Safety instructions 60 Do not ride without the correct clothing! Always wear: Helmet Motorcycling jacket and trousers Gloves Boots Riding 5 z Rider's equipment This applies even to short journeys, and to every season of the year. Your authorised BMW Motorrad dealer will be glad to advise you on the correct clothing for every purpose. Loading Overloading and imbalanced loads can adversely affect the motorcycle's handling.
Payload of tankbag ≤5 kg Maximum permissible speed for riding with the tankbag fitted to the motorcycle ≤130 km/h Speed If you ride at high speed, always bear in mind that various boundary conditions can adversely affect the handling of your motorcycle: Settings of the spring-strut and shock-absorber system Imbalanced load Loose clothing Insufficient tyre pressure Poor tyre tread Etc. Risk of poisoning Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, which is colourless and odourless but highly toxic.
Comply with all specified maintenance intervals. 62 Unburned fuel will destroy the catalytic converter. Note the points listed for protection of the catalytic converter. question and lead to failure of safety-relevant functions. Damage caused in this way is not covered by the warranty. Do not tamper with the motorcycle in any way that could result in tuned performance.
Consult the troubleshooting chart below if the engine refuses to start. ( 120) Pre-ride check The instrument panel runs a test of the 'General' warning light when the ignition is switched on: this is the "Pre-Ride-Check". The test is aborted if you start the engine before it completes. For initialisation, the exhaust flap is opened fully once and then closed again. Press starter button 1. The start attempt is automatically interrupted if battery voltage is too low.
5 Riding 64 z Phase 1 Test of the diagnosis-compatible system components with the vehicle at a standstill. ABS warning light flashes. Phase 2 Test of the wheel sensors as the vehicle pulls away from rest. The motorcycle must reach a speed of at least 5 km/h in order for ABS selfdiagnosis to complete. ABS warning light flashes. ABS self-diagnosis completed The ABS warning light goes out. If an indicator showing an ABS fault appears when ABS self-diagnosis completes: You can continue to ride.
Running in Engine Until the first running-in check, vary the throttle opening and engine-speed range frequently; avoid riding at constant engine rpm for prolonged periods. Try to do most of your riding during this initial period on twisting, fairly hilly roads, avoiding high-speed main roads and highways if possible. Comply with the rpm limits for running in. Running-in speed <7000 min-1 Do not omit the first running-in check after 500 - 1200 km.
Shift assistance is not available in the following situations: Gearshifts with the clutch disengaged Gearshifts with the throttle valve closed (engine overrun) Downshifts. 5 Riding 66 z Brakes The sensor 1 in the shift linkage registers the shift request and triggers shift assistance. When you are riding at constant speed with the engine revving high in a low gear, upshifting without disengaging the clutch can cause a severe reaction to the load change.
There is a danger of the brakes fading if you use only the rear brakes when descending mountain passes. Under extreme conditions, the brakes could overheat and suffer severe damage. With the BMW integrated brake system, the rear brake is activated when the handbrake lever is pressed. This protects against overheating. Only use the front brake and utilise engine braking. Wet and dirty brakes Wetness and dirt on the brake discs and the brake pads diminish braking efficiency.
5 68 On a gradient, the motorcycle should always face uphill; select 1st gear. Centre stand Riding with centre stand generation II OA z Switch off the engine. If the ground is soft or uneven, there is no guarantee that the motorcycle will rest firmly on the stand. Always check that the ground under the stand is level and firm. Excessive movements could cause the centre stand to retract, and the vehicle would topple in consequence. Do not lean or sit on the motorcycle with the centre stand extended.
Leaded fuel will destroy the catalytic converter. Do not attempt to run the vehicle on leaded fuel or fuel with metallic additives, e.g. manganese or iron. Refuel with fuel of the grade stated below; do not fill the tank past the bottom edge of the filler neck. If filling occurs after the fuel level has gone below the reserve limit, the amount filled must be greater than the reserve amount for the new fuel level to be recognised and the warning light to switch off.
5 Riding 70 z Risk of damaging components. Take care not to trap components such as brake lines or wires. At the front, place the strap over the frame and route it downwards. Feed the strap forwards through the wheel carrier and tighten it downwards. At the rear, secure the straps to the rear footrests on both sides and tighten the straps. Tighten all the straps uniformly; the motorcycle's suspension should be compressed as tightly as possible front and rear.

6 72 Brake system with BMW Motorrad Integral ABS Engineering details Partially integral brakes z Your motorcycle is equipped with partially integral brakes. Both front and rear brakes are applied when you pull the handbrake lever. The footbrake lever acts only on the rear brake. While the brakes are slowing the motorcycle, the BMW Motorrad Integral ABS adapts braking-force distribution between front and rear brakes to suit the load on the motorcycle.
What feedback does the rider receive from the BMW Motorrad Integral ABS? If the ABS system has to reduce braking force on account of the circumstances described above, vibration is perceptible through the handbrake lever. When the handbrake lever is pulled, brake pressure is also built up at the rear wheel by the integral function.
6 Engineering details 74 z In addition to problems with the BMW Motorrad Integral ABS, exceptional riding conditions can lead to a fault message being issued. Exceptional riding conditions: Heating up with the motorcycle on the centre stand or an auxiliary stand, engine idling or with a gear engaged. Rear wheel locked by the engine brake for a lengthy period, for example while descending on a loose surface.
BMW Motorrad ASC is designed as an assistant system for the rider and for use on public roads. The extent to which the rider affects ASC control can be considerable (weight shifts when cornering, items of luggage loose on the motorcycle), especially when the style of riding takes the rider and machine close to the limits imposed by physics. The system is not optimised for special requirements that apply under extreme competitive situations off-road or on the track.
6 Engineering details 76 z If the front wheel lifts clear of the ground under severe acceleration, ASC reduces engine torque until the front wheel regains contact with the ground. Under these circumstances, BMW Motorrad recommends rolling the throttle slightly closed so as to restore stability with the least possible delay. When riding on a slippery surface, never snap the throttle twistgrip fully closed without pulling the clutch at the same time.
The tyre-pressure readings shown by the multifunction display are temperaturecompensated; the reference tyre temperature for these readings is always 20 °C. The air lines available to the public in petrol stations and motorway service areas have gauges that do not compensate for temperature; the reading shown by a gauge of this nature is the temperaturedependent tyre pressure. In most instances, therefore, these gauge readings will not tally with the pressures shown by the multifunction display.
6 Engineering details 78 z The static normal position is almost maintained even while riding. The different riding conditions and load statuses are compensated, so that the handling of the motorcycle remains constant. It is possible to change the spring rate electronically by combining a conventional coil spring and a plastic element (Elastogran), the lateral expansion of which can be restricted electro-hydraulically using a displaceable sleeve.
