Remember when the most track worthy BMW was an opposed twin? You 'member. Remember when Pariot was developing this bike? Definitely a cool piece of history.

You got that insane top of the hill wheelie before T9 on vid? Still laughing about that. Dan comes by me there vertical.

Sorry Ernie, I don't think so. Here's another angle on the cool Beemer:



Notice the crazy front suspension. Telelever?

I did find some video of us going over the wheelie hump, but the wheelie was tiny. Nothing to write home about. It was just after this pic.:



Now if you want to see some video of a good one, this one by Blu was really impressive. Lasted pretty much until the braking zone.

Thanks, man, go figure. I thought you were sky high. Nice quality snaps from a vid. What are you using?

Thats Mojo on the left on the R6 in the last pic. I wish I could have made that one. Blu can rip some wheelies.

Is there any more history on that bike or pictures? Loving that bit of racing history there.

Just pausing the video while in full screen mode, and then taking a screen capture by holding down the windows button and pressing the PrntScr button on my Dell running windows 8.

Do a search for 2007 BMW HP2 Sport and you'll see the bike it's based off of. I think. Pretty sure.
