How is the BMW CE 04
The BMW CE 04 has a futuristic design, with straight lines and defined angles, full of cutouts. It is bold, with the center and back formed practically by a flat piece.
The seat, described as “floating”, is completely flat, escaping the two-level trend, and which can leave the passenger with a blocked view.
The modern surface finish is in a light white, complemented by matte black sections in the front and side areas, as well as the “floating” seat.
In addition, there are trend-setting wheels (solid wheels) with a disc wheel look and a side stand that is integrated into the design styling.
Finally, the BMW CE 04 is offered in Germany, starting at €11,990. For more information, visit the BMW Motorrad UK website.
