With the Bimota KB998 DRS, Druijff Racing unveils an exclusive superbike that blurs the line between work of art and track weapon. Based on the rare Bimota KB998 Rimini and built entirely by hand, this is a machine developed without compromise for one purpose: pure performance at the highest level.
Italian design, Japanese power, Dutch precision
The KB998 DRS is a unique trinity of Italian elegance, Japanese technology and Dutch craftsmanship. The refined Bimota frame forms the basis, but the heart beats Japanese: a Kawasaki ZX-10RR block, further developed by Druijff Racing itself to an insane 230 hp at the crankshaft.
That power is achieved thanks to a fully optimized intake and exhaust system, with a full titanium SBK exhaust system from Spark and a high-quality MWR SBK air filter and Motec SBK electronics.
Top components, zero compromise
As you would expect from Druijff Racing, the KB998 DRS is built with only the very best components, directly inspired by the WorldSBK paddock:
– Motec M130 ECU with WorldSBK software: fully programmable, including traction, slip, wheelie and launch control.
– Full data logging via CAN bus and an ADU dashboard, identical to what you find on a World Superbike Championship.
– K-Tech TRDS suspension with True Rod Damping System, fully adjustable for ultimate feedback and stability.
– Brembo GP4-MS brake calipers, HPK discs and an XR17 CNC master cylinder for razor-sharp stopping power.
– Bonamici racing components, GB Racing protection, carbon bodywork, enlarged radiator and oil cooler, plus an ultra-light lithium battery for maximum weight savings.
In short: everything about this bike breathes racing technology – no compromises, no concessions.
Customization down to the last detail
Each Bimota KB998 DRS is built entirely to order in the Druijff Racing workshop. Each copy receives a unique adjustment, carried out and tested by the team itself, with direct input from WorldSBK specialists.
Delivery also includes a personal track support day: on the track, the engine is adjusted to the driving style and preferences of the owner. This makes the KB998 DRS not just a superbike, but a tailor-made racing machine – an extension of its rider.
Price, exclusivity and philosophy
With a price tag of €62,000 excluding VAT (€75,020 incl. VAT), the Bimota KB998 DRS is not a motorcycle for everyone, but it is for those who have already seen it all and now want something really special. Only ten units are built to order.
Additional tuning, personal construction or specific racing configurations are possible in consultation – Druijff Racing builds the engine exactly as the customer wants.
Racing DNA down to the screw head
With decades of experience in national and international racing and collaborations with technical partners from WorldSBK, Druijff Racing is known as a specialist in race construction, performance tuning and track support. The KB998 DRS is the ultimate reflection of that philosophy: uncompromising quality, built with passion, precision and pure speed in the blood.
The Bimota KB998 DRS – where Italian design, Japanese power and Dutch perfection come together.
A superbike like only ten will ever exist.
