Italian boutique maker Bimota has returned to the US market after more than a decade away, launching through a new exclusive distributor, Bimota Spirit, based in North Carolina. Five models are on the roster: the KB998 Rimini, Tesi H2, Tesi H2 TERA, KB4 and KB4RC. The KB998 Rimini and Tesi H2 are available now, with the remaining three arriving by year-end.

Announcing five models at once tells you how serious this comeback is compared to the brand's quiet years. I really want to know how the Tesi H2's center-hub steering feels paired with a supercharged engine. This is the good part — my pulse is already up just imagining it.

Interesting that the KB4's 1043cc inline-four sits above the KB998's 998cc.

It's been over ten years since they last left — time flies.

Limited production usually means a brutal price tag, doesn't it.

A Ducati Panigale still has way better dealer support though.

Getting to see the Tesi H2's center-hub steering stateside is huge.

Only one distributor again — worried they'll pull out once more.
