Click here for an VINData Motorcycle History Report on this 2008 BMW HP2 Megamoto. Additional photos are available here for your perusal.
In the late 2000s, BMW debuted three bikes under its HP2 line – the acronym stood for High Performance 2-Cylinder.
The triumvirate consisted of the Enduro, the Megamoto, and the Sport. While each bike is far from commonplace, the Megamoto (BMW’s take on a beefed-up supermoto) is quite a rare beast indeed. It was only sold in 2008, and the German brand brought just 107 examples stateside.
Like its siblings, the Megamoto featured a 1,170cc boxer twin. In this application, it produced a thumping 113 horsepower and 85 pound-feet of torque — plenty of grunt to tear up the road. Arguably more impressive, though, was the dry weight: just 393lbs. Of course, that’s quite a bit larger by typical supermoto standards, but it amounts to quite the diet when you consider BMW’s other big bikes of the time.
In order to accomplish such a feat, BMW stripped away all of the fat from its R1200. Moreover, the Megamoto came equipped with tons of top-shelf components like Brembo brakes, an Öhlins rear shock, a set of Marzocchi forks, and an Akrapovič exhaust.
