Brand New BIMOTA SB8K  SANTA MONICA model # 8    2006 model year made in Italy by the masters of the Italian exotic motorcycle  BIMOTA This is a brand new motorcycle .  Never registered. never titled. never ridden. nor plated.  The bike has always been kept in an environmentally controlled setting and has never been left. parked or stored otherwise. The bike is in brand new pristine condition. actually better than showroom new. because of the additional items noted throughout this listing.  If you have never seen a BIMOTA SB8K Santa Monica model . you cant do it justice with pictures.  BIMOTAs are always gems. but IMHO the Santa Monica is without a doubt the best built BIMOTA ever made.  The attention to detail and the fit and finish of the entire bike is superb.  If I had only one BIMOTA it would have to be either a Santa Monica or a Tesi 3D LE. or both :) :)The bike is totally street legal and ridable. But the bike has only been kept as a collectors piece and has not been ridden or used in any way. So the bike is as new as a new bike can possibly be. The bike has not been titled. nor registered. nor plated. The original MSO ( Manufacturers Statement of Origin )  and bill of sale will go with the bike upon purchase.  This is a USA legally imported bike. Bob Smith of Moto Point imported this bike into the USA for his own private collection ( Bob Smith / Moto Point was the USA BIMOTA Importer to the USA at that time ). The MSO is proof of the bike being legally imported into the USA. and of course the bike has the correct DOT approved VIN numbers.  Important note ;  BIMOTA has not had an official importer in the recent past. The DB7 was the last model imported into the USA.  There are a number of BIMOTAs that have been brought into the USA illegally or by sneaky methods . and these bikes can be extremely hard. if not impossible to get titled. registered or plated to make them street legal. It is a good idea as a potential buyer to always check the bikes importation records to be sure that you are not buying a bike that you cant ride on the streets legally .  All makes and models have to pass DOT regulations and emissions and noise standards.  FYI. I mention this because I have been asked this question and think that its important to bring this topic to the viewers attention . The bike originally was imported into the USA and was owned and in Bob Smiths personal collection. The bike was later sold to another dealer / collector and I purchased the bike from this individual in order to put this bike into my collection.  I was in the process of highly customizing and upgrading this bike with intension to keep it in my collection and to possibly start riding the bike in the mountain canyons in my "back yard " ( the Rocky Mountains are just outside my back door . true ).  Im now in my early 60s and due to health and medical problems. Im thinning out my collections and considering putting this rare gem up for sale.   This bike is still brand new as it has never been registered. nor plated. and has not been ridden. It has been serviced and set up with the latest fuel maps and is kept in a climate controlled setting. The bike is kept on wheel stands and is connected to a battery tender. The bike is occasionally started and warmed up and checked out . and then returned to the collection ( this is done to prevent problems that can happen if a motorcycle is left sitting to long without running the engine and neglecting its care / bikes in storage require regular care and regular checks and Im happy to discuss this topic to any one who has interest in this. or has questions about it ). Needless to say the bike is in pristine condition and has no known problems.
REGARDING CUSTOMIZATION AND OR UPGRADES AND EXTRAS;  please read this as it tells about all of the goodies that have gone into this machine . as well as additional upgrades and spares available . The bike originally was the highest spec BIMOTA ever built with a MSRP / Retail of $45900 USD    ( true in 2006 when it was made  ) The bike came with many many top of the line components and has an a hugh amount of carbon fiber throughout the bike. Ohlins suspension. Brembo brakes . and a superb Suzuki TLR 1000 Vee Twin engine. BIMOTA added its own special ignition and fueling systems and has the worlds only tilting injector system that is computer controlled to match the movements of the butterfly valves of the 2 massive 52mm throttle bodies. The bike came with a half aluminum half carbon fiber frame.  Racing forged CNC machined Gold anodized wheels. a one of a kind instrument cluster. a programable ECU with 2 maps that can be change in a minute at the instrument cluster / switch gear.  The attention to detail is state of the art.  In fact this BIMOTA has the best level of quality and fit and finish as well as the highest cost for BIMOTA to produce. There is a fair amount of information about this  bike available on the internet. The reviews and road tests of the bike had called the bike the Best Big Twin Super Bike as well as the Best BIMOTA ever built.  The handling . suspension. performance and ride ability all un surpassed .  Please note: the few glitches that the BIMOTA SB8R / SB8RS bikes had was completely re done and do not exist in this model ( I use to own 3 BIMOTA SB8RS bikes # 5. # 6. and # 10 of 150 . so I know ).   In fact I sold my SB8RS bikes and replaced them with this Santa Monica ( and I had my SB8RS bikes customized and upgraded to the max ). I very much like this bike / SB8K Santa Monica  over the SB8R/SB8RS models IMHO.
