Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine for experienced riders who are comfortable with a powerful, top-heavy supermoto that punishes hesitant inputs.
PurposeBuilt for aggressive backroad carving and supermoto-style thrills rather than long-distance travel or off-road exploration.
Rider FitThe tall 860mm seat height and wide bars demand a taller, physically confident rider who can muscle the bike through quick direction changes.
CharacterA raw, boxer-powered supermoto oddball that blends BMW touring-bike engineering with a stripped-down hooligan attitude.
Not Ideal ForThis is not the right bike for beginners, pillion-focused riders, or anyone seeking genuine off-road or long-haul touring capability.

2011 BMW HP2 Megamoto Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 860mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2011 BMW HP2 Megamoto, with a relaxed knee angle of around 135 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
