    What purpose does the (ugly) plastic cover on the front wheel serve?

    Good morning, friends, there is a plastic shield mounted from the factory which covers the front wheel disk brakes. I believe this is absent from other BMW scooters and certainly from all bikes. What purpose does this serve and I can it be removed without creating a safety or warranty risk?
