At the heart of the 2024 Bimota Tera sport motorcycle, Bimota relies on a 998 cc (60.9 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 228 HP (166.4 kW) at 11,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 127 Nm (93.7 lb-ft) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 228.5 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (8,500 rpm) and peak power (11,000 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Tera measures 207 kg (456 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 1.1 HP/kg (0.91 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,445 mm (56.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 22-liter (5.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
