HANDLEBARS

Adjustable handlebars
Have the handlebars adjusted
by a specialist workshop,
preferably an authorised
BMW Motorrad retailer.
When adjusting the
handlebars, make sure
that the mirrors do not
come into contact with the
windscreen.
If necessary, adjust the mirror
arm accordingly.
The tilt of the handlebars is ad-
justable within the range indic-
ated by mark 1.
Additional components
are needed for replacing
the handlebars. Have the
handlebars replaced by a
specialist workshop, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
retailer.
Checking hand protector
If the hand protector is twis-
ted out of position, a lack of
clearance between hand pro-
tector and handlebar lever can
lead to continuous actuation
of the handlebar lever. Clutch
or brake malfunctions are pos-
sible.
