Back in 2022, Bimota revealed the Tera concept, a sign that it had plans of moving beyond the sportbike segment and more into the world of touring and adventure. Now, at EICMA 2023, the bike has become a reality, and has been uncovered in all its glory. Interestingly, Bimota has managed to take its sleek and outlandish styling from its sportbikes like the Tesi, and reimagine it into an adventure-touring model.
Just like the Bimota Tesi H2, the new Tera also makes use of technology from Japanese manufacturer Kawasaki. At its heart lies the 999cc, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, inline-four cylinder engine complete with a supercharger. The result here is a tourer that pumps out an outlandish 197 horsepower and 101 pound-feet of torque. Of course, with this much power on tap, Bimota has made sure that the Tera is equipped to handle this performance. Suspension consists of a unique front end borrowed from the Tesi complete with an Ohlins TTX 36 gas-charged shock with external reservoir. A similar setup handles suspension duties at the rear, too.
