BMW HP4 RACE REVIEW

[@BaronVonGrumble]

Jizz Machine of the finest calibre. There is no doubt.

[@Tom_Hadler]

BaronVonGrumble BvG you are a legend.

[@DouEditz]

The finest quality of jizzzzzzes. thanks

[@northernwig]

Dripping...

[@lukeyboy42069]

BaronVonGrumble now the sell off of your bike collection makes sense...

[@SquidWithGear]

Your green boots are ridiculous sir

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

So you liked it then?

[@Ben-rq5re]

Please buy one as a 44T track bike and tour British/Euro circuits on it to make a track review series.. Edit; I wrote this before you mentioned it in the video. I will definitely put in a tenner..

[@650ib]

I love that bike! You rode it like a savage BEAST!

[@MatteoCariotti]

650ib Too bad you cant do highway smackdowns on it lol

[@BEANPOLEBIKER]

Magaiver9000 lol

[@brodiehimself]

You can though, what's the police gonna do?

[@mustafajustin6684]

i dont mean to be so offtopic but does anybody know of a trick to log back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb forgot the password. I love any tips you can offer me.

@Mustafa Justin Instablaster ;)

[@WeNeedASaga]

My bumhole tightened a little when Chris overcooked turn 1! Awesome vid as always lads, what an absolute dream of a bike.

[@xLordSpicy]

WeNeedASaga my arsehole was like a rabbits nose!

[@davelassell]

You guys are pretty much the only review/ride/commentary vids I want to watch. I don't even bother clicking on others' reviews and things even if they come out days before yours.

[@Delboysparody]

10% off HP4 race with 44 rewards !!

[@Yama_Apri_521]

What an amazing bike. The warranty offered by BMW shows the faith they have in this engine and should provide some confidence to the prospective owner. Racing at this level will never be cheap, but that doesn’t mean people can’t aspire to it. Also, I’m glad you’ve reviewed this ‘out of most people’s reach’ bike as it’s only a matter of time until tech such as this filters down and it gives us an insight into the future. Thanks, as always, for your time and effort in making this video 👍

[@penitenttangent8016]

Man Al is a hell of rider ! Sue Perkins rules too, he got it so hard in the straightaway he ran off the track and it wasn't even sketch!! Great video guys

[@disekjoumoer]

You two lolligans were so gobsmacked your banter was even reduced by a factor of HP4.

[@AdamsLifeRiding]

We have got to buy one lets do it i will send £2 get one each it will make this the best motorcycle platform out there.. The uk is screaming out for a top motorcycle channel lets make 44 teeth that channel. Bike's Bant's and bollocks.....

[@cafe88racer53]

think hes gonna buy this over the v4 speciale lol

[@Eglehalo4]

Support from the u s of a ill send some grip aswell

[@iamtherealzombie]

They should legit start a gofundme or something, I bet they would raise the money

[@gnarshread]

I'm in! Let's do this S#@T!!!

[@UnknownShotsUK]

Id total do it

[@Gunnerbattalion]

This is quickly becoming the best and only KZbin channel for Bike-related high quality awsomeness.

[@ApexMoto]

Liked the video before I've even watched it. Well it is 44 Teeth.

[@captainmashedpotato2630]

So where do I need to send my £1 then?

[@ColdSoda1]

Another great video. Went ahead and bought myself a sticker to be shipped all the way to AZ, USA to support your new bike fund.... It is said every upload, but is worth repeating - you guys put out the best motorcycle-related content on KZbin!!!

[@abccba3903]

You should buy one. Base it on a special HP4/44 sticker sales campaign. For every sticker sold the buyer gets a ticket in the hat to join you two on a season of track days. Would also be a hell of a video series.

[@RyanChelberg]

[@htothejay]

148 kg!! 220 plus horsepower...drop dead Sexy looks, Jesus Christ...Gotta love german Engineering Sweet Lord its beautifull

[@chello885]

Love the way you tried to describe the feeling of riding the bike and the when you open the throttle “fucking hell” said it all.

[@dennism1919]

Well Well. Great video. Of all the killer bikes you men have had the honor of sampling, it appears that we have come face to face with Jizzimus Maximus! I can only imagine what a rush that machine was to ride. Given Al's resume I was a bit surprised to hear him go on like that. It still makes me wonder why BMW refuses to bring a factory effort back to the world stage. By this, of course I am referring to WSBK. They got spanked a bit there. We won't even mention MotoGP. However, the argument can be made that this bike more than holds its own when you look at the TT, Macau and other series. Seems to me like they would make things much more interesting today in WSBK with this monster. Thanks again, guys! This was a blast to watch.

[@CPUspeed]

Love turnkey race bikes from the factory. No fuss no muss. Ancient history but my team raced the first aprilia in AMA history. Instant race bike, just add fuel. We won the race too.

