tion material without car-
rier plate. Wear markings

Dropping below the mini-
mum pad thickness leads
to reduced braking performance

In order to ensure the operating
reliability of the brake system,
make sure that the brake pads
are not worn beyond their mini-
mum thickness.
Have the brake pads replaced
by a specialized workshop,
preferably an authorized BMW
Motorrad retailer.
