Introduction

This Repair Manual will help you to perform all the main maintenance and repair work correctly and effi­ciently. It should be consulted regularly by workshop personnel as an addition to the practical and theoret­ical knowledge obtained in Training School courses. It is a contribution towards achieving even higher Service quality.
A new issue of this repair manual will be published if amendments or additions (supplements) are needed. The latest issue date is shown in the header of the microfiche. Microfiches rendered invalid by the new issue should be destroyed without delay.
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-
sembly, Repair, Assembly, Installation.
The entire contents are divided into individual chapters, corresponding to the Construction Groups.
11 . 10
Chap. Page number within chapter
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.
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 you to consult the detailed illustrations on the Parts microfiches as an additional source of information.

Filling and charging the battery

Disengaging and raising the fuel tank

Remove seat.
Remove right side trim.
e Caution:
Fuel is flammable and a hazard to health. Observe relevant safety regulations.
Remove the fastener securing the fuel tank at the
rear right. Raise the rear of the fuel tank and prop it in this
position on a wooden block or similar.

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 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 (amps)
.........................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 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.
e Caution:
Connect the positive battery terminal first, then the negative terminal.
Install the battery.
Apply acid-proof grease to the battery terminal
posts. Connect the battery breather line.
Secure the fuel tank in position.
Install the right side trim panel.
Install the seat.

Switch on the ignition.
Without starting the engine, fully open the throttle
once or twice so that the Motronic control unit can register the throttle-valve positions.
L Note:
Disconnecting the battery deletes all entries (e.g. faults, settings) stored in the Motronic control unit’s memory. Loss of settings can temporarily impair the operat­ing characteristics when the engine is restarted.

Final inspection and function check

Handing over the motorcycle

Clutch
Check gear shift action.
Handbrake and foot brake
Check lights and signalling equipment:
Front and rear parking lightsInstrument lightingLow and high headlight beams, headlight flasherBrake light (operate brake at front and rear)Turn signals left/rightHazard warning flashersHornTelltale and warning lightsInstruments
Where necessary, check function of optional ex-
tras:
– ABS: perform starting test. When a speed of
5 km/h (app. 3 mile/h) is reached, both ABS warning lights must go out. If necessary, take the motorcycle for a test ride.
Confirm pre-delivery check in Service and Tech-
nical Booklet. See “Checking motorcycle for damage if defects
are found.

Final cleaning

Clean the motorcycle.
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
checking brake fluid/clutch operating fluidprovision for adjusting handlebar lever positionshow to adjust the mirrorscontrolsinstruments and telltale lightsoptional equipment and accessories fittednoise during the regular ABS self-diagnosis pro-
cedure The user must be given the following information:
running-in recommendations and inspection in-
tervals
safety checkthe clutch fluid level rises gradually as the motor-
cycle is ridden (clutch lining wear)
– before checking the engine oil level, the engine
must be switched off for at least 10 minutes and the motorcycle must be standing on a flat, level surface
L Note:
Do not use a steam or high-pressure water jet. The high steam or water pressure could damage seals, the hydraulic system or electrical components.
