So far it’s been a dream come true. Can’t believe that I have been in the fortunate, privileged position of being able to purchase a HP4 Race. Due to the poor weather in the UK won’t ride the bike until next year. Will then decide whether to ride regularly on track or whether to use occasionally and kept it pristine as a long term investment.
Bought the bike new from a BMW dealership so it was classed as a new 2019 bike however I believed that there bikes were built during the end of 2017 and into 2018, so no idea of the exact build date.
As the bike was the last new bike available in the UK the discount wasn’t as great as what I have seen advertised across the pond. In the UK the list price of these were £68,000. The available discount on these varies from £2,000 to around £6,000.
What deals have you seen advertised on these including taxes etc. Out the door cost?
Congratulations this is an incredible bike, don't be afraid to ride it, I've done 2 track days now on mine and words can't describe what it's like to ride.
Thanks, really looking forward to the first ride. Had a Ducati Desmosedici back in 2009 which was tracked regularly, that felt special, however the HP4 Race should be on another level. Really excited, roll on the spring ?
I think the last HP4 Races in the US went to a dealer who bought 12 of them; someone bought 10 of them in one batch. Rumor was about $55K USD but who knows what the 10 sold for.
I had the privilege of throwing my leg over one for a Barber Trackday Session last month. All I can say is WOW. Congrats on such a wonderful bike. Just for god's sakes don't crash it!
Andreas, it may be possible to obtain a "daytime" MOT in Great Britain, one thing I am not sure of is the emissions requirements. Depends who you know I guess.
Amazing Bike indeed. I believe I have the only legally registered for street use HP4R in the US. No emissions testing requirements in my State either. I am in the process of adding all the necessary lights , turn signals , horn etc. It’s not as easy as one might think . The 2D display doesn’t support any of that stuff and the HP battery is also not really sized to power headlight , tail etc. There is also no provisional wiring for street lights. Fortunately , MotoGadget makes a solid state controller called the M.Unit ( blue) that is capable of controlling all the necessary functions. . Sorry to hijack your post but I saw some talk about street use and wanted to add my 2 cents. Enjoy the ride!
you can buy it from Sutter for $12000 last I checked on the price.
