1. Determine if the battery needs replacement or just a charge. Turn the motorcycle on to run, remove the seat, and check with a voltmeter if the voltage at the battery goes to 14 volts. 14 volts because it is a 14 volt charging system; a little below 14 is ok. Record value and shut off the bike.

2. Wait about 10 to 20 minutes and check the battery voltage again. it should not be below 12 volts, if so, change the battery.

3. Remove the black (-) wire first and then the red (+). There will be some sparks but not to serious.

4. pull the battery out and place a new, CHARGED, battery back in and reverse the above proceedure.

Yes, as long as you get the right battery so that it is an identical fit. Either get a BMW battery, or an Interstate MPT-H6. You will have to plug one of the vents on the interstate battery, and use the vent hose from your original BMW battery.

BMW's have auto-locks a little different from other cars, if your battery is dead, the doors won't open. To change the battery, you need to open the trunk, this is where the battery is located. You will see a panel with some screws, you need to remove that and underneath is the battery.
