WARNING
Improperly performed main-
tenance and repair work
Accident hazard caused by sub-
sequent damage
BMW Motorrad recommends
having corresponding work
on the motorcycle carried out
by a specialized workshop,
preferably by an authorized
BMW Motorrad retailer.
To ensure that your BMW con-
sistently remains in optimal con-
dition BMW Motorrad urges you
to observe the recommended
service intervals.
Have all maintenance and repair
work confirmed in the "Service"
chapter in this manual. Doc-
umentation confirming regular
maintenance is essential for gen-
erous treatment of claims sub-
mitted after the warranty period
has expired (goodwill).
You can obtain information on
the contents of the BMW Ser-
vices from your BMW Motorrad
