G'day

Read an article in our local newspaper while having coffee in a cafe - re: BM recall. Referred to R1200 all models and K1200 all models for a limited VIN range. Parts mentioned included front discs (increase in thickness, bango bolt (fitted with restrictor) and additional security for ABS wheel sensor wiring.

 

Sorry I cannot be more specific as I did not take full notice of all the details.

 

cheers

BERLIN - BMW said Wednesday it was recalling 90,000 motorcycles after finding a problem with the adjustment of their anti-lock brakes.

 

The BMW Boxer and K models are affected, BMW said. It was not immediately clear where the motorcycles had been sold or whether any accidents prompted the recall.
