Engineered by Bimota for the sport motorcycle segment, the 2021 Bimota Tesi H2 features a 998 cc (60.9 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line four, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 228 HP (166.4 kW) at 11,500 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, the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Tesi H2 measures 238.1 kg (525 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.96 HP/kg (1.04 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 840 mm (33.1 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
Within MotoLibrary's Bimota archive, this model family spans 6 indexed model years from 2020 to 2026, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
