BMW Motorcycles That Need Attention

In the last six months, we have seen a variety of recalls and service campaigns affecting nearly every recent BMW Motorcycle model. While many of these campaigns address minor aspects of the affected vehicle, others should be dealt with a greater sense of urgency.
Sample of BMW Motorcycle Models Affected By Recalls or Service Campaigns:
  • F650GS - charcoal cannister vent line extension, chain and sprocket replacement
  • F800GS - charcoal cannister vent line extension, chain and sprocket replacement
  • K1200GT - brake line conversion
  • K1300GT - handle bar switch(es) malfunction
  • K1300S - handle bar switch(es) malfunction
  • R1200RT - brake line conversion
  • R1200GS - brake line conversion
  • R1200GS Adventure - brake line conversion
  • S1000RR - new owner's manual, replacing crankcase breather, retrofitting drop sensor
  • G650X - take-up roller bracket for the drive chain, front brake pipe distributor bracket
Grab your VIN (the last 7 digits) and call Mark, Stan, or Tony at 858-633-2481, so that they can run your vehicle history to see if your specific vehicle is affected by any open campaigns. If your bike is not affected, you're in great shape and you can keep on riding. If your bike is affected, they will schedule an appointment for you. Should you prefer email correspondence, just send a short note with your VIN included in the body of the text to service@sdbmwmc.com and we will be more than happy to respond.
Remember, if you have a BMW Motorcycle that won't start and is still within the original factory warranty (36 months/36,000 miles) you can call BMW Roadside Assistance at 877.680.2176 and they will pick up your motorcycle and bring to the nearest BMW Motorcycle dealership for troubleshooting and repair.
