Measured tyre pressure is out-
side permitted tolerance.

Check the tyre for damage and
to ascertain whether the mo-
torcycle can be ridden with the
tyre in its present condition.
If the motorcycle can be ridden
with the tyre in its present condi-
tion:
Incorrect tyre pressures im-
pair the motorcycle's hand-
ling characteristics.
If tyre pressure is incorrect it is
essential to adapt your style of
z
riding accordingly.
Correct the tyre pressure at the
earliest possible opportunity.
Before you adjust tyre pres-
sure, read the information
on temperature compensation
and adjusting pressure in the
section entitled "Engineering
details".
Have the tyre checked for
damage by a specialist
workshop, preferably an
authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
If you are unsure whether the
motorcycle can be ridden with
the tyre in its present condition:
Do not continue your journey.
Notify the breakdown service.

Possible cause:
The motorcycle has not yet ac-
celerated past the threshold of
approximately 30 km/h. The
RDC sensors do not start trans-
mitting signals until the motor-
cycle reaches a speed above
this threshold for the first time
(
76).
Increase speed above this
threshold and observe the RDC
readings. Assume that a per-
manent fault has not occurred
unless the 'General' warning
light comes on to accompany
the symptoms. Under these
circumstances:
Have the fault rectified by a
specialist workshop, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
Possible cause:
Wireless communication with the
RDC sensors has been disrupted.
Possible causes include radio-
communication systems operat-
ing in the vicinity and interfering
with the link between the RDC
control unit and the sensors.
Move to another location and
observe the RDC readings. As-
sume that a permanent fault
has not occurred unless the
'General' warning light comes
