Yep, would love to own that, but the main reason I don't call that guy and make an offer (aside from money) is that riding it would almost be a shame since it's 12 yrs old and still brand new. Guess you'd need a collector to buy that.

For those whom are looking and understand what a Bimota db2 is truly about -- it really is a stunning motorcycle. 

I've known a few people in the Northwest who have tried to buy this particular bike the past few years when the economy was much better.  Price has dropped a bit since those offers were made.

The newer Bimotas are works of art with a price to match.
I can't get past the way the tail section sticks out way aft of the rear wheel on the older bikes... I just find it very un balanced looking and quite distracting.
I could never own one for that reason
