Environmental protection
Development …Motorcyclists have an intensive
relationship with nature. BMW
has made sure that they con-
tinue to enjoy the best possible
prospects for successful riding
in the future.
This not only because your new
BMW is available with exhaust
emission control by closed-
loop, three-way catalytic
converter.
… waste disposal …Behind the scenes, in the repair
shop, we do not neglect the
pro-environmental aspects of
our work either.
Wherever possible, we use
environmentally acceptable
biodegradable materials. We
ensure strict compliance with
all environmental legislation, for
example the correct disposal of
old oil, which is now classified
as hazardous waste in many
countries.
…recyclingAlongside the correct disposal
of environmentally hazardous
materials, recycling is another
high-priority issue for BMW.
For example, plastics that are
marked according to type can
more easily be returned to the
materials cycle. Remember:
when it comes to making
repairs to your motorcycle, the
authorised BMW motorcycle
workshop is far better equipped
to protect the environment than
you are at home.
