| Vehicle Overview |
BMW HP4 Race is a premium sportbike that carries loads of carbon fiber in its bodywork. This makes it good for just 171.4 kg of weight and that too with fuel and all fluids. The 998cc, four cylinder engine powering HP4 Race is good for 215 HP and 120 Nm of torque. High power and low weight combines to bring the best throttle response from a bike of its segment. BMW offers Ohlins fully adjustable suspension, Brembo brakes and Pirelli Diabolo Superbike Slick SC2 tyres with the motorcycle. Riders can opt for low or high seat option with BMW's in-house customization option. |
