Motorcycle with a roof bmw c1 price.

Bmw s infamous c1 scooter with a roof looks like it might be back on the drawing board according to these 2017 patent drawings which have just surfaced. Compared to a conventional scooter the c1 offered extra safety features and protection from the elements. The bmw c1 is an enclosed scooter manufactured by bertone for bmw. The patent describes how the modular design could allow bmw to easily produce different versions of the scooter with or without roof unit.

Both the uk and sweden however declined to exempt c1 riders. The c 650 gt c 650 sport c 400 x and c 400 gt plus the c evolution electric scooter which has not yet been imported to australia. The rider would sit in a car type seat with a four point seat belt and adopt a feet forward posture. A motorcycle with a roof that doubles as accident protection mcn reviews the bmw c1 125 plus specs and owner ratings.

Within the structure was a full bucket seat with 4 point seatbelt for the rider. The roof featured a windshield with a wiper behind was an integrated top box storage compartment. The german company currently has five scooters.

The patent originally filed in germany by bmw in november 2017 is for a modular design for the c evolution chassis to be paired with a c1 styled roof seat and rear storage area. It was crash tested and in some countries was exempt from helmet laws as a result not in the uk though. Presumably bmw is hoping that its development of a new roofed two wheel design will take significantly less time for wide scale adoption. The c1 was so safe in fact that many countries granted bmw s request that c1 riders be exempt from national helmet requirements.

Back in the 2000s bmw motorrad used to offer a very obscure model called the c1. Never got the c1 scooter but if you ve been.
