Tyres
Checking tyre pressure
Incorrect tyre pressures impair the motorcycle's handling characteristics and increase
the rate of tyre wear.
Always check that the tyre pressures are correct.
At high road speeds, tyre
valves installed perpendicular to the wheel rim have a
tendency to open as a result of
centrifugal force.
In order to avoid a sudden loss of
tyre pressure, fit a valve cap with
rubber sealing ring to the rear
tyre and make sure that the cap
is screwed on firmly.
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motorcycle on its stand.
Check tyre pressures against
the data below.
Tyre pressure, front
2.5 bar (Tyre cold)
Tyre pressure, rear
2.9 bar (Tyre cold)
If tyre pressure is too low:
Correct tyre pressure.
Headlight
Adjusting headlight for
driving on left/driving on
right
This motorcycle has a
symmetric-beam low-beam
headlight. If the motorcycle
is ridden in a country where
the opposite rule of the road
applies, its symmetric lowbeam headlight means that
no measures are necessary to
prevent the headlight beam from
dazzling oncoming traffic.
Headlight beam throw and
spring preload
Headlight beam throw is generally kept constant when spring
preload is adjusted to suit load.
Spring preload adjustment might
not suffice only if the motorcycle
is very heavily loaded. Under
these circumstances, headlight
beam throw has to be adjusted
to suit the weight carried by the
motorcycle.
If there are doubts about
the correct headlight range,
seek the advice of a specialist
workshop, preferably an authorised BMW Motorrad dealer.
