i5Introduction
Custom equipmentWhen you ordered your BMW
motorcycle, you chose various
items of custom equipment.
This Rider’s Manual describes
optional extras (OE) offered by
BMW and selected optional
accessories (OA). This
explains why the manual may
also contain descriptions of
equipment which you have not
ordered. Country-specific
deviations from the motorcycle
illustrated are also possible.
If your BMW contains equip-
ment which is not described in
this Rider’s Manual, this will be
described in separate operat-
ing instructions.
Technical dataAll dimensions, weights and
power ratings stated in the
Rider’s Manual are quoted to
the standards and comply with
the tolerance requirements of
the Deutsche Institut für Nor-
mung e. V. (DIN). Versions for
individual countries may differ.CurrencyThe high safety and quality
standards of BMW motorcy-
cles are maintained by con-
stant development work on
designs, equipment and
accessories. Because of this,
your motorcycle may differ
from the information supplied
in the Rider's Manual. Nor can
errors and omissions be
entirely ruled out. We hope
you will appreciate that noclaims can be entertained on
the basis of the data, illustra-
tions or descriptions in this
manual.
BMW Service Advanced technology requires
specially adapted methods of
maintenance and repair.
Incorrectly executed
maintenance and repair
work could result in subse-
quent damage and the safety
risks associated with this.
BMW recommends that you
have the necessary work on
your motorcycle performed ei-
ther by an authorised BMW
motorcycle dealer or by a
workshop that operates to
BMW specifications and
employs suitably trained
personnel. c
