Summary
This rare 1988 Bimota YB5, one of 208 produced, features a Yamaha-sourced 1,188cc inline-four and a five-speed transmission. The bodywork has been refinished in white, red, and green over a red trellis frame, and the bike shows approximately 3,788 miles, with the seller noting the carburetors should be cleaned. It comes with a clean Indiana title, though it's listed as a 1989 model.
