Check the Brake Fluid Level: Check the level of the brake fluid in the reservoirs and top off
to the maximum fill line with DOT 4 brake fluid. You should plan on changing the brake fluid at
least once each year, regardless of mileage. BMW specifies that when changing brake fluid or
flushing the system the front (but not the rear) caliper pistons need to be recessed fully back
into their bores. This is so fluid is forced out of the caliper cylinders and stale fluid is not
trapped in the calipers. BMW specifies a special tool to retract the pistons. If you are careful
not to damage the pads, you can retract the pistons with tapered wedges which should be left
in place during the flushing operation to hold the pistons in the retracted position. Despite the
fact that there are bleed nipples on the ABS system under the fuel tank, my Repair Manual
only calls for bleeding the entire system at the wheel caliper bleed nipples.
Renew the Spark Plugs: The spark plugs should be replaced at the Major Service interval.
OTHER COMMENTS:
During both a major or minor service you should take the opportunity to thoroughly inspect
your motorcycle. When you have the fuel tank removed, for example, is an excellent
opportunity to examine electrical connections for signs of corrosion or wear, and to examine
other parts and pieces hidden beneath the tank or behind the body work. Look for loose or
worn fasteners. Get to know exactly what the various components are supposed to look like.
Be systematic. Use good tools. Allow plenty of time - several hours at least - and go slowly
and carefully. Do not get in over your headand if you do, consult your dealer or some other
person experienced with R1100 maintenance.
