Subject wheel rims to visual
inspection for defects.
Have damaged rims checked
and, if necessary, replaced
by a specialist service facil-
ity, preferably an authorized
BMW Motorrad retailer.
Checking tire tread depth
The handling of your mo-
torcycle can already change
for the worse before the legally
prescribed minimum tread depth
is reached.
Have tires replaced even be-
fore the minimum tread depth
is reached.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Measure tire tread depth in
main tread grooves with wear
indicating marks.
Tread wear marks are
integrated into the main
grooves on every tire. If the tire
tread has worn down to the
level of the marks, the tire is
completely worn. The locations
of the marks are indicated on
the edge of the tire, e.g. by the
letters TI, TWI or by an arrow.
When the minimum tread depth
is reached:
Replace tires concerned.
Removing front wheel
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Remove screw 1 and take
wheel speed sensor out of
bore.
Mask off areas of wheel rim
that could be scratched in the
process of removing the brake
calipers.
