I'd love to hear that with an after market exhaust! fuck that thing is sweet!



and what fucking track is that... looks bad ass!

One of the finest stock exhaust notes I've heard. Not sure I'd change it. The track is Ascari, in Spain. Believe the Ducati 848 was introduced there as well. It is a private track owned by the small car company of the same name (I believe).

Normally I do swap the exhaust out, but after doing so on several BMW flat twins before, the opened blatty note, while not bad, isn't great either, and rarely is there much of the performance bump... BMW stock exhaust is highly efficient and well tuned. This HP2 Sport has a special gas flap in the can, not only delivering extra torque, but it helps deliver this delicious exhaust note. When it arrives in May I'll confirm from the saddle.

Correction... the 848 was introduced at Almeria in Spain, not the Ascari circuit for this HP2 Sport.

so are you just test riding one or buying one? if your buying I'll need your street address and hours you'll be away or asleep... also where the keys are kept would be much preferred.

I haven't seen the HP Sport yet but the MegaMoto comes with the Akrapovic exhaust that has removable baffles.

Boxer twins are not known for sweet sounds, so if that's what you're after then you need to get a V-twin and not a flat twin.
