Equipment

When you ordered your BMW

motorcycle, you chose various

items of custom equipment.

This Rider's Manual describes

optional extras (OE) offered by

BMW and selected optional ac-

cessories (OA). This explains why

the manual may also contain de-

scriptions of equipment which

you have not ordered. Please

note, too, that your motorcycle

might not be exactly as illus-

trated in this manual on account

of country-specific differences.

If your BMW was supplied with

equipment not described in

this Rider's Manual, you will

find these features described in

separate manuals.

Technical data

All dimensions, weights and

power ratings stated in the

Rider's Manual are quoted to the

standards and comply with the

tolerance requirements of the

Deutsches Institut für Normung

e.V. (DIN). Versions for individual

countries may differ.

Actuality

The high safety and quality

standards of BMW motorcycles

are maintained by constant

development work on designs,

equipment and accessories.

Because of this, your motorcycle

may differ from the information

supplied in the Rider's Manual.

Nor can BMW Motorrad entirely

rule out errors and omissions.

We hope you will appreciate that

no claims can be entertained on

the basis of the data, illustrations

or descriptions in this manual.
