Introduction

This Repair Manual will help you to perform all the main maintenance and repair work correctly and effi­ciently. If it is consulted regularly by workshop personnel it will form a useful addition to the theoretical and practical knowledge acquired at the BMW Training Centre. It is a contribution toward achieving even higher Service quality.
A new issue of this repair manual will be published if amendments or additions (supplements) are needed.
All information in both text and illustrations refers to motorcycles in standard condition or with genuine BMW accessories installed, and not to motorcycles which have been modified in any way to depart from the manufacturer’s specification.
The Repair Manual is structured in the logical sequence of the work to be performed: Removal, Disas-
sembling, Repair, Assembly, Installation.
The entire contents are divided into individual chapters, corresponding to the Construction Groups.

If a reference is needed to a different page or chapter, an arrow symbol is shown followed by the chapter and page numbers, e. g. (
Work to be performed during an Inspection is described in Group “00”. The various inspection routines
are numbered I, II, III and IV. This numbering is repeated in the work descriptions which follow, so that work can take place without interruption.
a 12.5).
Use of the BMW special tools needed for certain tasks is described in the work instructions.
If the need arises, repair instructions are also issued in the form of Service Information. This information is of course incorporated into the next issue of the Repair Manual. We also recommend, as an additional source of information, the Electronic Parts Catalogue (ETK), which contains clear and easy-to-follow illus­trations.
If the work described here is restricted to a particular equipment specification, for instance if a specific op­tional extra (OE) is fitted, this is stated in square brackets at the start of the item concerned, e.g. [Heated handlebar grips].
Please refer to the following pages as well for a description of other symbols used and how to work with them.

61 21 Filling and charging the battery

d Warning:
Battery acid is highly caustic. Protect your eyes, face, hands, clothing and the paintwork.
Disengage the rubber strap holding the battery.
Disconnect the battery breather hose.
Remove the battery.
Fill all the cells with pure battery acid of
density 1.28 to the Upper Level mark.
Allow the battery to stand for approximately
30 minutes.
The battery does not achieve full charge capacity
from being filled, so it has to be charged with a battery charger.
L Note:
Follow the instructions for use supplied with the bat­tery charger.
Charge current (A)
.........................10 % of rated battery capacity (Ah)
Charging time
..............................................................5-10 hours
Battery charge can be measured by checking
the density of the battery acid.
Acid density
Battery fully charged
............1.26-1.30 at a temperature of 20 °C (68 °F)
Shake the battery slightly to allow the gas bub-
bles to escape. Wait until the battery acid has settled, check that
no more bubbles rise and if necessary, top up the acid to the max. mark. Reinstall the plugs.
Make a note of the charging date on the battery.
00.21

e Attention:
Connect the positive battery terminal first, then the negative terminal.
Install the battery.
L Note:
When connecting the battery lead, always make sure that the spring washer is between the screw head and the battery lead.

Checking engine oil level

00 00
Check whether there is oil in the tank (e.g. dip-
stick wetted).
e Attention:
Top up the level if there is no engine oil in the tank.

Apply acid-proof grease to the battery terminal
posts. Connect the battery breather hose.
Install the left cover.
Install the rear cover.
Install the stowage-compartment rail.
Install the seat.

Final cleaning

This is the ideal opportunity to familiarise the cus­tomer with the motorcycle in order to ensure the customer’s satisfaction and safety.
The following points must be demonstrated and
explained to the customer:
Documentation and stowage spaceToolkit and stowage spaceSuspension preload adjustment to suit total
weight
How to check the brake fluidHow to adjust the mirrorsControlsinstruments and telltale lightsOptional equipment and accessories fitted
The user must be given the following information:
Running-in recommendations and inspection in-
tervals
Safety checkHow to check the oil level in accordance with the
vehicle documentation
L Note:

Key to maintenance intervals

Maintenance tasks consist of the first Inspection (af­ter the first 1,000 km/600 miles), the BMW Service, BMW Inspection and BMW Annual Service.
Inspection 1,000 km (600 miles)
BMW Running-in Check after the first 1,000 km (600 miles).
BMW Service
After the first 10,000 km (6,000 miles) and each ad­ditional 20,000 km (12,000 miles) (at 30,000 km ... 50,000 km ... 70,000 km) (at 18,000 miles ... 30,000 miles ... 42,000 miles).
BMW Inspection
After the first 20,000 km (12,000 miles) and each additional 20,000 km (12,000 miles) (at 40,000 km ... 60,000 km ... 80,000 km) (at 24,000 miles ... 36,000 miles ... 48,000 miles).
BMW Annual Service
Certain maintenance tasks depend on elapsed time as well as the distance the motorcycle has covered. They should therefore be carried out at least once a year (e. g. changing brake fluid). If these tasks cannot be carried out during a Service or an Inspection, a BMW Annual Service must be performed.
In this Repair Manual, the individual maintenance in­tervals are shown by the following codes:
Inspection at 1,000 km (600 miles)......................I
BMW Service at 10,000 km (6,000 miles)...........II
BMW Inspection at 20,000 km (12,000 miles) .. III

and leave the forks at the full left lock position. Apply mark “A”.
Apply mark B.
Back off the adjusting screw until mark B is
aligned with mark “A”. Tighten clamping screw of steering tube.

dure: pay particular attention to the following. Raise the front wheel clear of the ground and
perform final check.
– With the front wheel off the ground, the weight of
the forks must be enough to turn the steering all the way to the left and right full lock positions as soon as the handlebars are moved away from the straight-ahead position.
