Front-wheel stand

Installing front-wheel
stand
The BMW Motorrad front
wheel stand is not designed
to support motorcycles not fitted
with a centre stand or without
other auxiliary stands. A motor-
cycle resting only on the front
wheel stand and the rear wheel
can topple.
Place the motorcycle on its
centre stand or another auxiliary
stand before lifting the front
wheel with the BMW Motorrad

front-wheel stand.

Use basic stand with tool num-
ber (83 30 0 402 241) in com-
bination with front-wheel ad-
apter (83 30 0 402 243).
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its centre stand.
Slacken locating screws 1.
Push the two pins 2 apart un-
til the front suspension fits
between them.
Use locating pins 3 to set the
front-wheel stand to the de-
sired height.
Centre the front-wheel stand
relative to the front wheel and
push it against the front axle.
There is a risk of dam-
aging the sensor ring of
the BMW Motorrad Integral ABS.
Push the left pin in just far
enough to ensure that it clears
the sensor ring.
