Collection: Bimota by Kawasaki Racing Team

A true highlight of the WorldSBK grid, the Bimota by Kawasaki Racing Team marks the rebirth of a storied Italian marque with an exhilarating new partnership with Kawasaki. Bimota first made WorldSBK history in the inaugural 1988 season, scoring multiple victories and taking the very first race win at Donington Park — achievements that laid the foundation for its legendary reputation.

Now, the story continues, albeit in a very different and updated form. The Bimota by Kawasaki Racing Team is a mix of Italian and Japanese factory technological know-how, with full commitment by both factories in a single sportive project. A singular racing outfit that stands out in the WorldSBK grid. This is also reflected in the squad, previously know as the Kawasaki Racing Team and a key element in Jonathan Rea six titles with the green brand. Nowadays, converted to the new Bimota by KRT, the team faces a new challenge with excitement and extra motivation.

Bimota is represented by Alex Lowes and Axel Bassani, two dynamic riders ready to push the innovative Bimota KB998 Rimini machine to its limits. Powered by Kawasaki’s acclaimed engine and enhanced with Bimota’s precision chassis craftsmanship, this bike embodies the fusion of Italian artistry and Japanese performance engineering.

The team’s striking livery mixes Bimota’s signature design flair with Kawasaki-inspired accents, creating a look that stands out in the paddock and on the straights. Fans can now bring this unique style off the track with official Bimota by KRT merchandise — from bold team shirts to premium racing caps and collectable posters — available exclusively at the WorldSBK Store. Show your support for racing innovation with gear that reflects true motorcycle passion.
