Accessories and loads
d Warning:
BMW cannot examine or test
each product of outside origin
on the accessories and tyres
market to ensure that it can
be used on or in connection
with BMW motorcycles with-
out constituting a safety haz-
ard. Even approval by an
official inspection authority or
an official permit (General Op-
erating Permit) cannot always
provide this guarantee. Tests
conducted by these instanc-
es cannot make provision for
all operating conditions expe-
rienced by BMW motorcycles
and consequently, they are
not sufficient in some circum-
stances.
L Note:
BMW accessories and other
products approved by BMW
can be obtained from your
BMW motorcycle dealer.
