ATTENTION
Improper working on the
brake system
Endangering of the operating
safety of the brake system
Have all work on the brake
system carried out by ex-
perts.
Have the brakes checked
at an authorized workshop,
preferably an authorized
BMW Motorrad retailer.
Checking the front brake pad
thickness
Park the motorcycle, making
sure that the ground is firm
and level.
Visually inspect the brake pad
thickness on the left and right.
Viewing direction: between
wheel and front suspension
toward brake pads1.
Front brake-pad wear
limit
0.04 in (1.0 mm) (Only fric-
tion material without car-
rier plate. The wear marks
(grooves) must be clearly visi-
ble.)
If the wear marks are no longer
clearly visible:
WARNING
Dropping below the mini-
mum pad thickness
Reduced braking action, dam-
age to the brake
In order to ensure the oper-
ating reliability of the brake
system, make sure that the
brake pads are not worn be-
yond their minimum thick-
ness.
Have brake pads renewed
at a specialist workshop,
preferably an authorized
BMW Motorrad retailer.
