HP Corse - 100 years of the Boxer
Italian exhaust specialist HP Corse is marking the 100th anniversary of the BMW Boxer engine with availability of its GP07 exhaust and a brand-new Hydroform RS for 2021 and up BMW R nineT models.
The Hydroform RS is a brand-new platform that leverages the brand's deep experience in using hydroforming technology to achieve smooth bore, weld-free bends and shapes for improved gas flow and reliability.

Hydroform RS black low 1-into-1 |
For this R nineT configuration, the main features of the Hydroform RS are a hydroformed conical jacket in low-thickness stainless steel with two side ribs - one external and one internal - on the wheel side.
The stainless steel pipe is circular and stamped, with the inlet having a smaller diameter than the outlet. An optically enhanced flange in anthracite anodised aluminium is CNC-machined from solid. The flange and the hydroformed jacket are satin finished by hand. The rivets guarantee maximum grip without aesthetically compromising or weighing down the exhaust. The logos are laser- engraved and it is homologated in all Euro 5 variants.

Those five variants are the 300 mm, manual TIG-welded single high fitting Hydroform RS 300 satin 1-into-2-into-1 and Hydroform RS 300 single high fitting exhaust in heat resistant black ceramic finish.
Then there is the Hydroform RS 300 1-into-1 single in satin or black ceramic finish; the Hydroform RS 300 low 1-into-1 in satin or black ceramic finish; the high RS 300 1-into-2 double exhaust in satin or black ceramic and, finally, the double low 1-into-2 in satin or black ceramic.

Also seen here, the HP Corse GP07 has long been one of its most popular exhausts and is said to be ideal for the R nineT being short and compact for an aggressive stance that is perfect for the 'Naked' Boxer. The high-pass version has two beautiful heat shields in hand-stamped and satin stainless steel.
Options for this 220 mm mandrel bent 1-into-2 exhaust include choices of satin and black ceramic finish and high or low double silencers and features the same precision hand TIG-welding CNC connections and Euro 5 homologation.
