Maintenance698
WheelsFor each size of tyre BMW
Motorrad tests certain makes,
and approves those that it cer-
tifies as roadworthy. If BMW
Motorrad has not approved
the wheels and tyres, it cannot
assess their suitability or pro-
vide any guarantee of road
safety. Use only wheels and
tyres approved by BMW
Motorrad for your type of
motorcycle.
You can obtain detailed infor-
mation from your authorised
BMW motorcycle dealer or by
visiting
www.bmw-motorrad.com on
the Internet.
Checking rims• Make sure the ground is level and firm and place the
motorcycle on its centre
stand
OE or side stand.
• Visually inspect the rims for defects.
• Have damaged rims checked and, if necessary,
replaced by a specialist
workshop, preferably an
authorised BMW motorcycle
dealer.
Checking tyre tread
depth Do not allow the tyres to wear
past the minimum depth per-
mitted by law in the country of
use. Your motorcycle's han-
dling and grip can be im-
paired even before the tyres
wear to the minimum tyre
tread depth permitted by law.
Have the tyres changed in
good time before they wear to
the minimum permissible tread
depth. c
Tyres have wear indica-
tors integrated into the
main tread grooves. If the tyre
tread has worn down to the
level of the marks, the tyre is
completely worn. The loca-
tions of the marks are indicat-
ed on the edge of the tyre, e.g.
by the letters TI, TWI or by an
arrow. c
• Measure the tyre tread depth only in the main tread
grooves with wear indicating
marks.

Care
• Coat bright metal/chrome-plated parts with an acid-
free grease (e.g. Vaseline).
• Place the motorcycle in a dry room on the centre stand
OA
or rear wheel stand.

way that both wheels are
clear of the ground.
Before laying the vehicle
up, have the engine oil
and the oil filter element
changed by a specialist work-
shop, preferably your author-
ised BMW motorcycle dealer.
Combine work for laying up/
restoring to use with a mainte-
nance service or inspection. c
