The
Bimota TESI 3D is available in two color versions, red and white
and a Carbon Black version. The Carbon Black Tesi 3D model features
a new all titanium exhaust system made by Motocorse.
The principal characteristics of the Bimota Tesi 3D 1100 are
the unique "omega" which also supports and utilizes
the engine as a stressed member of the chassis. Both front and
rear wheels are suspended with the unique Bimota trellis swingarms,
now a trademark of Bimota. Like the Tesi
1D and Tesi 2D which came
before it, the front wheel of the Tesi 3D features a distincive
hub
center steering system.
The TESI 3D is equipped with a braking system created by Bimota
and is characterized by the radial calipers put on the lowest
point of the hub.
The design of the TESI 3D project was created by Bimota’s Enrico
Borghesan, who has dressed it in carbon fiber to dramatically
reduce the weight of the bike. The distinctive rear section
is formed of structural carbon fiber.
The lightweight wheels are in forged aluminium alloy and are
produced by the MARVIC exclusively for the Tesi 3D.
The benefits of hub center steering include the absence of frontend
dive under braking. Front suspension remains fully functional
in these conditions and allows unparalleled corner entrance
stability and mid-turn control. An additional benefit is the
resulting ability to use softer front suspension settings, adding
an uncommon level of comfort and control in lower speeds too.
