Details described or illustrated in this booklet may
differ from the motorcycle's
actual specification as purchased, the accessories fitted or the national-market
specification. No claims will
be entertained as a result of
such discrepancies.
Dimensions, weights, fuel
consumption and performance data are quoted to the
customary tolerances.
The right to modify designs,
equipment and accessories is
reserved.
Errors and omissions excepted.
These maintenance instructions were compiled for riders
who want to leave metalled
roads and use their motorcycles for sporty off-roading.
Before you go off-roading,
BMW Motorrad recommends
installing the accessories
supplied with the motorcycle.
In this way you can effectively
protect parts of the motorcycle that could otherwise be
at risk.
These maintenance instructions describe the procedures for installing the off-road
accessories and the procedure for removing the numberplate carrier and the mirrors.
Use the headlight guard
only when off-roading.
Riding on public roads with
the headlight guard fitted to
the motorcycle is prohibited.
Sporty off-roading inevitably
increases wear and tear on
the motorcycle, so extra
checks and maintenance
work over and above those
described in the Rider's
Manual are necessary. They
too are described in this
publication.
All the work described in
these Maintenance Instructions is supplementary to the
standard maintenance work
described in the "Service"
section of the Rider's Manual.
Please bear in mind that if the
motorcycle is used for sporty
off-roading, you must comply
with these additional maintenance instructions in order to
keep the motorcycle in good
running order.
Some of the work calls for
special tools and a thorough
knowledge of motorcycles.
If you are in doubt consult a
specialist workshop, preferably your authorised BMW
Motorrad dealer.
Damage not attended
to in good time or inadequately repaired can result in
consequential damage to the
motorcycle.
Consult a specialist workshop, preferably an authorised BMW Motorrad dealer,
as soon as possible if you
discover that the motorcycle
is damaged.
