BMW Annual Inspection
Certain items of maintenance
work depend on elapsed time
as well as the distance the
motorcycle has been driven.
They must therefore be carried
out at least once a year (e.g.
changing brake fluid).
If these items cannot be per-
formed during a Service or an
Inspection, an Annual Inspec-
tion must be performed.

Maintenance work

Every authorized BMW motor-
cycle retailer has a fixed scale
of charges based on work times
and carefully calculated hourly
rates. Fuel, lubricants and simi-
lar substances, filters, gaskets
etc. are charged separately.