[@gregdussek1]

Great video guys, really been looking forward to it. Sad at the same time knowing I’ll never own one, although...maybe in 3-5 years this kind of spec will start to trickle down to their sensibly priced models! Until then I’ll be happy with my ‘17 R1.

[@discflight]

A true pinnacle of motorcycling hey... Fagan hits the straight, front wheel bouncing up and down through gear changes - “f*#kin ‘ell!!!!” 😆😁 - you can hear the sheer biking jizz joy... 👍😊

[@TheJmebe]

I saw one of these at Bahnstormer... dribble, dribble. Seeing you guys ride it is as close as I'm ever going to get, and I loved it..

[@masonchudzik7790]

I could die happy just seeing a comparison review of the HP4 Race, RC213V, and H2R.

[@Witness27]

Since you dont have Patreon, would sticker sales help? Another brilliant video lads, Best moto journalists around!

[@FortyFourTeeth]

We do have Patreon. Just don't shout about it too much!

[@Witness27]

Ooops! I'll sling a couple of quid in there!

[@zippycentral]

I reckon they should sell all their socks n undies (unwashed) from various tours and wanky tests. Doooooo iiiiiiiiit.

[@felixarbable]

44Teeth set it up so we can send money specifically for the bike and track the progress. We want this long termer

[@PetesGuitarUniverse]

one of the best vids you legends have made yet.

[@jaypum1]

you need to send Statham club racing on one....

[@benjy468]

Oh to see the vitriol when an ex pro shows up on a $80k bike a local club would be hilarious.

[@Ben-qz4gh]

set up a gofund me page sue, id love to see this :D

[@alexshorthouse]

Have you guys started a hp4 race fund yet I’m in for a tenner, would love to see a race series featuring you guys touring tracks on this monster!!!

[@tomasfruhauf9418]

"These brakes are phenomenal" Yeah, must be cool... [*cries on K1 GSX-R*]

[@michaelm.1576]

Awesome video my British friends. Us Yanks over here on the other side of the pond love your videos! Keep up the great work.

[@xjeffyb4656]

Extreme skill even when pitching a tent . Loved it.

[@GreggCesaroni]

I actually missed seeing Nate Kern’s bike at Jennings. A month before his got stolen in Amarillo Texas but he got it back with both of his Nine-T’s and most of his stuff.

[@andymoto8298]

I'm up for donating a quid if i get to see more onboards with that absolute Jizz monster, great video lads

[@paule5812]

Great video gentlemen as always, loved the reaction you guys both had while riding, you need to have a push for everyone to buy a sticker or shirt to help finance this bike for the 44 teeth corral.

[@Whos-That-Guy]

You guys only briefly mentioned the honda. There is a track only version of that bike, I wonder if you guys could get you hands on one and do the ultimate comparo of the best 2 bikes in the world. .

[@mattstewart2737]

It would be awesome if you guys could ride a mmx500

[@twowheelsquirrel]

I just did a couple weekends as a BMW lead guide for some road test days and one guy had 3.. I shit you not! He flew in in his chopper to the showroom at Reiten Motorad in Essex. It was brought over by, Focused Events. I fell in love without even hearing it start up 😂

[@lloydperry3154]

You shouldn't keep down playing your riding ability Chris. Your better than the majority of people in normal circles.

[@gweflj]

And he's well endowed.

[@sirlloyd6386]

The best video combining 44t and bvg thus far. Fantastic.

[@karlwalker1771]

Who would have thought a wardrobe on 4 wheels manufacturer would one day make a 2 wheeled scalpel? LOL head for the black stuff/track just like what I aimed for when landing my warplane on the long thin runway and believe it or not the runway felt like it had a bend at speed, lmao, love the buzz and videos lads.

[@Zanpaa]

What a bike! The traction control (cutting the spark I imagine) sounds awesome. And I have to say, even though we always see it in those videos, Fagan's helmet looks great. So, does the Ducati Superleggera even compare?

[@darlikchronicles]

Such a tense and entertaining video of you guys... Giggled couple of times and can't remove it from my face:)

[@blip98]

Alex Barros seemed well impress by your announcement of a pre ride poo!

[@aaronmachado13]

I've been waiting for this and I've fallen in love of that bike. I've seen this bike at the D.C. International motorcycle show and my God is it stupidly perfect

[@plainclotheshorse224]

Nice job again guys. Lucky fellas + amazing bike. Where do I send my quid to?

[@JaretCampisi]

I'd donate for you guys! Lovely video. But also, 2 seconds off for a Panigale V4 that you could ride on the street and costs 1/4 of the cost...

[@pistolpete5805]

Jaret Campisi 2 secs one lap , after 20? Goodnight Irene

[@JaretCampisi]

that is an excellent point however, none of these guys are racing professionally so its not like lap times really matter aside from personal accomplishment...

