ENGINE OIL
Checking engine oil level
ATTENTION
Misinterpretation of the oil
filling quantity, as the oil
level is temperature-depen-
dent (the higher the tem-
perature, the higher the oil
level)
Engine damage
Only check the oil level after
a longer journey or when
the engine is warm.
Run the engine at neutral until
the fan starts.
Switch off engine at operating
temperature.
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its center stand.
Wait five minutes to allow oil
to drain into the oil pan.
BMW Motorrad recom-
mends occasionally check-
ing the motor oil after a jour-
ney of at least 31 mi in order
to reduce the environmental
impact.
ATTENTION
Lateral tipping of the vehicle
Component damage cause by

Secure the vehicle from tip-
ping over laterally, preferably

ond person.
