In order to ensure the dependab-
ility of the brake system, do not
permit the brake pads to wear
past the minimum permissible
thickness.
Have the brake pads replaced
by a specialist workshop,
preferably an authorised BMW
Motorrad dealer.
Brake-pad wear
The rear brake has a brake-pad
wear indicator.
Shaft

How to interpret the marks:

Two rings visible: brake-pad

One ring visible: brake-pad

No rings visible: brake pads
worn to wear limit; check as

Checking brake-fluid
level, front brakes
A low fluid level in the
brake reservoir can allow air
to penetrate the brake system.
This significantly reduces braking
efficiency.
Check the brake-fluid level at
regular intervals.
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its centre stand.
Move the handlebars to the
straight-ahead position.
