I doubt that, wasn't there only 1 colour scheme for the HP2.

Copied from http://www.superbike-uk.co.uk/index.php?topic=36.msg27828;topicseen#new from the big dog Boyce who works for BMW
Should be released approx October ish time circa £21k looks the absolute tits
has had a line of HP – for High Performance – motorcycles for seven years, but they have all used the company's signature boxer engine layout. The new HP4, on the other hand, is a 1000-cc class bike using an evolution of the four-cylinder engine from the S 1000 RR sport bike.
A homologation special, the configuration isn't the only first in the HP4's arsenal: it comes standard with an active, electrically-actuated Dynamic Damping Control, a torque-adjusting Launch Control system, and claims its the lightest four-cylinder supersports bike in its class, with a dry weight of 169 kg (371.8 pounds) and 199kg (437.8 pounds) with a 90-percent full tank. Bits like the lightweight, forged wheels, titanium exhaust and lighter sprocket carrier and battery have helped shed the pounds.
The engine cranks out 193 horsepower and 82 foot-pounds, the same numbers as on the S 1000 RR. However, every bit of horsepower is available in all the traction control modes, torque response has been boosted from 6,000 rpm, and the torque delivery curve is smoother when the traction control is in Rain mode. Helping a rider keep it all under control are that Launch Control, a shift assistant for seamless gearchanges, an updated, four-mode Race ABS system, traction control that can be adjusted on the fly, and Brembo monoblock brake calipers.
There's a competition package offered to harden its edge further, and a passenger package if you need to go the other way, but with two. Price hasn't been divulged, but there's a press release below full of the kinds of details that let you know the HP4 won't be a bargain.
