Vyrus 986 M2 Strada: test by Alan Cathcart

Like a Bimota Tesi, only better. The Vyrus has come straight from the racetrack to give you the ultimate street riding experience.

Sticking the “racer with lights” label on a refugee from the racetrack isn’t always a passport to street-legal satisfaction. But when you’ve had six long years to figure out how to go about it, the chances are good that you might get it right.
That’s how long it’s taken Vyrus virtuoso Ascanio Rodorigo to do just that with the Moto2 racer he first unveiled in January 2011, with the promise that he’d produce a homologated street version in due course—and now at last he has.
Rodorigo is the proprietor of Italian boutique bike builder Vyrus Divisione Motori, the so-called Clinica Moto [aka bike clinic] located just a stone’s throw from the Bimota factory on the outskirts of Rimini.
There, for the past 14 years, he and his like-minded quartet of fellow craftsmen have patiently created a succession of two-wheeled works of art represented by the over 150 examples of the high-priced hub-center Vyrus sportbike they’ve constructed there during that period under the pura follia tecnologica banner—and it is indeed a fact that they represent two-wheeled technology truly gone mad!

Superstock race @ iomTT

Giornata nera per Ben Wylie, l'alfiere di Bimota che pensava in un riscatto con la gara della superstock è rimasto invece profondamente deluso dovendosi ritirare durante il secondo passaggio sul circuito del TT.

SBK Result @iomTT

Quest'anno purtroppo l'unica Bimota al via, quella del veterano Ben Wylie, non ha visto il traguardo della prova della superbike. Ben scattato discretamente al via, chiude il primo giro in 39° posizione, nel secondo passaggio migliora decisamente il passo guadagnando 4 posizioni. Durante il 3° passaggio, nonostante lo stop per il rifornimento e cambio gomme riesce a guadagnare altre due ulteriori posizioni, trovandosi al 33° posto. ma durante la fine del quarto giro iniziano i problemi, viene infatti ripreso da i due appena sorpassati retrocedendo in 35° posizione e chiudendo il giro circa 30" più lento degli immediati avversari. Problemi tecnici ne causano il ritiro durante il 5° giro.

destino...

Qualche giorno fa mi è capitato di leggere un articolo della rivista inglese MCN, nel quale viene spiegata la situazione attuale Bimota con l'ausilio di brevi interviste a persone che in Bimota hanno lavorato. In sintesi Pierluigi Marconi è uscito da Bimota dopo divergenze con l'attuale proprietà. Andrea Acquaviva è un altro pezzo importante della scacchiera Bimota che se ne è andato e la produzione risulta essere completamente ferma.

La dirigenza sembra voler vendere ma ci sono anche alcuni debiti da pagare tra cui gli affitti arretrati della fabbrica ancora di proprietà della vecchia dirigenza (Dr. Comini).

Insomma, fosche nubi gravano sul sentiero Bimota, nessuna luce in lontananza, solo una mera speranza in una nuova proprietà.

Vi invito a leggere l'articolo
