Wheels
Tyre recommendation
For each size of tyre BMW Mo-
torrad tests certain makes, and
approves those that it certifies
as roadworthy. If BMW Motorrad
has not approved the wheels and
tyres, it cannot assess their suit-
ability or provide any guarantee
of road safety.
Use only wheels and tyres ap-
proved by BMW Motorrad for
your type of motorcycle.
You can obtain detailed informa-
tion from your authorised BMW
Motorrad dealer or on the Inter-
net at www.bmw-motorrad.com.
Effect of wheel size
on suspension-control
systems
Wheel size is very important as a
parameter for the ABS. In partic-
ular, the diameter and the width
of a motorcycle's wheels are pro-
grammed into the control unit
and are fundamental to all cal-
culations. Any change in these
influencing variables, caused for
example by a switch to wheels
other than those installed ex-
works, can have serious effects
on the performance of the sys-
tem.
The sensor rings are essential for
correct road-speed calculation,
and they too must match the
motorcycle's system and con-
sequently cannot be changed.
If you decide that you would like
to fit non-standard wheels to
your motorcycle, it is very im-
portant to consult a specialist
workshop beforehand, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer. In some cases, the data
programmed into the control unit
can be changed to suit the new
wheel sizes.
