Visually inspect rims for de-
fects.
Have damaged rims checked
and, if necessary, replaced by
a specialized workshop, prefer-
ably an authorized BMW Mo-
torrad retailer.
Wheels
Recommended tires
For every size of tire, BMW Mo-
torrad has tested certain makes
and approved those it has found
to be roadworthy. If you use
wheels and tires that have not
been approved, BMW Motorrad
cannot assess their suitability or
provide any guarantee as to their
road safety.
Use only wheels and tires that
BMW Motorrad has approved for
your type of motorcycle.
Extensive information is available
at your authorized BMW Motor-
rad retailer or on the Internet at
www.bmw-motorrad.com.
TPC sticker
OE
The TPC sensors can be
damaged by improper tire
mounting.
Inform the BMW Motorrad retail-
er or the specialized workshop
that the wheel is equipped with a
TPC sensor.
On motorcycles equipped with
TPC, a corresponding sticker is
located on the wheel rim at the
position of the TPC sensor. Dur-
ing a tire change it must be en-
sured that the TPC sensor is not
damaged. Inform the BMW Mo-
torrad retailer or the specialized
workshop of the TPC sensor.
