Hey, I know there are a few other bimota enthusiasts on the list...just 
heard about this from the bimota list:

"Bimota will present during the forthcoming milan fair the new db 7 
powered by a ducati 1098 engine. The plan is to participate the Italian 
Superbike Serie civ and - with some wildcards - the World SBK. 
Actually the factory is talking to some pilots and teams.
The future will bring a permanent participation at the World SBK.
The bike will show some bimota-typical detail solutions and a lot of 
high-tech parts. The weight should be 175 kg. The engine will be a soft 
modded 1098 with some additional power.
Bimota will offer the bike in two versions: a road-legal and a race 
type with full 1200ccm engine."

Here's a couple of photos:

Visually, I like where this is going ! And pretty exciting that bimota 
could be back in WSBK...on a Ducati powered bike!
