for the WCSBK season 2025
During the last SBK event in Jerez, the new Bimota by Kawasaki Racing Team (BBKRT), has showed in a world wide preview, the new KB 998.
The bike's name doesn't respect the original rules of Bimota's bike, the number reflects the Kawasaki engine's displacement.
The bike built has as core the engine of the ZX10R with a 205CV at 14.000 round/min. for the 998cc engine.
The bike's specifies hadn't released, but it is clear how the frame has been manufactured in Bimota, it reflects the concept showed on KB4.
During next EICMA will be release the road legal version.

Axel Bassani and Sam Lowes sign up with new Bimota Racing Kawasaki Team (BRK) for the 2025. So another team has appointed their driver for the next season.
This is a great news for all the fans of the WCSBK and Bimota lovers. But the enter of Bimota as new manufacturer has a cost, the exit, my personal opinion in a couple of years of Kawasaki. The Kawasaki official team we had known in these years will expire as Kawasaki, it will rebrand as Bimota BRK.
