De Rated Power Question

[Jojo]

Well here’s the bit I can’t get my head around, our A2 license (restricted license) allows bikes with up to 47bhp (35kW), so where’s the need for a 30bhp model when the full power model only has 42bhp (30kW).
I could understand having a lesser powered CE-04 if it had a longer range but having less power and range doesn’t make any sense to me.

Sounds like it's an A1 license issue? Seems they can definitely unrestrict it but only legally in Germany according to this. https://support.bmw-motorrad.com/s/...-of-A1-A2-classification-Cvlev?language=en_GB
