Equipment

When purchasing your BMW mo-

individual equipment. This rider's

manual describes optional equip-

ment (OE) and selected optional

accessories (OA) provided by

BMW. Please make allowance

for the fact that some equip-

ment specifications may be de-

scribed that you have not selec-

ted. Equally, country-specific de-

If your motorcycle has equipment

that is not described, you will find

Technical data

All dimensions, weights and

power outputs in the rider's

manual refer to the German

standard DIN (Deutsches Institut

für Normung e. V.) and comply

with its specified tolerances.

Technical data and specifications

in this rider's manual serve as

reference points. The vehicle-

specific data may deviate from

these, for example as a result of

selected optional equipment,

the national-market version or

country-specific measuring

procedures. Detailed values

can be taken from the vehicle

registration documents and

signs on the vehicle, or can be

obtained from your authorised

BMW Motorrad Retailer or

another qualified service partner

or specialist workshop. The

specifications in the vehicle

documents always have priority

over the information provided in

this rider's manual.

General instructions

Currentness

The high safety and quality level

ult in deviations between these

not be completely excluded by

BMW Motorrad. Please therefore

understand that we do not ac-

cept any liability for claims arising

from incorrect information, draw-

ings and descriptions.
