Wheel rims and tires

Checking rims
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Visually inspect rims for de-
fects.
Have damaged rims checked
and, if necessary, replaced
by a specialist service facil-
ity, preferably an authorized
BMW Motorrad retailer.
Checking tire tread depth
WARNING
Riding with heavily worn
tyres
Risk of accident due to poorer
rideability
If necessary, replace the tyres
before the legally specified
minimum tread depth is
reached.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle.
Check tire tread depth in main
tread grooves with wear indica-
tors.
NOTICE
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 indi-
cated 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 the worn tires.
