Environmental protection
Development…
Motorcyclists have an intensive
relationship with nature. BMW
has made sure that they con-
tinue to enjoy the best possible
prospects for successful riding
in the future.
For instance, your new Boxer is
available with exhaust emission
control by closed-loop, three-
way catalytic converter.
…waste disposal…
Behind the scenes, in the repair
workshop, we don’t neglect the
pro-environmental aspects of
our work either.
Wherever possible, we use
environmentally acceptable
materials that can be broken
down by biological methods.
…recycling
Apart from the correct disposal
of materials that are potentially
hazardous to the environment,
recycling is being given
increasing priority by BMW.
For example,plastics are indi-
vidually marked so that they can
be returned to the materials
cycle. Remember: when it
comes to making repairs to
your motorcycle, the authorized
BMW motorcycle workshop is
far better equipped to protect
the environment than you are at
home!
