ENGINE OIL

Checking engine oil level
ATTENTION
Misinterpretation of oil level
reading, because oil level is
temperature-dependent (the
higher the temperature, the
higher the oil level)
Engine damage
Check the oil level only after
a lengthy ride or when the
engine is at operating tem-
perature.
Make sure the engine is at
operating temperature and
hold the motorcycle upright.
Allow the engine to idle for
one minute.
Switch off the ignition.
Wait five minutes for the oil
to drain into the oil pan.
To protect the environ-
ment, BMW Motorrad re-
commends occasionally check-
ing the engine oil after a jour-
ney of at least 50 km.
ATTENTION
Vehicle toppling sideways
Risk of damage to parts if
vehicle topples
Secure the vehicle, prefer-
ably with the assistance of
a second person, so that it
cannot topple sideways.
Check the oil level in the
display 1.
