2010 BMW HP2 Megamoto Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by BMW for the super motard motorcycle segment, the 2010 BMW HP2 Megamoto utilizes a 1170 cc (71.4 cu in) oil & air-cooled two cylinder boxer, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 140 Nm (103.3 lb-ft) at 8,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 101.0 x 73.0 mm (4.0 x 2.9 inches) with a 12.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the HP2 Megamoto measures 198 kg (437 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 890 mm (35 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,616 mm (63.6 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
