Preface
This Repair Manual is intended to assist you in performing all essential maintenance and repair operations
to a professional standard. In its role as a reference source for service personnel, it supplements and expands upon the theoretical and hands-on instruction provided at our training centres to enhance the quality
of our service.
A new edition of this manual will be issued in response to required revisions or the need to incorporate additional information (supplements).
The illustrations and descriptions contained in this manual apply exclusively to standard, unmodified BMW
Motorcycles and/or BMW Motorcycles equipped with factory-approved BMW accessories and options.
The Repair Manual's structure reflects the logical sequence in which the operations it describes will be
•
performed: removal, dismantling, repairs, assembly and installation.
The individual chapters in this manual correspond to the motorcycle's individual assembly groups.

A reference arrow with chapter and page calls your attention to additional information contained in another
section of the manual.
e.g. a ................ Refer to Assembly Group 46
Group "00" describes the operations carried out in the course of each Inspection. The various inspec-
•
tion routines are numbered I, II, III and IV. To help in maintaining a continuous, logical work sequence,
these same numerical designations are employed to identify the subsequent sections describing the actual repair operations.
Use of the BMW special tools needed for certain operations is described in the work instructions.
•
When the need arises, repair instructions are also issued in the form of Service Information Bulletins. This
information is then incorporated into subsequent editions of the repair manual. We also recommend the
lavishly illustrated Electronic Parts Catalogue as a supplementary source of information.
When individual steps within an overall operation only apply to motorcycles with specific accessories or
optional equipment, the options to which the steps refer are identified by brackets at the start of the line,
such as
