Bimota Dilirio

Post by winger »

Was at Donington yesterday working e'r well sort of!!,saw a Bimota Diliro i think it's called,could hardly read the sticker on it,about as practical as a hole in the head,but what a work of art,and even a great rideing position,probably have gone bust again before they ever make any but great to look at!!!.

I personally think it looks horrible. There doesn't seem to be any flow in the lines, too many angles and sharp edges, but beauty is in the eye as they say.

I think it's a fantastic-looking bike taken as a whole but if you look close up there are too many little bits of plastic hiding stuff - around the headlight, oil cooler, belly pan etc. Probably look better if they were bare carbon....... still a bit fussy, though.

Looks like the b*stard love child of a washing machine and hoover to me... Still, each to his own.

You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

But still, it's not my cup of tea. It looks like the design was taken from a low resolution computer game :?
