2006 BMW HP2

pin_dropGislaved
Basic information and background
One of BMW's most legendary and rare bikes and a real "unicorn" for those in the know. Power in abundance and a completely pared-down philosophy compared to the brand's more comfort-focused Adventure models.
This is a Swedish-sold HP2 in very good original condition and one of only 30 registered in Sweden today. A total of 5 owners including dealers.
BMW only produced 2900 HP2s during 2005-2008 as a bet to target the slightly more "hardcore" offroad enthusiasts who found their proven GS too big and bulky. At the same time, being able to give the arch-rival KTM a match on the dirt road was clearly an appealing thought. There are even records of factory-sponsored riders fielding relatively standard HP2s in then-editions of the ultra-tough Enduro races Red Bull Romaniacs and Ertzberg Enduro, with good results.
Equipment and Options
Manual gearbox with 6 gears
2-cylinder boxer engine with a total of 105 hp drives the rear wheel via a direct drive shaft, ensuring minimal maintenance.
Two keys, BMW original Motard wheels, Touratech panniers.
Original Motard wheels are included which is rare.
Service book.
Condition
Very good original condition. Serviced and runs well, starts easily, and got a new battery in 2022.
The rear shock is a brand-new Wilbers, the original is also available.
The bike is equipped with aluminum bags from Touratech, the GPS holder is not included.
New Continental TKC 80 tires.
The protective plastic on the frame has worn in a few places on the frame.
Generally in very good condition. We refer to the pictures for more details.
Service History

The meter reading is correct according to the seller
Last MOT carried out 210421
Summary
This is something as rare as a Swedish-sold HP2. This was an exclusive model when it was launched and is today a rare sight on the market. In collector circles, even well-used examples of these motorcycles command great value. This particular example is in very good condition and has a fully documented history. It can be used both for what it is intended to do, clipping along special stages on gravel at high speed, or taking its place in a collection with the understanding that it is one of the very few examples left.
