Wow! Although probably an overkill for a city bike and no EQ version I have to admit it looks really stunning ! You will surely enjoy it 😎

Yep looks like

not only that. If you get involved in an accident , you will likely get issues both with your bike and medical insurance and they may make you partly liable for the accident even of caused by the other party. I also find the idea of an unrestricted bike (or one as fast as a class 3 in US)...

Hi John, I did the move from the SL 4.0 to the SL2 6.0 (both EQ) a couple of months ago. Where it excels the 4.0 and 5.0: - the engine / battery is more powerful. I still have the 4.0 and when we ride together on both bikes, then the turbo mode on the 4.0 approximately equals the sport mode on...

interesting, thanks for the link

true, elevations are minor here but the coastal head winds can be fierce :cool:

Some pictures from a first larger trip - around 50 km alongside the Øresund between Denmark and Sweden to the old royal hunting slot and back (you see it on picture. In the background there is the Baltic Sea and the Swedish coast is visible too). I pumped up the tires a bit more (60 PSI) , so...

Now the first days with my new SL2 6.0 bike have passed. A few further observations: Good: - The motor is notably stronger and more silent than the old one (SL14.0) - The optimal cadence indicator on the TCU is useful - More gears on this one compared to the old model are a real plus - Battery...

Given the latest development on tariffs targetting car industry issued by the mad man in Washington, one may wonder if this was the right move by Brose to solemnly focus on their car business. But it seems existing Brose motors will continue to be served by Yamaha in case of a defect, so not...

Yes, meant cadence . The measurements are the same old / new bike but the handlebar sits higher and thud the right is more upright . Guess that’s why I get this feeling. Anyway will get it adjusted some time soon. Could maybe do it myself but the local bike shop 1 km away is actually pretty...

This evening I took the bike for my second short test ride . Hope to have more time on the weekend for a larger ride . If the weather is fine then I want to ride to office on Friday - 15 km each way . Getting to know the bike better then . What I really like so far: - smooth ride , thanks to...

The real problem is though that I actually world have preferred to test ride and then buy it directly in the store . But this is close to impossible because these bikes don’t seem to be readily available in any shop. I.e. in the end you are forced to buy it online and even there availability is...

Yes you are right , it is s bit more chunky and the wheels are wider . That was one reason for me thinking so long about doing the change or not . But I like the new model and finally went for it. The ride is smoother , quieter and the turbo mode more powerful . Your observation regarding...

Thanks ! These are the replacements .” Bennies Platform pedals”. Much better grip 😃

Today was the day! I finally got my new bike. I seemed to be a long wait since the bike already had arrived at the dealer a week ago (bought it online but chose it to be delivered to a dealer for asembly) . But they said they are too busy, some people ill, bike at their external warehouse...
