Information on changing bulbs
Your motorcycle is equipped
with Digital Motor Electronic
(MOTRONIC) engine manage-
ment and a high-output ignition
system.
d Warning:
Only carry out work on the
electrical system when the
circuit has been interrupted
(switch off ignition). For
greater safety, disconnect
and insulate the negative bat-
tery lead.
When the engine is running or
the ignition is switched on, do
not touch any electrically live
components, terminals or
wiring.
–Risk of fatal accident!
e Important:
Your vehicle has a high-beam/
low-beam bulb, a brake-light
bulb/rear-light bulb, a parking-
light bulb, a bulb for the
number-plate light, and four
bulbs for the turn indicators.
If any of these bulbs fail, you
may have problems in seeing
and being seen.
You should therefore always
carry spare bulbs on the motor-
cycle.
L Note:
Do not touch the glass of new
bulbs with the fingers.
Use a clean, dry cloth to hold
the bulbs when inserting them.
Dirt deposits, in particular oil
and grease, interfere with heat
radiation from the bulb. This
leads to overheating and short-
ens the bulb’s operating life.

Maintenance and care
2
Laying upClean the motorcycle (
b 55-58)
Remove the battery (
b 50-53), note the mainte-
nance instructions (
b 51)
Spray the brake and clutch lever pivots and the main and
side stand pivots with a suita-
ble lubricant
Coat bright metal/chrome- plated parts with an acid-free
grease (e.g. Vaseline)
Place the motorcycle on its main stand in a dry room
Support the engine in such a way that both wheels are
clear of the ground Remove the engine spoiler to
obtain space for the support;
avoid damaging the exhausts
when installing the support
L Note:
Before laying the vehicle up out
of use have the engine oil and
the oil filter element changed by
a specialist workshop, prefera-
bly your authorised BMW
Motorrad dealer.
It is always a good idea to com-
bine the preparations for a lay-
up and the post lay-up work
with a Service or Inspection by
a specialist workshop, prefera-
bly your authorised BMW Mo-
torrad dealer.
