Hum, the CE04 has a somewhat limited range. If doing a long round trip that the bike can do if charged to say 90 or 100% then I fill her up to 90 or 100%. Regarding slow charging with a cord that came on the bike. I instead prefer 30A charging at the Level 2 charger. Although probably...

Thinking I read it is best to wait until the battery is down to 20% before recharging. Does it hurt if you do it sooner...say, in this example at 34%? Also, does the charge rate impact battery health? I finally understood how to change from 8A to 30A on my CE04 though does using the higher A...

Strange...or not. I got the bmw varo (spelled wrong) trunk. At some point, I did have an extra key cylinder but not a clue where it came from. Don't know if for some strange reason, bmw gives a spare cylinder with a scooter purchase (if so why lol).

So when is the first, of what will be an annual event, a NC CE04 camp out scheduled? I heard you were doing one next year. Granted, I just made this up but still :)

Had these laying around in a closet so figured would see if I could put one on the CE :) One can never have too much storage you know. Now to find some long Orange nylon plastic straps ties.

Dude, it is cause she thinks the bike is Cool :)

OK, so the World does not need to know this happened... New to TFT screens, though that is not an excuse. When I first got the bike I was able to go into the charge settings and chance it from 6 to 8A and the screen said OK by the setting. I totally failed to note I could yet also select a...

Good to know, tank you

Sounds like maybe it is a bmw ‘feature’. Soft of like the steering dampener they put in the steering head of the R18 bike (maybe select models). It seems somewhat useless based on what I read from others. Guessing it tosses such light extra light it is not effective much at all.

So two updates. This page speaks to quick charger option somewhat. https://www.bmw-motorrad-abudhabi.com/en/models/urban_mobility/ce04/range-and-charging.html#/section-charging-columns-and-charge-status Also, dealer sent me a sheet showing my CE04 has Option 04U2 Quick Charger. So, based on...

Thinking the Thank you for the input. My understanding, could be mistaken, is in the USA we do not have A1 and A2 permits thus thinking all CE04s sold in USA come with full hp. Nor am I thinking a ce04 limited to A1 vs A2 would effect charging rate; instead that is determined by if scooter...

Thank you Mkunes. Seems then I did not get the high charge option with my bike. I got a left over 2021 Avantgrade model and it has heated seats and grips so that is good enough and will live with the 8A charge rate. If mine does 10A bmw elected not to display that in the charge menu when bike...

My thanks again to Triangletom for his detailed post in a different thread on his CE04, his trips and detailed info about our CE04 scooters. I copied it and reference it from time to time. And thanks to others that post to the CE04 section, much appreciated all...

White is sharp with colored decals I feel. Nice and clean. Beaware if one for sale has a flat seat surface or a hump on it. Mine has a hump and don’t really like it. I get the reason for it, support for your lower back. I am 5’9” with 30” inseam yet at times want to sit further back on the...

I see I did a post twice in ce04. I wish to delete the did a 60 mile long trip post but do not see how to do that step.
