Parking your
motorcycle
Side stand
Switch off engine.
If the ground is soft or un-
even, there is no guaran-
tee that the motorcycle will rest
firmly on the stand.
Always check that the ground
under the stand is level and
firm.
The side stand is designed
to support only the weight
of the motorcycle.
Do not lean or sit on the
motorcycle with the side stand
extended.
Fold out side stand and park
motorcycle.
If the slope of the road permits,
turn the handlebars to the left.
On slopes point the motorcycle
uphill and engage 1st gear.

If the ground is soft or un-
even, there is no guaran-
tee that the motorcycle will rest
firmly on the stand.
Always check that the ground
under the stand is level and
firm.
The center stands could re-
spond to excessively force-
ful motion by folding back and
allowing the vehicle to fall over.
Do not sit on the motorcycle
while it is resting on the center
stand.
Fold out center stand and jack
up motorcycle.
On a grade, the motorcycle
should always face uphill; se-

Off-road riding
When driving offroad
Rims
As a touring Enduro model,
this motorcycle has also
been designed for light offroad
use on unpaved roads. However,
heavier offroad use can result
in damage to the standard cast
aluminum rims.
For heavier offroad use, use the
cross-spoke wheels available as
optional equipment.
After driving offroad
BMW Motorrad recommends
that the following be observed
after driving offroad:
Tire inflation pressure
A tire inflation pressure re-
duced for offroad driving
leads to poorer handling of the
motorcycle on paved roads and
can result in accidents.
