2008 BMW HP2 Megamoto NO RESERVE Great Condition ride anywhere bike with ABS

For auction is this 2008 BMW HP2 Megamoto with 11700 miles. It is as shown in the first pictures on the OEM megamoto wheels and Michelin Pilot tires. All of the pictures are of the same bike. I just had the knobby tires on it for an trip and took most of the pictures with the knobby tires on it. The bike is shown with GS wheels and knobby tires that Do Not Come With The Bike. I like the knobby tires and it rides well with them but they don't come with the bike in this auction. The bike comes with the blue megamoto OEM wheels and almost new Michelin Pilot tires. Very nice condition with a few character marks earned in the woods. This bike has the following options:ABS braking systemSlipper clutch 1100. 00Handlebar risers 120. 00Hand guards 63. 00Carbon fiber valve covers protectors 214. 00Side stand pad 12. 00Adjustable levers 93. 00Scott Steering damper 499. 00Windshield 110. 00License plate / tail light / turn signal mounting assy 68. 00Renazco Seat 400. 00Aux fuel tank w/electric fuel pump 740. 00Carbon fiber skid plate 80. 00Very nice tiresThere are some pics with the GS wheels and knobbies as I used this for a week around Taos. New Mexico riding around the mountains. The bike works great on smooth forestry roads. The aux fuel tank gives it good range and is an expensive option. I actually liked it better than my HP2 Enduro as it sits a lot lower. There are some dings on the bike and can been seen in the pics. The exhaust pipes are dented and the muffler has some scrapes on it. The right side gas tank cover has a ding at the front bottom. These are pointed out in the pictures. It is a very nice riding bike. The windshield does a good job of blocking the air. The hand guards protect your hands from the wind. The steering damper is nice for the fire roads. The slipper clutch rattles until the clutch lever is pulled in which is normal for a slipper of this style and is another expensive option. I rode the bike for 1400 miles in NM and it runs great. The following is from an article on the Megamotor:At first. it seemed like a bit of silliness. this whole giant motard thing. What did a BMW flat-Twin have to do with a converted dirtbike running on 17-inch wheels?Well. it was surprising to find the upsizing recipe worked so well for this class of streetbike. In the case of the BMW. the HP2 Mega is based on the HP2 enduro launched in 2006. the world’s wackiest and most expensive dual-sport bike. And its conversion to pure street duty and Megamotoness takes the predictable course with the switch to 17-inch cast wheels with griptastic 120/70 and 180/55 sport rubber. a spiffy Akrapovic exhaust and a mini-fairing with the Cyclops-and-a-half headlight. Cooler features include the exposed steel-tube frame. inverted telescopic fork and ?hlins shock. The triple-disc brakes are superb and use braided lines at the front. ABS is a $1000 option on top of a $20. 20 price tag. The bars are quite wide. too. and even when you’ve got your feet up on the dirtbike-like clawed footpegs. you’re never cramped for space. Power from the 1170cc engine is snappy and fun. The claimed 113 horsepower is delivered. however. with predictable strength and vigor. while being accompanied by excellent torque. This 11. 0:1-compression. high-lift-cam. air/oil-cooled special is not at all like your average Boxer fare. The latter engines are satisfying if somewhat stoic; this one runs as though a mad German scientist was in charge of tuning. Same goes for the chassis. Okay. it’s a big. tall bike. and that wheelbase stretches out to 63. 4 inches. But the front-end geometry is intended to keep things reasonably lively (28. 4 degrees rake/3. 7 inches trail). so as the road gets tighter. things get better and better. It is stable in high-speed sweepers. yes. but wide bars and the in-command riding position favor quick flicks and rapid directional changes. The perch-like highness of this type of bike always feels a bit strange as you take the first few corners. but soon you realize that the extra suspension travel and altitude make deep lean on bumpy roads your path of choice. and it all feels quite natural. So. like the other bikes in this class. the BMW Megamoto is just a tall version of a standard with vaguely dirtbike-like styling and a bitchin’ motor. Superb fun. in other words.
