BMW Service

For safety reasons and to main-

tain the value of your motorcy-

cle, regular maintenance

intervals have been laid down.

Always keep to the specified

maintenance intervals. This is

the only way to ensure that war-

ranty claims are not invalidated.

The contents of the mainte-

nance schedules are subject to

change, for reasons of safety,

due to modifications in, among

other things, materials.

Your authorized BMW motorcy-

cle retailer is best placed to

provide information on the cur-

rently specified Service,

Inspection and Annual Inspec-

tion work needed.

Important:

BMW refuses to accept liability

for damage or consequential

damage due to repairs or ser-

vice work performed by other

than BMW-authorized work-

shops.

Consequently, we advise you to

have service and maintenance

performed by your authorized

BMW motorcycle retailer’s spe-

cially trained, expert personnel,

and confirmed by an entry in the

Maintenance Instructions.

Authorized BMW motorcycle

retailers are supplied with the

latest technical information and

have the necessary technical

know-how and specially trained

staff.

It is advisable to contact your

authorized BMW motorcycle

retailer if you have any ques-

tions regarding your motorcy-

cle.

Authorized BMW motorcycle

retailers are fully informed about

all aspects of your motorcycle

and will gladly advise and assist

you.

Best wishes,

BMW Motorrad

Dear motorcycle enthusiast

BMW Service

For your own safety, use only

genuine BMW spare parts and

accessories approved by

BMW.

If you choose genuine BMW

accessories and spare parts

that have been tested and

approved, you can be sure that

BMW has performed the appro-

priate tests to confirm their suit-

ability for use on your

motorcycle. BMW accepts

product liability only for these

products.

Note, however, that BMW is

unable to accept liability for

spare parts and accessories

which it has not approved.

BMW cannot assess every sin-

gle product of outside origin in

order to decide whether it can

be used on or with a BMW vehi-

cle without constituting a safety

risk.

Nor is approval by an official

technical inspection authority,

or even the granting of a gen-

eral operating permit necessar-

ily a sufficient guarantee, since

these test procedures are not

always adequate.

Genuine BMW spare parts,

accessories and other products

which BMW has approved can

be obtained from all authorized

BMW motorcycle retailers,

together with expert advice on

their installation and use.

BMW Service

Maintenance is divided up into

Service, Inspection and Annual

Inspection.

BMW Inspection 1,000 km

(600 miles)

BMW running-in check after the

first 1,000 km (600 miles).

BMW Service

After the first 10,000 km

(6,000 miles) and every further

20,000 km (12,000 miles)

(30,000 km…, 50,000 km …,

70,000 km…) (18,000 miles...,

30,000 miles..., 42,000 miles)

BMW Inspection

After the first 20,000 km

(12,000 miles) and every further

20,000 km (40,000 km…,

60,000 km …, 80,000 km…)

(24,000 miles...,

36,000 miles..., 48,000 miles)

BMW Annual Inspection

Certain items of maintenance

depend on elapsed time as well

as the distance the motorcycle

has covered. These tasks must

therefore be performed at least

once a year (e.g. changing the

brake fluid).

If these items cannot be per-

formed during a Service or an

Inspection, an Annual Inspec-

tion must be performed.



Every authorized BMW motor-

cycle retailer has a fixed scale

of charges based on work times

and carefully calculated hourly

rates.

Fuel, lubricants and similar sub-

stances, filters, gaskets, etc.

are charged separately.
