Always keep the spare key sep-
arately from the ignition key.Replacement and extra
keysYou can obtain replacement/extra
keys only through an authorised
BMW Motorrad dealer. The keys
are part of an integrated secur-
ity system, so the dealer is un-
der an obligation to check the
legitimacy of all applications for
replacement/extra keys. If you
want to have a lost key barred,
you have to bring with you all
the other keys that belong to
the motorcycle. A key that has
been barred can subsequently be
cleared and reactivated for use.ClockSetting clock
