We already know that Bimota plans to go racing at the 2015 Isle of Man TT (and other road races) with Brit Ben Wylie and American Brandon Cretu — the duo riding on a pair of Bimota BB3 superbikes.
What we didn’t know is that Bimota will make 60 replicas of these race bikes available to consumers, calling the machines the Bimota BB3 TTrofeo.
The BB3 TTrofeo bikes will have the same race livery as the road racing superbikes, along with “select performance upgrades” which we take to mean bolt-on goodies, not engine work.
No word yet on pricing for these machines, nor availability. Though given that a stock Bimota BB3 will cost you $50,000 and change, we imagine the TTrofeo will be equally unaccessible to the 99% crowd.
You can however get a glimpse of their fire-breathing racing brethren at a TT starting line near you, for a fraction of the price.
We highly recommend this option if you are of limited means — actually, we recommend you seeing the Isle of Man TT regardless of your socio-economical status.
