Overview

Extreme manageability

Like its sister machine the DB5, modern chassis design brings perfect handling for all occasions.

It's a bike not only to look at, but to be at one with.

Perfect on the twisties and winding tracks where precision handling will allow any rider to reach the maximum level quickly.

Design

The DB6 DELIRIO plays the perfect example of naked style. Straight lines for the bodywork leave the chassis and engine on display. We are talking about a minimalist bike.

The compactness and the front light reminisces the style of a fighter aircraft in attack mode.

Its aggressive look is completed by under seat silencers.

The DB6 DELIRIO is also offered as a RE version, where its look is defined by the Italian flag layered along the bike and a host of tweaks increase the aggressiveness of the bike.

Technology

Equipped with a Ducati Desmo 90° twin cylinder engine, 1100 cc and max power 100hp/7500rpm.

The trellis frame and the structure made of chrome molybdenum steel are complemented by alloy plates machined from solid.

The 50mm fork gives great performance for holding a line and allowing a quick change of direction; same story for the swing arm and its fully-adjustable monoshock. Lastly, she stands on OZ aluminium forged wheels.

Bimota also presented the R version that differs from the DB6E (besides the look) with the use of 18mm radial calipers and a dry clutch, plus more use of carbon to create a lighter weight.
