Even fly-remover pads or clean-

ing pads with hard surfaces can

produce scratches.

Soften stubborn dirt and

insects by covering the af-

fected areas with a wet cloth.

Windscreen and headlight

lens plastic

Clean off dirt and insects with a

soft sponge and plenty of water.

Fuel and chemical solvents

attack the material of the

windscreen; the windscreen be-

comes opaque or dull.

Do not use cleaning agents.

Chrome

Use plenty of water and BMW

shampoo to clean chrome, par-

ticularly if it has been exposed to

road salt. Use chrome polish for

additional treatment.

Radiator

Clean the radiator regularly to

prevent overheating of the en-

gine due to inadequate cooling.

For example, use a garden hose

with low water pressure.

Cooling fins can be bent

easily.

Take care not to bend the fins

when cleaning the radiator.

Rubber

Treat rubber components with

water or BMW rubber-care

products.

Using silicone sprays for

the care of rubber seals can

cause damage.

Do not use silicone sprays or

other care products that contain

silicon.

Paint care

Washing the motorcycle regularly

will help counteract the long-term

effects of substances that dam-

age the paint, especially if your

motorcycle is ridden in areas

with high air pollution or natural

sources of dirt, for example tree

resin or pollen.

Remove particularly aggressive

substances immediately, how-

ever, as otherwise the paint can

be affected or become discol-

oured. Substances of this nature

include spilt fuel, oil, grease,

brake fluid and bird droppings.

We recommend BMW vehicle

polish or BMW paint cleaner for

this purpose.

Marks on the paintwork are par-

ticularly easy to see after the

motorcycle has been washed.

Remove stains of this kind im-

mediately, using cleaning-grade

benzene or petroleum spirit on a

clean cloth or ball of cotton wool.
