WARNING
Improperly performed maintenance and
repair work
Accident hazard caused by subsequent
damage
BMW Motorrad recommends
having corresponding work on the
motorcycle carried out by a specialized
workshop, preferably by an authorized
BMW Motorrad retailer.
To ensure that your BMW is always in opti-
mal condition, BMW Motorrad advises that
you observe the recommended service inter-
vals.
Have all maintenance and repair tasks con-
firmed in the Service Chapter in this manual.
Documented proof of scheduled preventive
maintenance is essential for generous treat-
ment of claims submitted after the warranty
period has expired (goodwill).
You can obtain information on the
contents of the BMW Services from your
BMW Motorrad retailer.
BMW MOTORRAD ELECTRONIC SERVICE
HISTORY (ESH)
Entries
Maintenance work that has been performed
is recorded in the diagnostics and informa-
tion system. Like a Service Booklet, these
entries provide proof of regular mainte-
nance.
If an entry is made in the vehicle's eSH,
service-related data is stored on the central
IT systems of BMW AG in Munich, Germany.
When there is a change in vehicle owner, the
data entered in the eSH can also be viewed
by the new vehicle owner. A BMW Motorrad
retailer or specialist workshop can view the
data entered in the electronic Service Man-
ual.
Objection
At the BMW Motorrad retailer or specialist
workshop, the vehicle owner can object to
the entry of data in the electronic Service
Manual with the related storage of data in
the vehicle and the transfer of data to the
vehicle manufacturer during his time as the
vehicle owner. In this case, no entry is made
in the vehicle's electronic Service Manual.
