BMW Motorcycle Recall: Tire Deflation Hazard
BMW is recalling 144 MY 2006 R1200 GS and R1200 GS Adventure motorcycles. The tire inflation valve hole in the rim of the cross-spoke wheel, which is equipped with the optional tire pressure monitoring system (TPM), was incorrectly manufactured. A leak may develop at this location possibly causing sudden deflation of the tire. If this happened, motorcycle handling and control would be compromised, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will temporarily deactivate the TPM system, remove the corresponding valves and integral TPM sensors, and then replace them with standard valves. When a permanent repair is available, owners will be notified to bring their vehicles in for reactivation of the TPM system and replacement of the integral TPM sensors and valves. The recall is expected to begin during early January 2007.

BMW Motorcycle Recall: Crash Hazard
BMW is recalling 700 MY 2006 R1200 HP2 and MY 2007 R1200S motorcycles. During assembly, the final-drive assembly O-ring may not have been installed correctly. A leak may occur at the location of this O-ring which is near the rear brake disc. If a leak were to occur, oil could come into contact with the rear brake disc, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will install a new O-ring in the final-drive assembly. The recall is expected to begin during November 2006.