[@MrKWAMEFLIP]

Same argument can be used to refute your initial point

[@lokerosenkrantz7423]

Fagan did though.

[@Showmetheevidence-]

1/4 of a gazillion is still more than most can afford.

[@StatementPlus]

I'm most interested to hear how does the bike corner since this bike is without the adaptive trickery of the R1M and V4S. Does this bike prove that stuff is basically redundant on the track and it's mainly just for the road?

[@NELLYEMMS]

“I’m going for a poo” top lad. Entertaining but well informative. Best thing on KZbin. Baron.... you should do stand up 😂

[@MattJones675GR9]

I'm hoping Mike Dunlop rides one at the TT and not a parade lap either

[@princefancybum4605]

StreetTriple Mat would it be eligible? Defiantly not for the super stock but could it go in the suberbikes

[@MattJones675GR9]

Prince Fancybum Yes depending on the decision by the race organisers. The Honda RC213 was allowed and the Norton v4 is also allowed despite its 1200cc engine

[@BaronVonGrumble]

StreetTriple Mat its eligible... and the best thing they could do with it! 🤞

[@MattJones675GR9]

BaronVonGrumble I bet a 135 mph lap would be doable on one

[@TheInfantry98]

Watch the Isle of Man tt video by bmw with Peter Hickman

[@StatementPlus]

I'm glad you mentioned the RC213V, I'm really curious to know what you guys think comparing the two. Is the hp4 race even better than the track version 215hp RC213V? That's basically a gp machine. Please do video of the rc213v if you can. Regarding Valia's time, that was on a stock V4, not the S model and with stock exhaust? . I rode the v4 stock and a V4s with the factory akra 226hp on track and the difference is huge. 6kg less and 12hp makes a big difference. I wonder what Valia would have done on a V4S with akra. Given he basically developed that bike so it's like his child. If reitenberger just hopped on the hp4 and set that lap that's nutty. I guess the question is, is the Hp4 race better than a V4S with Akra, race body work, and say carbon wheels? I imagine that would lower the weight to 390lbs wet? What's the wet weight of the hp4?

[@geokar100]

Hey guys! Geoff here your No1 Aussie fan, Loved the review, so is it that much better than the Yamaha GYTR you reviewed recently ???

[@Humza1]

Could not stop smiling from ear to ear while watching the video LOL..just amazing guys!! Could feel the amazingness through the monitor LOL. Thank God wife can't see my face, would tell me I dont even smile that much for her lol.

[@Uwekerner04]

Maybe I missed it but was curious if you will ever do a video on the RC213V-S? Riding or not I'd love to hear you guys talking about it.

[@ridingwithsam]

Was nice to see Chris get on the track for a review, to see how 'normal' rider feels riding it!

[@Thedeathfrmabove]

Am I the only one who remembers the aprilia rsv4 r-fw misano, seeing as it is the true competition to this bike. Also those juicy pneumatic valves. If everyone sent £1 rather than buying one of these we could send Fagan to the Dakar!

[@TakeTurnsGaming]

why 44teeth? vs like 43 or 45? just wondering

[@curtiscurt]

sprockets, gear ratios and going faster. Something like that anyway.

[@jetjock767]

Standard sprocket fitted to most bikes

[@pistolpete5805]

Been waiting for this vid, and it’s hasn’t disappointed u guys never do... awesome

[@eusaphzai]

another amazing video.....keep up the excellent work guys.....love your videos

[@garrettricupero5738]

I love the bmw by far my favorite bike in the world but are you guys going to be able to get on a h2r anytime soon

[@knitware]

I wonder if this gives a small glimpse of the new RR, which I heard from a reliable source, will be ground up new and as ground breaking as the original RR...

[@PhilipWing]

Love how the guy at 1:42 looks at BVG like he's a celebrity. Laughed pretty hard there.

[@jimbryce502]

If you had that sort of cash would you buy this bike or fund statham for the Dakar ? Good to see you 's as excited as you were.

[@ClutchFirst]

Really nice comprehensive review as usual guys.

[@antique_ceremony]

Al is hella fast

[@perikocaton658]

count with my pound. Where is the donate button?

[@cutepysco5311]

Loved the budge bike battle it's nice to come off with a review good video lads 👍

[@sem2504]

When can I pay my quid to see more of this...........where do I sign.......? Great job again guys.

[@robertmulholland7319]

will the new 2019 s1000rr have some of the hp4 race bikes dna on it hopefully

[@c0c0asauce]

How much extra does it cost to have a BMW tech come to your track days to dial your bike in for you? Seems like that's an important part of the equation for a bike that has adjustable everything.

