More than any other motorcycle, the HP2 capitalises in full on rough terrain on the benefits of the Boxer con-¬cept with its low centre of gravity. But at the same time the HP2, with its almost playful handling, low weight, and high-performance power unit, offers supreme riding pleasure also on the road. So considering the many options it offers the rider, the HP2 is the most powerful and by far the best offroad Boxer of all times.This brand-new model from BMW Motorrad was developed by a small but highly dedicated team of specialists, engineers and mechanics fully committed to the Boxer and also dedicated in their private lives to offroad motorsport, working beyond the usual processes of series development under the simple and straightforward motto that “only an enthusiastic professional can offer another enthusiastic professional what he really wants”.In technical terms the BMW HP2 is based on the R 1200 GS. But tailored in every respect to the needs and preferences of the ambitious enduro rider, the HP2 is a completely independent, truly exceptional motorcycle.The all-new lightweight suspension is based on ample experience gained by BMW in marathon rallies, with an air/spring/damper system on the rear wheel proudly entering the world of motorcycling as a world-first achievement. The engine itself has been optimised for minimum weight and the entire drive¬train laid out specifically for offroad use.Consistent lightweight engineering was indeed the name of the game with all the components of the new HP2. As a result, overall weight of the motorcycle in road trim remains below the 200-kilo “sound barrier”, with kerb weight according to the DIN standard of 195 kg or 430 lb. Dry weight, in turn, is a mere 175 kilos or 386 lb.In conjunction with the new machine’s perfect ergonomics, this guarantees supreme agility and easy control even on the toughest terrain. And com¬bined with the low centre of gravity of the Boxer engine, unparalleled smoothness and powerful acceleration from the lowest engine speeds, as well as the motorcycle’s excellent balance, the HP2 is in many cases su-¬perior to even the toughest single-cylinder competitors on difficult, slow trial tracks. The superior performance and riding stability of an enduro Boxer on fast sections of offroad terrain, in turn, are obviously beyond the slightest doubt.

There's a few superficial scuffs and scratches. I'm into adventure touring and ride single/double track, this is inevitable from trees and branches. A few scrapes from tip overs in deep sand, a tough riding surface to master. This is an enduro bike and not a street machine, the cosmetic stuff comes with the turf.I'm 60 years old and prefer to stay off the street and ride off road.This bike has not been abused. Any other questions, send an e-mail and I'll reply ASAP. On Apr-29-13 at 16:20:10 PDT, seller added the following information: I had a set of Touratech cylinder guards thatI've been meaning to put on for a while. I also took a picture with the the mirrors on.The bike does not have a set of extra wheels, there is nocheap tool kit included. The rear stand seen in some picturesis not included with the sale.
