It is the fastest, sportiest and lightest Boxer-engined sport bike yet, and BMW say it is ready for the road or track.The BMW HP2 Sport follows in the wake of the successful launch of the HP2 Enduro (2005) and HP2 Megamoto (2007).The BMW HP2 Sport is aimed at purist sports riders and is equipped with many racetrack derived features proven in endurance racing during 2007.Some parts, such as the race shift for the close ratio gearbox, forged alloy wheels and MotoGP inspired dashboard are making their first appearance in a BMW series production machine.The BMW HP2 Sport will deliver thoroughbred sports riding on winding country roads as much as on race tracks.The highly tuned Boxer engine now delivers in excess of 96 kW (130+hp) at 8,750 rpm, even more than the R 1200 S launched in 2006. Peak torque is 115 Nm at 6,000 rpm, while the power doesn't taper until it reaches the lofty red line at 9,500 rpm.Making the HP2 Sport the highest revving Boxer ever.
