Know how…In recent years, motorcycles ’
technical design features have
become more and more
sophisticated.
Motronic, electronic ignition,
integral brakes, the catalytic
converter or the use of four
valves per cylinder are clear
signs that far more than basic
technical knowledge may be
needed to solve certain prob-
lems. In addition, high-tech
materials are increasingly tak-
ing the place of conventional
ones, which again calls for thor-
ough and expert knowledge if
they are to be handled correctly
during repair work.
To be sure of achieving the nec-
essary standard, it is always
advisable to consult your
authorised BMW motorcycle
dealer. The authorised BMW motorcy-
cle dealer employs staff who
attends regular and compre-
hensive training courses.
Authorised BMW motorcycle
dealers also receive all the cur-
rent technical information and
are therefore fully aware of the
latest developments.
…
technical features …The authorised BMW motorcy-
cle dealer’s staff has the experi-
ence and all the necessary
facts at its disposal when it
comes to solving problems
quickly and effectively. Work-
shops are equipped with the
latest technical facilities, for
example the special tools
developed by BMW, such as
the BMW diagnostic system
and exhaust emissions tester.
