Overview
Bimota YB8 EVO
Bimota produced three variations on the YB8 between 1990
and 1994, using basically the same chassis as the previous YB6 range. The
first used a Yamaha FZR1000 EXUP engine in the traditional Bimota chassis,
with extremely high-quality suspension and braking components. This base
model was updated in 1993 as the YB8 E. But it was a special edition of the
YB8, the Furano, which most impressed. This was fitted with fuel-injection,
replacing the YB8's carbs. Complete with a lighter chassis and a power
increase to 123kW (165bhp), the Furano was the fastest sportsbike available
when it was launched. Luckily for the owners of the 152 bikes produced, the
stiff chassis provides sure handling at the huge speeds it can attain.
