BMW HP2 ENDURO Maintenance Instructions Manual page 5

Maintenance in-
structions for sporty
off-roading
These maintenance instruc-
tions were compiled for riders
who want to leave metalled
roads and use their motor-
cycles for sporty off-roading.
Before you go off-roading,
BMW Motorrad recommends
installing the accessories
supplied with the motorcycle.
In this way you can effectively
protect parts of the motor-
cycle that could otherwise be
at risk.
These maintenance instruc-
tions describe the proced-
ures for installing the off-road
accessories and the proced-
ure for removing the number-
plate carrier and the mirrors.
Use the headlight guard
only when off-roading.
Riding on public roads with
the headlight guard fitted to
the motorcycle is prohibited.
Sporty off-roading inevitably
increases wear and tear on
the motorcycle, so extra
checks and maintenance
work over and above those
described in the Rider's
Manual are necessary. They
too are described in this
publication.
All the work described in
these Maintenance Instruc-
tions is supplementary to the
standard maintenance work
described in the "Service"
section of the Rider's Manual.
Please bear in mind that if the
motorcycle is used for sporty
off-roading, you must comply
with these additional mainten-
ance instructions in order to
keep the motorcycle in good
running order.
Some of the work calls for
special tools and a thorough
knowledge of motorcycles.
If you are in doubt consult a
specialist workshop, prefer-
ably your authorised BMW
Motorrad dealer.
Damage not attended
to in good time or inad-
equately repaired can result in
consequential damage to the
motorcycle.
Consult a specialist work-
shop, preferably an author-
ised BMW Motorrad dealer,
as soon as possible if you
discover that the motorcycle
is damaged.
