The 2022 Bimota KB4
2022 Bimota KB4 sits in the middle of Bimota's modern lineup, pairing a Kawasaki-sourced inline-four with the Italian firm's own chassis and bodywork philosophy. This is a bike built around the idea that Japanese engine reliability and Italian frame engineering make a better combination than either alone. The four-cylinder engine pulls hard through the midrange and rewards a rider who wants to carry corner speed rather than just point-and-shoot on straights, and the riding position keeps things purposeful rather than comfortable. Ownership means dealing with a low-volume manufacturer: parts and service take more planning than a mainstream sportbike, and that's part of the appeal for the right buyer. The 2022 model carried over without significant mechanical changes from the prior year — buyers comparing it to a 2021 example should focus on mileage, service history, and condition rather than spec differences. The typical buyer here is a experienced sportbike rider or collector who already owns something mainstream and wants a hand-assembled Italian alternative with a direct line back to the original KB1 and KB2. It appeals more to enthusiasts chasing something distinctive than to investors banking on scarcity, since current production keeps the 2022 Bimota KB4 available rather than rare.
