Bimota Hb3
The Bimota Hb3 has a top speed of ~185 km/h (estimated), produces ~60 hp and weighs ~175 kg. Motoryk rates it 8.5/10.
Bimota HB3 została wprowadzona w 1983 roku we współpracy włoskiego specjalisty ds. ram Bimota i Hondy, wykorzystując czterocylindrowy silnik Hondy CBX550F umieszczony w lekkiej, wysokiej jakości stalowej obudowie rurowej Bimota. Reprezentował filozofię Bimoty polegającą na łączeniu doskonałej włoskiej inżynierii ram ze sprawdzonymi japońskimi silnikami, aby stworzyć bardziej skoncentrowany i wydajny rower sportowy niż maszyna dawcy. HB3 jest szczególnie rzadki, z ograniczoną liczbą wyprodukowanych, co czyni go cenionym przedmiotem kolekcjonerskim wśród entuzjastów Bimoty.

Co kupujący powinni wiedzieć
Honda Engine Reliability
The HB3 uses a Honda CB900F engine, meaning mechanical reliability is strong and parts are relatively easy to source compared to fully proprietary Bimota powerplants.
Strong Collector Value
As a rare 1980s Italian exotic with limited production numbers, the HB3 holds strong resale value among collectors — condition and originality are critical to commanding premium prices.
Aging Bodywork Fragility
Original fiberglass bodywork is extremely difficult and expensive to replace, so inspect carefully for cracks, repairs, or fading before purchasing, as damage significantly impacts value.

Oryginalny model produkcyjny z silnikiem Honda CB1100R w rurowej stalowej ramie Bimota z pełną owiewką.
"Włoska dusza owijana wokół niezawodności Hondy - prawie idealna."
HB3 dzieje się, gdy zespół Tamburiniego przestaje przepraszać za używanie japońskiego sprzętu i po prostu buduje najlepszy motocykl, jaki potrafią. Ten inline-four pochodzący z CB1100R ciągnie czysto z 4000 obr/min, a o 8500 jest naprawdę okrutny dla 1983 r. - 77 koni w pakiecie 198 kg było wówczas egzotycznym terytorium. Rurowe podwozie ze stali jest prawdziwym odkryciem: komunikuje wszystko przez pręty z bezpośredniwością, która wydaje się niemal konfrontacyjna w porównaniu z motocyklem donora Hondy. Tam, gdzie kłucie, to koszt posiadania - nadwozie i zapięcia na zamówienie Bimota upokorzą Twój portfel przy każdej usłudze, a znalezienie kogoś kompetentnego do pracy poza specjalistycznym sklepem to ćwiczenie w cichej desperacji.

Recenzja używanego kupującego
"An exotic masterpiece that rewards obsessive owners and punishes casual ones."
$12,000-$22,000 usedThe HB3 is one of those bikes that makes you feel like you've stolen something. Built around Honda's CBR900RR engine in a hand-laid carbon and kevlar Bimota chassis, it's genuinely special in ways modern bikes simply aren't. The steering is telepathic, the chassis communicates everything, and it sounds absolutely savage. Finding one in decent shape is the real challenge — these are rare, obsessively collected, and often poorly maintained by enthusiastic but under-resourced owners. Before buying, budget seriously for a full mechanical inspection. Electrics are the notorious weak point; Italian wiring from this era has a personality all its own. Parts availability is genuinely terrifying — Bimota support is minimal, and some components are unobtainium without specialist importers. The CBR donor engine is thankfully bulletproof and parts are plentiful, but anything Bimota-specific will cost you sleep. If you find a well-documented, professionally serviced example, buy it without hesitation. This is a museum piece that actually rides better than it looks, which is saying something extraordinary.
