the bike behaves under braking and through corners compared to a conventional telescopic fork, isolating suspension movement from steering forces in a way that rewards a rider willing to relearn some habits. It's not a bike you jump on and immediately feel at home with, but that learning curve is part of the appeal for the right owner. The 2021 model carried over without significant mechanical changes from the prior year, since this was effectively the launch year for the Kawasaki-engined Tesi platform. Buyers tend to be experienced collectors or enthusiasts already owning several bikes, drawn less by practicality and more by engineering curiosity and Bimota's small-batch scarcity. Given limited production numbers, collector interest in the 2021 Bimota Tesi H2 remains strong and is likely to stay that way.
