PerformanceWhen 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. 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. Specifications
QuotesMotorcycle-usa ---- "Indeed the HP4 formula improves function around the racetrack. But the aspect we’re most captivated by is how much more refined of a motorcycle it is as a package. The synergy of the powertrain, chassis, and electronics allow the rider to lap at a pace they might not be as comfortable on another brand. And that’s what sets the HP4 apart from anything else on the market. Considering the technology and astronomically high-level of performance this machine is capable of, its going to be an absolute steal if BMW is able to sell it for anywhere close to its $25,000 estimate in the U.S" asphaltandrubber ---- "Our conclusion, whoever took this photo had access to the same garage as the original 2012 BMW S1000RR shoot, which only lends more credence to its authenticity. It would be great to see the DDC system come to the BMW S1000RR, but it looks like we’ll have to wait until October/November to be sure." Cycleworld ---- "I flew to Spain to ride the new limited-edition HP4, the latest incarnation of BMW’s already-impressive, World-Superbike-contending S1000RR. After spending a day lapping the famous Circuit of Jerez on this monumental new motorcycle, I asked myself, “How might the upgrades that were outlined in the press kit and I experienced on the racetrack benefit buyers of this motorcycle?" motorcyclistonline ---- "It’s no secret we love the S1000RR, our 2012 Sportbike of the Year. The HP4, the fourth member of BMW’s exclusive High Performance family and the first four-cylinder offering (the K1300S HP was just an option package, not a true HP design, we’re told), is based on the award-winning S1000RR, but with many upgrades. Forged alloy wheels, an Akrapovic titanium exhaust, a lighter sprocket carrier and battery, and many carbon-fiber parts make the 439-pound HP4 15 lbs. lighter than the standard S1000RR, and the lightest production liter bike ever, BMW claims" |