[@danielpork8416]

I love that BMW Motorrad set aside their pride as a company and stuck within their realm by developing the frame, engine, electronic aids, etc etc and sourced the very BEST of the BEST for Suspension, braking and exhaust systems. dual 4 piston brembo monoblock brakes up front, single 4 piston brembo caliper in the rear, full fledged brembo braking system no expense spared, surely they even worked with brembo to develop a bespoke braking system WITH brembo for this bike, same with the Akrapovic full titanium racing exhaust system and Ohlins suspension. I wonder if this bike can be upgraded in any way.. I think not. Save for maybe investing in CNC billet/aluminum or titanium bits to replace any lighter (yet fragile) components via a machine shop to make it so if the bike is crashed at low speed nothing breaks.

[@guillermohoffmann8417]

hey guys how those brembos stand against those which are on the Ducati Superleggera you also praised?.

[@Jack-cu7rl]

awesome video. brilliant cinematography

[@vishalprajapati8840]

You have my quid (or two), just buy it. I can't buy myself but will be happy to see you guys racing on it.

[@SAMFICOM]

How many seconds per lap on this one comparing to standard S1000RR you can win if they both on slicks with your skills?

[@Showmetheevidence-]

14:25. “Fuckin hell”. Best moment of the whole vid. Haha. Awesome.

[@leegrice1210]

Great video fella’s... what a truly incredible machine. Where do I send my money to contribute to you buying one??

[@auroraborealis8]

Big Boy's Toy! 😘 Which tires had been fitted?

[@johndoug4794]

A Panigale V4 and HP4 Race face-off would be interesting since their HP's and power-to-weight ratios are pretty much identical.

[@bokke77]

Holy shit balls, I’ve been waiting for this review for weeks!

[@DC61775]

Are you guys ever going to bring that color sweater back?

[@adriandaniel83]

Hey guys! Great video, as usual. Congrats! Q: What helmet camera do you use?

[@BorisOnBikes]

Great review! I absolutely love this machine, just wish I could afford something as awesome as this.

[@nipgeneral6420]

One of my favs ,cracking review and gonna watch it again and droooool !

[@homme_simon7214]

There is a bike with a similar spec sheet and price tag that no one really talks about; the Aprilia RSV4 FW GP. It surely looks amazing on paper but the lack of real info makes me wonder if they are worth Aprilia's asking price.

[@TriToGame]

1:39 Baron going full Thunderbirds strutting off there

[@r3d_ti3_guy]

I was completely spoiled on my ‘18 S1000RR for a first liter bike. I can’t imagine riding the HP4

[@stevejones7140]

HI Guys, how does it compare to the GYTR1... you rode at Portimao ...?

[@jamest5149]

Awesome video guys! Hope BMW bring out the road version of this and leave it as is... i.e DON'T turn it down from 11 to 5!!!

[@a1cdoddy]

I’ve bought 6 stickers so far so by that measure I’m owed at least a few track days when you guys buy one.

[@mathewbertenshaw6844]

I would love to know what time this bike would set on the Nurburgring

[@SMBBM92]

How would this compare to Aprilia's Factory Race bike RSV4 FW-GP?

[@AMPJ08]

This is what I wanted to hear. That this is the best way ahead the Superleggera! thanks for sharing your moment of joy kiddo's :)

[@oneonlyxram]

I know I'm late to this video, it's fantastic by the way, but I am in the US and you can insure this bike as an "off-road" only bike, full coverage. It is actually cheaper to insure than it is to insure my road going V4 Speciale.

[@chrisgibson4235]

Fantastic bike and review, not sure about the boots though Chris...🙈👍

[@danielteivelis]

Two things: 1) Ask for 2 pounds instead of 1, buy two of them and - raffle the other among the contributors. 2) Comment on how the special (carbon) wheels are related to the bike's manouverability.

[@08halit]

would love to try building a bike,,the project is the new ducati v4 in a 996 chassie..yummu 2nd is to put cbr1000rr engine in an 93 year 900rr fireblade chassie with single swing from the vfr800 and the rear from the 1000rr but the original 900 fireblade front... leave your comments for additional builds.

[@MrSimonfoz]

Good to see bikes like this being made, one day this tech will be on our bikes which is good for all of us!

[@cliffy4418]

What about the RSV4 rfw gp? Aprilia really need to improve their marketing.

[@tobyl0]

I am Cliffy I was thinking just the same.

[@Pillokun]

Sweet coverage of the HP4 Race, but as you mentioned in the video would it spank the Honda Rcv 213s with the 220hp race kit on? You should do a comparison :P

[@RIDERsxv]

Actually Aprilia will sell you a motogp bike almost, with pneumatic actuated valves etc. That's the fastest bike you can buy I think. I would take the RCV for fun.

[@Pillokun]

Mm, but it is still is a kind of street bike in its core design, the frame is at least. But the Honda is from what I can remember pretty much the same albeit even more basic machine(the customer hondas) with traditional valve system and no hocus pocus seamless gearbox. So I think the honda would be the best choice.
