| 10.02.2013: I replaced parts of the original Topcaseholder, as it damaged plasticparts. The new system is from Zipserdesign "vectrixpro.wordpress.com/top-case-holder/" (Copy and Paste) This solution is much more reliable. Contact is vectrixpro@gmail.com 14.06.2014: Although, the battery is down to about 60% of its capacity, the bike still has a range of ~50 Km. 09.07.2014: I did a Battery revision during the last weeks, exchanging the weak cells. Now it has a capacity of 29Ah again. To keep the battery in good shape, the Charger is set to 27 Ah of useable energy. Autum 2014: I did Change the frontwheel as the bearings are worn out. Thanks to the wrecked scooter I had no costs, only work. 31.08.2015 Battery is still quite healthy. Around 24 AH can still be used. | |||||||
