    Broken Tail Light

    Yes once it senses that there is a correct connection it will work again. Fear not.

    German Optimism

    That will depend on if you decide to wear something else or nothing at all. If nothing at all is the option then depending on the volume of exposed hair there could be some wind drag. If you shave clean then you may be a hair faster…… Of course you should be wearing a helmet protection is very...

    German Optimism

    I used the title of optimism for the speedometer reading 3 to 4 miles faster than actual. My German scooter is being optimistic in it’s actual speed….. As far as range well I am not one to squeeze economy from any of my vehicles. I subscribe to the “ride it like you stole it” mentally. That...

    German Optimism

    I recently measured my top speed using GPS to determine how accurate the speedometer is on my CE04. The method was less than scientific so the results are close enough but not perfect. Top speed on the speedo was 80 mph, GPS said 77 mph. When I measured velocity at different maintained speeds...

    Sticky backseat……

    Hi, I was wondering if anybody else has had this problem. The back of my seat, covered with grey vinyl, on the other side of the hump, where the passenger should sit, has gotten very tacky. Keep in mind my scoot doesn’t have a garage to sit in and doesn’t always get it’s cover put on it when...

    High Windscreen - Finally!

    I am not sure that this will work on the Puig windscreen. The BMW screen has a flat surface which is not true of the Puig. It would need to be one supplied by Puig for their screen, or I just make my own.

    High Windscreen - Finally!

    I didn’t know that was an option, can you please send a link….there is quite a bit of flex at speeds over 50mph, reinforcement would be helpful.

    Wunderlich Side Case

    As an alternative you could just use their mounting system and your own choice of bags. https://www.unitgarage.com/special_parts/bags_and_accessories/quick_release_system_bags https://www.unitgarage.com/special_parts/bags_and_accessories/internal_plastic_for_u001_and_u002_side_panniers...

    Wunderlich Side Case

    I have ordered a few things from Wunderlich, and I find that their quality is very similar to IKEA. Some things are very good some are very cheap. Have you looked at Unit Garage. They have nice styles and decent quality. https://www.unitgarage.com/bmw/ce_04/ce_04/special_parts

    Broken Tail Light

    I totally agree with you. When my left signal broke it stayed attached till I when over some train tracks then it fell off. When I went back for it, it was crushed flat. I had to drive home about 20 miles at night, and my only rear light that worked was the right turn signal. I was glad I had my...

    Broken Tail Light

    This part first appeared on their sport bikes a few years back now. They may have had similar issues then, but it is still in use. All they would need to do is change the plastic stalk to rubber, that may affect the function and reliability of the electronics used in its operation. However, I...

    High Windscreen - Finally!

    I didn’t notice much glare off the TFT screen before, but I did install a screen guard. It has a matte finish. The dark tint does make it darker around the TFT. I have the brightness turned up to 11 on the screen.

    High Windscreen - Finally!

    Less wind pressure on the helmet from the front. Buffeting is very slight, but more wind noise with my helmet. I am seeing more efficiency in battery use. I am 67” tall with a 31” inseam. I am on the freeway frequently with speeds between 65 and 80 mph and find the tall wind screen is nice for...

    HandGrips or HandBar covers?

    Hello, I have a tall windscreen on my bike. I opted for the Puig model. It helps with aerodynamics and I get better range since I installed it. It does move the wind off my chest. There has been an increase in wind noise on the helmet. I am currently waiting for a spoiler to mount on the top of...
