depth
Your motorcycle's hand-
ling 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.
Make sure the ground is
level and firm and place the
motorcycle on its stand. Measure the tyre tread
depth in the main tread
grooves with wear marks.
Tyres have wear indic-
ators integrated into the
main tread grooves. The tyre
is worn out when the tyre
tread has worn down to the
level of the marks. The loca-
tions of the marks are indic-
ated on the edge of the tyre,
e.g. by the letters TI, TWI or
by an arrow.
If the tyre tread is worn to
minimum:
Replace tyre or tyres, as ap-
plicable.
RimsChecking rimsMake sure the ground is
level and firm and place the
motorcycle on its stand. Visually inspect the rims for
defects.
Have damaged rims
checked and, if necessary,
replaced by a specialist
workshop, preferably an
authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
WheelsApproved wheels and
tyresFor each size of tyre BMW
Motorrad tests certain makes,
and approves those that it
certifies as roadworthy. If
BMW Motorrad has not ap-
proved the wheels and tyres,
it cannot assess their suitab-
ility or provide any guarantee
of road safety.
Use only wheels and tyres ap-
proved by BMW Motorrad for
your type of motorcycle.
