BMW Motorrad serviceBMW Motorrad service
qualityBMW Motorrad stands not only
for good handling and a high
degree of reliability, but also for
an excellent quality of service.
To ensure that your BMW is
always in optimum condition,
we recommend that you have
the regular maintenance work
required for your motorcycle
carried out, preferably by your
authorised BMW motorcycle
dealer. For generous treatment
of claims submitted after the
warranty period has expired,
evidence of regular mainte-
nance is essential.
Certain signs of wear, moreo-
ver, may otherwise not be
noticed until it is too late to put
them right at moderate cost. Your authorised BMW motorcy-
cle dealer knows every detail of
your motorcycle and can take
remedial action if necessary
before minor faults develop into
serious problems. By having the
necessary repairs done prop-
erly and in good time, you save
time and money in the long run.
