2015 BMW HP4 Review

2015 BMW HP4 on www.Totalmotorcycle.com

Pure Performance…

When light weight, massive power and razor-sharp handling are combined, the result is known as HP – High Performance. The new HP4 is BMW Motorrad’s first 4-cylinder model to wear the HP badge. Based on the S 1000 RR, a purebred factory motorcycle has been developed – made from the very best materials and molded into unparalleled design.

 

2015 BMW HP4 Competition

THE BEST OF THE BEST.

For riders looking for an extra level of refinement, this is the HP4 with Competition Package. It’s loaded with additional HP components: HP brake lever, HP clutch lever and the HP rider footrest system. The HP belly pan and the HP fuel tank trim are made of carbon fiber. It also features Racing Blue aluminum forged wheels and a sponsor sticker kit.

The HP4 Competition also has the consecutively numbered fork bridge engraving with HP logo. This makes each and every machine unique. The Competition Package will be highly exclusive with very limited numbers available.

 

2015 BMW HP4 Carbon

THE BEST OF THE BEST.

For riders not content with race track performance alone, we proudly present the HP4 Carbon Edition. With its additional HP components it makes a striking impression: HP brake lever, HP clutch lever and HP rider footrest system. The long, closed HP engine spoiler, the HP plate holder and the HP fuel tank trim are made entirely of carbon. Its most conspicuous hallmarks are the aluminium forged wheels in Racing blue and the sponsor sticker kit – so its unique quality lies not just in its performance but in its design, too, making it a perfect synthesis of quality that is impossible to miss.

The HP4 Carbon also has the consecutively numbered fork bridge engraving with HP logo. This makes each and every machine a unique specimen. Due to the involved manufacturing process and the limited availability of the high-quality carbon components, only a few models can be made during the manufacturing phase up to 2014. The new HP4 Carbon: uniquely exclusive.

2015 BMW HP4 www.Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits

Pure power:

The lightest 4-cylinder engine in the segment provides uncompromising power with an output of 193 bhp and a maximum torque of 83 lb/ft. The new exhaust silencer provides a higher level of torque in the mid-range, so there is power available where it’s needed most to deliver stunning lap times.

Pure intelligence:

With the world’s first ever dynamic suspension system DDC (Dynamic Damping Control), the HP4 is the most advanced production sporting motorcycle ever built. DDC automatically adapts the suspension damping to the situation at hand. Various modes are available to choose from: Rain and Sport for public roads, Race and Slick for the race track. The further enhanced Dynamic Traction Control on the HP4 supplements this perfectly. It can be finely adjusted in Slick mode to dial in the perfect balance between system support and rider control. The result is transparent feedback, maximum traction and optimum acceleration.

Pure exclusivity:

The new HP4 comes into its own with its refined paint finish in white and Racing blue. The HP4 will only be available in limited numbers through 2014.
