into the control unit and are fun-
damental to all calculations. Any
change in these influencing vari-
ables, caused for example by a
switch to non-standard installed
wheels, can have serious effects
on the performance of the con-
trol systems.
The sensor rings are essential
for correct road-speed calcula-
tion, and they too must match
the motorcycle's control sys-
tems and consequently cannot
be changed.
If you decide that you would like
to fit non-standard wheels to
your motorcycle, it is very im-
portant to consult a specialist
workshop beforehand, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer. In some cases, the data
programmed into the control
units can be changed to suit the
new wheel sizes.
