Handing over the motorcycle
This is the ideal opportunity to familiarise the cus-
tomer with the motorcycle in order to ensure the
customer’s satisfaction and safety.
•
The following points must be demonstrated and
explained to the customer:
– documentation and stowage space
– toolkit and stowage space
– suspension preload adjustment to suit total
weight
– checking brake fluid/clutch operating fluid
– provision for adjusting handlebars lever positions
– procedure for adjusting seat
– how to adjust the mirrors
– controls
– instruments and telltale lights
– optional equipment and accessories fitted
– features of BMWIntegralABS:
brake servo,
residual braking function,
pump noises,
self-diagnosis with pull-away test.
•
The user must be given the following information:
– running-in recommendations and inspection
intervals
– safety check
– features of BMWIntegralABS:
fully integral brake,
brake-fluid levels in the control circuits remain
constant despite brake-pad wear.
– the clutch fluid level rises gradually as the motor-
cycle is ridden (clutch lining wear)
– always check the oil level when the engine is at
operating temperature, because the difference
between the oil level indicated when the engine
is at operating temperature and the oil level indi-
cated when the engine is very cold due to ex-
tremely low outdoor temperatures can be as
much as 10 mm (0.3937 in). After switching off
the engine at operating temperature, wait at least
5 minutes for the oil to drain back into the sump.
Checking the oil level just after the engine has
been run or when it is not properly warm will fal-
sify the reading.
