MAINTENANCE
Checking tyre tread depth
WARNING
Riding with badly worn tyres
Risk of accident due to im-
paired handling
If applicable, have the tyres
changed in good time be-
fore they wear to the min-
imum tread depth permitted
by law.
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its stand.
Measure the tyre tread depth
in the main tread grooves
with wear marks.
Wear indicators are built
into the main profile
grooves on each tyre. The tyre
is worn out when the tyre tread
has worn down to the level of
the marks. The locations of
the marks are indicated on the
edge of the tyre, e.g. by the
letters TI, TWI or by an arrow.
If the tyre tread is worn to min-
imum:
Replace tyre or tyres, as ap-
plicable.
WHEEL RIMS
Checking rims
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its stand.
Visually inspect the rims for
defects.
Have damaged rims checked
and, if necessary, replaced
by a specialist workshop,
preferably an authorised
BMW Motorrad retailer.
WHEELS
