Looks like a badass bike, except for that color scheme.  Black, white, silver red, and gold?  C'mon, I can see two or maybe three colors, but five?

you're the only person i've ever seen count the bare-metal frame color... are you sure you don't want to include the green coolant in the overflow, too?  ;D

lol. It's just that with the red on the red on the trellis frame, and then that goofy looking reinforcement behind it really stands out and doesn't look right.

Put a 1098 in a Tesi and you've got my attention!

I don't see how you could dislike the 696 and like this bike.  IMO the frame in the Bimota is even uglier than the 696/1100.

What's the difference in the DB7 and the DB8? Any better than a 1198R?
You sure do get to ride some cool stuff Nutts. [moto]

I don't know. there is a LOT going on with this bike. If it's about 1098 power, I'd rather just take the 1098. I know it's a Bimota, but sometimes less is more.

Want want want want

It may be "avant garde" but the quality of the components really makes it a rolling piece of mechanical art.

Check out the angle of those triple clamps.  Neat.

IIRC, it's just a naked DB7.  which looks better, IMO.

the DB7, I mean.

the tesi is freakin' HAWT!!! even more stunning in person. I also like how they left the machine finish in the recess cuts on the billet section of the frame.

no lame-o casting, here!  ;D

I'd take a bimota over the 1098 8 days a week.
