BMW HP4 Crash Bargain and Barcelona TrackDay

Its here, Happy Bloody New Year!

Baron Von Bargainhunter. You should repaint it Orange and Blue/Purple, and have it in the double bloody decker colour scheme.

When you consider the HP4 is around 24k brand new I'd say the 18k discount sure makes that the bargain of the year!

"use the bike for what it was intended for, smashing it around" Green laning Take 2? haha

[nhilal]

Seems like nobody else noticed the "boobs" search page in the background!!! LMAO nice easter egg Baron.

I just love project bikes like this, so much more down to earth cant wait to see it on the road when its repaired.

[AdjrianNickelodeon]

Ooooft!! Sexy bargain! I'm currently bidding on an insurance S1K for the track. Wanna Race?! lol

[Redline]

Do it dude. My brother did the same for his HP4 Comp. Bought it for 11k US. Blue book is well over 20k. Damage was similar. Cracked front fairing, light rash on bellypan and light rash on rear tail section. All in all thats a steal for a bike you rarely see. -RL87

[DrivingForcePower]

[SINISRSA]

There's no better way to start 2016 than watching BvG's new video.

[Redsmeg]

The track bike on the left is my old TT600, which I originally bought new as a Sunday scratching tool & spare bike 15 years ago. Eventually it was relegated to track bike, it has been thrown up a track at high speed and repaired cheaply, and it owes me nothing. I've had shiny new litre sports bikes but I never took one on track because while I could afford to buy and run and comprehensively insure the bike for the road, I definitely couldn't afford to write it off on track. On my big track crash I was very lucky, the bike didn't tumble after I lowsided, it just slid from 100mph to a halt so it was repairable. It could easily have been three seperate unrecognisable chunks of scorched metal fit only for the skip. I suspect that ragging £15K worth of shiny new super fast super hi tech HP4 round the track is more fun than thrashing a tatty old CBR600 or Triumph TT600 or a pre-scuffed older Gixxer 1K around... but I doubt it's 10-15 times more fun! And if it does end up broken in half and on fire embedded in a pit wall, I can afford in the worst case to lose £1500... if I've borrowed twelve grand to buy an HP4 and then turned it into a heap of scrap on track, I'm going to be somewhat distressed... and still paying it off for a very long time...

[Zalonka]

Wow and that is great that it's already rashed. Zero worries and fun times ahead on that machine!

Hahahah what are you searching at 08:22

[ArkaosMotovlogs]

Went down to bahnstormer the other week, really great guys in there, don't think I've ever felt so welcomed in a dealer, especially considering my age and that it's a bmw dealer!

[jayjohnx]

I dont know why, even with all the damages you just showed, it looked badass, and that exhaust sound 😍

[VeeFour]

If I had bought it, I'd just replace the subframes and rear sets, and then put some cheap fibreglass track bodywork and have a kick ass track bike

[thyserephTV]

I think the scratches on the blue strips on the front farings by the head lights look cool in a unique way. plus the bike reminds me of R2D2 from star wars.

[scottlincoln]

Congratulations on your purchase, still a beautiful bike...
