Introduction

Custom equipment

When you ordered your BMW

motorcycle, you chose various

items of custom equipment.

This Rider’s Manual describes

optional equipment (OE)

offered by BMW and selected

optional accessories (OA).

This explains why the manual

may also contain descriptions

of equipment which you have

not ordered. Please note, too,

that your motorcycle might not

be exactly as illustrated in this

manual on account of country-

specific differences.

If your BMW was supplied with

equipment not described in

this Rider’s Manual, you will

find these features described

in separate manuals.

Technical data

All dimensions, weights and

power ratings stated in the

Rider’s Manual are quoted to

the standards and comply with

the tolerance requirements of

the Deutsche Institut für Nor-

mung e. V. (DIN). Versions for

individual countries may differ.

Currency

The high safety and quality

standards of BMW motorcy-

cles are maintained by con-

stant 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

errors and omissions be

entirely ruled out. We hope

you will appreciate that no

claims can be entertained on

the basis of the data, illustra-

tions or descriptions in this

manual.

BMW Service

Advanced technology requires

specially adapted methods of

maintenance and repair.

If maintenance and repair

work is performed inex-

pertly, it could result in conse-

quential damage and thus

constitute a safety risk. BMW

recommends that you have

the necessary work on your

motorcycle performed either

by an authorized BMW motor-

cycle retailer or by a workshop

that operates to BMW specifi-

cations and employs suitably

trained personnel.c
