Safety risk
BMW Motorrad cannot examine or test
each product of outside origin to en-
sure that it can be used on or in con-
nection with BMW motorcycles without
constituting a safety hazard. Nor is this
guarantee provided when the official
approval of a specific country has been
granted. Tests conducted by these in-
stances cannot make provision for all
operating conditions experienced by
BMW motorcycles and, consequently,
they are not sufficient in some circum-
stances.
Use only parts and accessories approved
by BMW for your motorcycle.
The safety, function and suitability of the
parts and accessory products have been
thoroughly tested by BMW. Therefore, BMW
assumes responsibility for these products.
BMW shall not be held liable for unapproved
parts and accessory products of any kind.
Comply with the legal requirements for any
modifications. Consult the road traffic li-
censing regulations of your country.
