We already had a pretty good idea what to expect from BMW Motorrad at the 2016 EIMCA show, but it is good to see that the Germans can still surprise us - and what a surprise it was, indeed. Sort of a "one more thing" moment in Milan, the BMW HP4 Race was teased to the assembled EICMA press - giving us a look at their ultra-premium version of the BMW S1000RR Superbike, and it drips in carbon fiber. Of course what really sets the BMW HP4 Race apart is the fact that it uses a twin-spar carbon fiber frame, making it, and the recently debuted Ducati 1299 Superleggera, the only production motorcycles with such a feature. Details beyond what we can see are very scarce from BMW Motorrad, though we do know that we can expect the BMW HP4 Race to debut in the second-half of 2017.
