Checking spokes
with spoked wheel
OE
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its stand.
Draw the handle of a screw-
driver or a similar instrument
across the spokes and listen
to the notes of the individual
spokes.
If the notes vary:
Have the spokes checked by a
specialist workshop, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
Checking tyre tread depth
Your motorcycle's handling
and grip can be impaired
even before the tyres wear to
the minimum tyre tread depth
permitted by law.
Have the tyres changed in good
time before they wear to the
minimum permissible tread
depth.
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and place the motor-
cycle on its stand.
Measure the tyre tread depth
in the main tread grooves with
wear marks.
Wear indicators are built
into the main profile
grooves on each tyre. The tyre
is worn out when the tyre tread
has worn down to the level of
the marks. The locations of the
marks are indicated on the edge
of the tyre, e.g. by the letters TI,
TWI or by an arrow.
If the tyre tread is worn to min-
imum:
Replace tyre or tyres, as applic-
able.
Tyre recommendation
For each size of tyre,
BMW Motorrad tests and
classifies as roadworthy certain
makes. BMW Motorrad cannot
assess the suitability or provide
any guarantee of road safety for
other tyres.
BMW Motorrad recommends
using only tyres tested by
BMW Motorrad.
You can obtain detailed
information from your
authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer or on the Internet at

Effect of wheel size on
chassis and suspension
control systems
Wheel size is very important as a
parameter for the ABS. In partic-

of a vehicle's wheels are pro-
grammed into the control unit
and are fundamental to all cal-
