Ensure proper tire inflation
pressure.
Brakes
When the motorcycle is
ridden on loose surfaces
or muddy roads, the brakes may
fail to take effect immediately
because of dirt or moisture on
the disks or brake pads.
Brake early until the brakes are
braked clean.
Driving on unpaved or dirty
roads leads to increased
brake pad wear.
Check the brake pad thickness
more often and replace the brake
pads sooner.
Spring preload and damping
Spring preload and damp-
ing values that have been
changed for offroad use reduce
handling characteristics on paved
surfaces.
Before returning to on-road use,
reset correct spring preload and
correct damping.
Rims
BMW Motorrad recommends
checking the rims for possible
damage after riding offroad.
Air cleaner insert
Engine damage due to
soiled air filter insert.
When driving in dusty terrain,
check air filter insert for soiling
at short intervals and clean or re-
place if necessary.
Use under very dusty conditions
(deserts, savannas, etc.) requires
the use air cleaner inserts spe-
cially developed for these kinds
of applications.
Refueling
Fuel specifications
For optimal fuel economy, the
gasoline should be sulfur-free or
very low in sulfur content.
Leaded fuel will destroy the
catalytic converter.
Do not refuel with leaded gaso-
line or gasoline with metallic
additives, e. g. manganese or
Iron.
Ethanol E85 might damage
the engine and fuel supply
system.
Do not refuel with E85, i.e. fuel
with an ethanol content of 85 %,
or with Flex Fuel.
Fuels with a maximum ethanol
content of 10 %, i. e., E10,
may be used for refueling.
