The second product from BMW Motorrad’s ‘High Performance line has hit the showrooms this month in the UK – the BMW HP2 Megamoto. It is designed a street-legal twin-cylinder Supermoto, powered by a tuned version of BMWs iconic Boxer-twin engine, pumping out an impressive 113hp with 115Nm of torque.
The use of lightweight materials such as carbon fibre gives the BMW HP2 Megamoto a weight of just 179kg, giving the bike an impressive power to weight ratio. A fully adjustable, top of the range Öhlins shock absorber ensures consistently stable rear-end feedback, whilst accurate steering is achieved with sturdy, upside-down 45mm Marzocchi front forks, and what holds it all together is a hand-built trellis frame chassis.
Tony Jakeman, BMW Motorrads Marketing Manager said, “The Megamoto has been designed and built for those riders who strive to be different and want a top-end, high-quality motorcycle that has class leading performance, that is fast, fun and innovative. The bike typifies BMW Motorrads brand shift to producing an ever more diverse range of premium performance motorcycles that appeal to connoisseur riders.â€

It’s a boxer?! That explains the weird side protrusions, I was always wondering why they made it so wide. Reminds me of Kamen Rider Black RX’s Grasshopper machine :p
Evils looks…
still prefer Ninja's over these ultimate machines….
paul, it’s nice to see some superbikes here. more coming soon?
im sure HP2 doesn’t fit in the naked bike category, more of a enduro off-road genre likely to be used in the Dakar rally.
HP2 bears a very slight resemblance to the GS1200, esp. the conjoint twin oval headlight.
wow~ nice naked bike~~
nice…
i lkike the kawasaki supermoterd better..but eems this is quite good too..in terms of design….
