Rather than just building bikes with broad appeal, BMW has come up with HP-series motorcycles: High Performance, or HP in shorthand, with 2 designating both this particular motorcycle and BMW's evergreen boxer-twin engine. All HP bikes will be boxers; they'll be limited-production, carefully escorted through the design process by a small cadre of like-minded enthusiasts, and they'll be tightly focused on a specific segment of motorcycling.
