Possible loss of stopping
power at front brake.
Screen insert in the front brake-
z
fluid reservoir always has to be
replaced on completion of work
that affects the level of fluid
in the front braking circuit (for
example replacing brake pads
or changing brake fluid). Please

for this purpose, preferably an
authorized BMW Motorrad

level
A low fluid level in the
brake reservoir can allow air
to penetrate the brake system.
This significantly reduces braking
efficiency.
Check brake fluid level
regularly.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and place motorcycle on
its center stand.
Read off brake fluid level at
rear brake-fluid reservoir 1.
The brake fluid level in the
brake-fluid reservoir drops
due to brake pad wear.
