Electronic immobilizer

The electronic immobilizer
helps protect your BMW
motorcycle from theft, and this
enhanced security is at your
disposal without any need for
you to set parameters or acti-
vate additional systems. The
engine of a motorcycle fitted
with this electronic immobilizer
can be started only with the
keys that belong to the vehi-
cle. You can also have your
authorized BMW motorcycle
retailer bar individual keys, for
example if a key goes missing.
The engine cannot be started
with a key that has been
barred.
