    Once again we find ourselves in Ivan's secret lair. The battle to bring the battered BMW HP2 back to life has dragged on for more than a year. The machine is all back together. When Chris presses the start button will we hear the might roar of the 1200 cc boxer or the click of an under voltage solenoid?

    The HP2 is incredibly awesome.
    The closest thing you can get to a big enduro boxer bike like this is an r nine t and put a few thousand dollars modifying the suspension.

      Had the chance to buy one in 2009 when dealers couldn't get rid of them. Same price as my F800. Big mistake.

    Boxxer engines look cool but on an off-roader... needs crash bars... on a road bike... reduces lean angle. Think I'll go for S1000 instead.
