Safety instructions 60 Do not ride without the correct clothing. Always wear: Helmet Motorcycling jacket and trousers Gloves Boots Riding 5 z Rider's equipment Settings of the spring-strut and shock-absorber system Imbalanced load Loose clothing Insufficient tyre pressure Poor tyre tread Etc. Correct loading Do not ride your motorcycle after consuming alcohol, drugs and/or medication. Risk of poisoning Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, which is colourless and odourless but highly toxic.
Risk of fire If misfiring causes unburned fuel to enter the catalytic converter, there is a danger of overheating and damage. For this reason, observe the following points: Do not run the fuel tank dry. Do not attempt to start or run the engine with a spark-plug cap disconnected. Stop the engine immediately if it misfires. Use only unleaded fuel. Comply with all specified maintenance intervals. Temperatures at the exhaust are high. Unburned fuel will destroy the catalytic converter.
5 Riding 62 z Checklist Starting Use the following checklist to check important functions, settings and wear limits before you ride off.
The start attempt is automatically interrupted if battery voltage is too low. Recharge the battery before you start the engine, or use jump leads and a donor battery to start. The engine starts. If the engine refuses to start, consult the troubleshooting chart in the section entitled "Technical data".
5 64 Have the fault rectified as quickly as possible by a specialist workshop, preferably an authorised BMW Motorrad dealer. Phase 2 Test of the wheel sensors as the motorcycle pulls away from rest. ABS warning light flashes. Riding ABS self-diagnosis z with BMW Motorrad ABS OE BMW Motorrad ABS performs self-diagnosis to ensure its operability. Self-diagnosis is performed automatically when you switch on the ignition. The motorcycle has to move forward a few metres for the wheel sensors to be tested.
Brake pads New brake pads have to bed down before they can achieve their optimum friction levels. You can compensate for this initial reduction in braking efficiency by exerting greater pressure on the levers. New brake pads can extend stopping distance by a significant margin. Apply the brakes in good time. Tyres New tyres have a smooth surface. This must be roughened by riding in a restrained manner at various heel angles until the tyres are run in.
Descending mountain passes 66 There is a danger of the brakes fading if you use only the rear brakes when descending mountain passes. Under extreme conditions, the brakes could overheat and suffer severe damage. Use both front and rear brakes, and make use of the engine's braking effect as well. Riding 5 z Wet brakes After the motorcycle has been washed, ridden through water or ridden in the rain, the brake discs and pads might be wet and the brakes might not take effect immediately.
The side stand is designed to support only the weight of the motorcycle. Do not lean or sit on the motorcycle with the side stand extended. Slowly lean the motorcycle to the side until its weight is taken by the stand and dismount to the left. If the motorcycle is on the side stand, the surface of the ground will determine whether it is better to turn the handlebars to the left or right.
5 Riding 68 z Dismount and keep your left hand on the left handlebar grip. Grip the rear frame with your right hand. Use your right foot on the pin of the centre stand to press the stand down until its curved feet touch the ground. Place your full body weight on the centre stand and at the same time pull the motorcycle to the rear. Excessive movements could cause the centre stand to retract, and the motorcycle would topple in consequence.
The volume of the tank can be utilised to the full only when the motorcycle is propped on its side stand. Recommended fuel grade 95 ROZ/RON (Super unleaded) 5 69 Refuel with fuel of the grade stated below; do not fill the tank past the bottom edge of the filler neck. Open the protective cap. Use the ignition key to unlock cap 1 of the fuel tank and pop the cap open.
5 Riding 70 tected against scratching. Use adhesive tape or soft cloths, for example, for this purpose. z The motorcycle can topple and fall on its side. Make sure that the motorcycle cannot topple sideways. Push the motorcycle onto the transportation flat and hold it in position: do not place it on the side stand or centre stand. Risk of damaging components. Take care not to trap components such as brake lines or wires.

6 72 Brake system with BMW Motorrad ABS with BMW Motorrad ABS OE Engineering details How does ABS work? z The amount of braking force that can be transferred to the road depends on factors hat include the coefficient of friction of the road surface. Loose stones, ice and snow or a wet road all have much lower coefficients of friction than a clean, dry asphalt surface. The lower the coefficient of friction, the longer the braking distance.
Within the limits imposed by physics, BMW Motorrad ABS ensures directional stability on any surface. The system is not optimised for special requirements that apply under extreme competitive situations off-road or on the track. Special situations The speeds of the front and rear wheels are compared as one means of detecting a wheel's incipient tendency to lock.
6 74 momentum take over and even BMW Motorrad ABS is unable to counteract their effects. Engineering details Tyre pressure monitoring RDC z with tyre pressure monitoring (RDC) OE Function A sensor integrated into each tyre measures the air temperature and the air pressure inside the tyre and transmits this information to the control unit. Each sensor has a centrifugalforce tripswitch that does not enable transmission of the measured values until the motorcycle has accelerated to about 30 km/ h.
6 75 Engineering details A warning is also issued if tyre pressure drops sharply but stays within the permitted tolerance.

9 Care 120 z Care products BMW Motorrad recommends that you use the cleaning and care products you can obtain from your authorised BMW Motorrad dealer. The substances in BMW Care Products have been tested in laboratories and in practice; they provide optimised care and protection for the materials used in your vehicle. The use of unsuitable cleaning and care products can damage vehicle components.
Soften stubborn dirt and insects by covering the affected areas with a wet cloth. Windscreen Clean off dirt and insects with a soft sponge and plenty of water. Fuel and chemical solvents attack the material of the windscreen; the windscreen becomes opaque or dull. Do not use cleaning agents. Chrome Use plenty of water and BMW shampoo to clean chrome, particularly if it has been exposed to road salt. Use chrome polish for additional treatment.
9 Care 122 z Remove stains of this kind immediately, using cleaning-grade benzene or petroleum spirit on a clean cloth or ball of cotton wool. BMW Motorrad recommends BMW tar remover for removing specks of tar. Remember to wax the parts treated in this way. Protective wax coating BMW Motorrad recommends applying only BMW car wax or products containing carnauba wax or synthetic wax. It is time to rewax the paintwork when water "puddles" on the surface, instead of forming beads.
