Tires
Checking tire pressure
Incorrect tire inflation pres-
sure results in poorer hand-
ing characteristics of the motor-
cycle and reduces the life of the
tires.
Ensure proper tire inflation
pressure.
At high road speeds, tire
valves installed perpen-
dicular to the wheel rim have a
tendency to open as a result of
centrifugal force.
To avoid a sudden loss of tire in-
flation pressure, use valve caps
with a rubber sealing ring for
valves installed vertically to the
wheel rim and tighten firmly.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Check tire pressures against
data below.
Tire pressure, front
36.3 psi (2.5 bar) (With tire
cold)
Tire pressure, rear
42.1 psi (2.9 bar) (With tire
cold)
If tire pressure is too low:
Correct tire pressure.
Headlight
Adjusting headlight for
RHD/LHD traffic
If the motorcycle is ridden in a
country where the opposite rule
of the road applies, its asymmet-
ric low-beam headlight will tend
to dazzle oncoming traffic.
Have the headlight adjusted to
the relevant conditions by a spe-
cialized workshop, preferably an
authorized BMW Motorrad re-
tailer.
Headlight range and
spring preload
The headlight range generally
remains constant due to the ad-
justment of the spring preload to
the loading state.
Spring preload adjustment may
only be insufficient when the mo-
torcycle is very heavily loaded.
In this case, the headlight range
must be adjusted to the weight.
