Dyno
The HP2's 118 horsepower make it the second-strongest bike here, but you'd never guess that riding it. Most of that power is focused near the top end and it takes a lot of buzzy revs to access it. Excessive driveshaft jacking and the inertial force of the longitudinal crankshaft are distracting.

Ergos
As usual, BMW hits a home run in terms of ergonomics. Everything is adjustable, but there was no need to fiddle; the HP2 felt plenty comfortable as delivered. The only drawback is the rearview. Those mirrors shake and wiggle so badly that looking over your shoulder is the only viable option.
