You clearly overestimate horsepower. The RC213 is 188kg fully fueled (and that's with headlights and other road-legal things) and makes the same power (215hp) as the HP4 Race. The chassis and handling of the RC213 will more than make up for the ~17kg weight deficit. But then again, it's also a lot more expensive.

BMW can mass produce these frames! this is amazing news for us normal people - it means that in the not too distant future carbon fibre frames won't just be confined to exotic, limited run bikes. We might one day see these on our run of the mill street bikes. damn I love technology.

An amazing bike, how they can mass produce that frame I do not know. It's kind of like a Britten V1000 but nearly 30 years later. The Britten was 138 kg wet and 166 Hp. The BMW is 33 kg heavier but has 49 Hp more. Amazing what was achieved in a shed in NZ so long ago. I guess the extra weight of the BMW would easily account for all the electronics it carries nowadays.

You can not find a better overall machine and production material eg build quality than BMW bikes! I owned a 2016 Kawasaki Er6N which when I bought had 2800km, when you looked underneath the bike on the frame etc you could find rust spots and weak leg pads, weak gas pedal etc... then I bought a 2005 BMW K1200R with 29.000km it was a beast with 3 year old spark plugs which ran flawlessly! A beast of a bike! The build quality was speachless!.
