Brake fluid
Checking brake-fluid
level, front brakes
A low fluid level in the
brake reservoir can allow air
to penetrate the brake system.
This significantly reduces braking
efficiency.
Check the brake-fluid level at
regular intervals.
Make sure the ground is level
and firm and hold the motor-
cycle upright.
Move the handlebars to the
straight-ahead position.
Check the brake fluid level in
front reservoir 1.
The brake fluid level in the
brake fluid reservoir drops
as the brake pads wear.

quickly as possible by a spe-
cialist workshop, preferably
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
