Built around Bimota's sport motorcycle platform, the 2013 Bimota DB7 Oronero relies on a 1098 cc (67 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 160 HP (116.8 kW) at 9,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 118 Nm (87 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 145.7 HP per liter and a 1,750 rpm working window between peak torque (8,000 rpm) and peak power (9,750 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the DB7 Oronero measures 172 kg (379 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.93 HP/kg (1.08 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,430 mm (56.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 275 km/h (171 mph).
