The KB4’s chassis construction links the engine to the front and rear wheels over the shortest possible distance. At the front, the front trellis that supports the front fork is mounted directly to the engine. At the rear, a machined aluminium pivot plate is used to mount the swingarm.
With a short-wheelbase/long-swingarm arrangement to rival 600cc-class supersport models, the KB4 offers extremely nimble handling and superb traction performance.
The rear swingarm is a three-piece construction. All the pieces are machined from Anticorodal, an aluminium alloy, and welded together to form a swingarm unit with optimum torsional rigidity.
Italian artistic sense, blending old-world craftsmanship and ultra-modern materials, is what makes a bimota an icon of Italian motorcycle art. Take a ride and experience a sensation like no other for yourself.
Down to the smallest detail, the KB4 exudes high quality. From its hand-crafted paintwork, to its machined alloy parts and carbon-fibre pieces, OZ forged wheels and real leather seat. While the KB4 is splendid to look at, it is no exaggeration to call it rideable art.
The 1,043cm3 inline four-cylinder engine with its broad spread of torque. The brake system that offers superb stopping power and precise control. The alloy pivot plate that mounts the highly rigid, machined aluminium swingarm directly to the engine. The fully adjustable front fork, able to accommodate a wide range of riding styles. And a short wheelbase like that of a 600cc machine –the key to the KB4’s light manoeuvrability and nimble handling. All of these contribute to the KB4’s formidable package.
The rider can make numerous adjustments to personalise the KB4’s settings. Both the front (ÖhlinsFG R&T 43 NIX30) and rear suspension (ÖhlinsTTX 36) are fully adjustable. Eccentric adjusters on the rear suspension allow ride height to be easily adjusted. Similarly, eccentric adjusters also allow the footpeg position to be changed to suit rider preference.
