Overview

An important aspect of this

Rider's Manual is that it can

be used for quick and easy

reference. Consulting the

extensive index at the end of

this Rider's Manual is the fastest

way to find information on a

particular topic or item. Chapter

2 will provide you with an initial

overview of your motorcycle. All

the necessary maintenance and

servicing work on the motorcycle

is documented in Chapter 11.

This record of the maintenance

work you have had performed on

your motorcycle is a precondition

for generous treatment of

goodwill claims.

When the time comes to sell

your BMW please remember to

hand over this Rider's Manual; it

is an important part of the motor-

cycle.

symbols

Indicates warnings that you

must comply with for reas-

ons of your safety and the safety

of others, and to protect your

product against damage.

just or look after items of equip-

ment on the motorcycle.

Equipment

When you ordered your BMW

motorcycle, you chose various

items of custom equipment.

This Rider's Manual describes

optional extras (OE) offered by

BMW and selected optional ac-

cessories (OA). This explains why

the manual may also contain de-

scriptions of equipment which

you have not ordered. Please

note, too, that your motorcycle

might not be exactly as illus-

trated in this manual on account

of country-specific differences.

If your motorcycle contains

equipment that has not been

described, its description can be

found in a separate manual.

Technical data

All dimensions, weights and

power ratings stated in this

Rider's Manual are quoted to the

standards and comply with the

tolerance requirements of the

Deutsches Institut für Normung

e.V. (DIN). Versions for individual

countries may differ.

Currency

The high safety and quality

standards of BMW motorcycles

are maintained by constant

development work on designs,

equipment and accessories.

Because of this, your motorcycle

may differ from the information

supplied in the Rider's Manual.

Nor can BMW Motorrad entirely

rule out errors and omissions.

We hope you will appreciate that

no claims can be entertained on

the basis of the data, illustrations

or descriptions in this manual. 1
