Bmw Hp4

The Bmw Hp4 has a top speed of 290 km/h, produces 193 hp and weighs 199 kg. Motoryk rates it 9/10.

La BMW HP4 a été introduite en 2012 en tant que dérivé haute performance en édition limitée de la superbike S1000RR, dotée de la première suspension à commande électronique de production au monde avec contrôle d'amortissement dynamique (DDC). Elle a été produite de 2012 à 2014 et s'est distinguée pour être l'une des supermotos de production les plus légères et les plus avancées technologiquement de son époque. Le HP4 Race, une variante réservée aux circuits avec un cadre en fibre de carbone, a ensuite été dévoilée en 2017 en tant que modèle halo distinct.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir

🏆

World's First DDC Bike

The HP4 was the world's first production motorcycle with Dynamic Damping Control (DDC), automatically adjusting suspension in milliseconds. This cutting-edge feature significantly raises repair costs if electronic components fail.

💰

Strong Resale Value

Due to its limited production run and race-heritage status, the HP4 holds value exceptionally well compared to standard S1000RR models. Low-mileage examples in good condition routinely sell close to original MSRP.

⚠️

Watch the Electronics

Buyers should inspect the DDC suspension sensors and wiring harness carefully, as faults can trigger costly dealer-only diagnostics and repairs. Always verify service history includes proper software updates.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion

9.0/10
Idéal pour
Experienced track riders wanting ultimate BMW performance

"An uncompromising track weapon that rewards experienced, committed riders enormously."

$14,000-$19,000 used

The HP4 is essentially BMW's S1000RR stripped of excess weight and fitted with a semi-active DDC suspension system that genuinely changes how you ride. On the road, it feels telepathic — the suspension reads bumps before your brain does. Used examples typically have track miles, so demand full service history and check the frame sliders for evidence of drops. The carbon fiber bits are expensive to replace if damaged. Buying one used is genuinely smart money right now. You're getting a homologation special that originally pushed $20k new, available for considerably less. The 193bhp inline-four pulls hard everywhere but really comes alive above 8,000rpm. DDC modes make the difference between a good day and a brilliant one — verify all modes function before handing over cash. Realistically, this is a track-focused machine wearing road registration. Daily commuting will frustrate you — the ergonomics punish your wrists within 30 minutes of city traffic. Buy it knowing what it is: an uncompromising, thrilling machine that demands respect and rewarding riding.
