Bimota KB998 WorldSBK 2025 Racer Revealed
The Bimota KB998 WorldSBK racer has finally been revealed.
Bimota had already voiced their interest in rejoining the superbike race series since Kawasaki took over the brand. Known as Bimota by Kawasaki Racing Team (BbKRT), Bimota will supply the chassis and Kawasaki provides the engine which is from the Ninja ZX-10RR.
Speaking about the new partnership, team manager Guim Roda said: “Of course, there has been much work to do behind the scenes to get us to the eve of unveiling the new bike and testing on track in public for the very first time.
“To have Alex Lowes and Axel Bassani onboard as riders – plus the associated pit crews and support staff – means we can concentrate on the core tasks at hand, testing our new KB998 racing machine and accumulating data across a testing schedule, inside the test limitation rules set by BWO and the FIM, reaching from tomorrow and across the Winter.
“This is a very new bike and will need our full commitment. We are very enthusiastic to be part of this fascinating project and honoured to take responsibility for making the new Bimota KB998 perform on top as soon as possible.
“We have updated all our social media accounts so we encourage fans to follow BbKRT and play their part in this exciting journey.”
One question remains, though: Will there be a Bimota KB998 homologation model for the public?
