For Sale: 2009 BMW HP2 Sport
Pity the BMW clientele: Up until 2008 BMW boxers were merely seen as gentlemanly transport. Sure, the bikes made long-distance touring easy, but performance was never on par with other Japanese or Italian hardware.
Enter the DOHC, carbon fiber clad, no excuses, 130 horses, image-changing HP2 Sport:
The HP2 Sport model, made in limited numbers and offered for sale at over $25k MSRP, is the holy grail of the boxer world. Which brings us to our seller’s bike:
This example is a 2009 BMW HP2 Sport with low miles on the odometer.
Note the digital dash, providing MotoGP-like functionality and style.
BMW really went all out in an attempt to make this boxer current and competitive against both the Japanese and the Italians. Check out this great single-sided swingarm:

There is no indication if this particular bike is optioned with the desirable ABS system, and scouring the pictures did not result in anything obvious. This model does come standard with a factory quick shifter, forged aluminum wheels, carbon fiber bodywork and Brembo radial-mount brakes. In all, it is a BMW tour-de-force

This one doesn’t have ABS. You can (just) see that it doesn’t have the sensor ring on the left front brake rotor. Super sweet bike. The R12S was a great update over the R11S and the HP2 Sport is even better.
Good eye, Evan! Thanks for the feedback. This is definitely one of those “someday…” bikes for me, with or without ABS.
Cool bike! I like this selection and would’ve never caught it. Nice one Mike!

I like the R11S Boxer Cup Editions too!
I certainly wouldn’t complain to find one of those in my garage! It doesn’t have the DOHC head, but it is still one tasty ride…
Hi,
What price would you sell it for?
