Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Rare Italian Collector Piece
The Bimota V-Due (V2R) was produced in extremely limited numbers in the late 1990s, making it a rare collector's item. Its scarcity means finding replacement parts can be very challenging and expensive.
Notorious 2-Stroke Issues
The V-Due famously suffered from a problematic direct fuel injection system that caused poor running and reliability nightmares, leading to a costly factory recall. Buyers should verify the injection system has been properly addressed or converted.
Strong Resale Appreciation
Despite its troubled history, the V-Due commands strong resale prices among serious collectors due to its exotic status and extremely low production numbers. Well-maintained examples in running condition can fetch significant premiums.
Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"A breathtaking, demanding machine that rewards only the truly committed."
$28,000-$45,000 usedThe Tesi 3D's spiritual successor deserves respect, but buying one used demands homework. Bimota's hub-centre steering geometry genuinely transforms corner stability — that planted, undramatic front end through fast sweepers is unlike anything else on two wheels. You'll understand immediately why enthusiasts obsess over these. But this is Rimini craftsmanship meeting Ducati mechanicals, which means parts sourcing becomes your new hobby. The V-twin donor motor is reliable enough, but Bimota-specific steering components and bodywork panels can take months to source and cost serious money. Mileage matters less than ownership history here. Find one with a fastidious dealer-serviced record or walk away. Previous owners either treated these as precious museum pieces or thrashed them at trackdays — there's rarely a middle ground. Check steering bearings obsessively, inspect every carbon panel for stress cracks, and budget at least 15% of purchase price annually for upkeep. This isn't a practical motorcycle. It's a statement, an experience, and occasionally a headache wrapped in gorgeous Italian bodywork.
