Issue

Issue:
On certain motorcycles, the link strut that connects the rear suspension to the frame could break. If this happens, the motorcycle can drop suddenly and contact the rear wheel. This could cause a sudden loss of stability or a loss of control.
Note: This recall replaces Transport Canada recall 2022-015.

Safety Risk:
A loss of stability or control could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
BMW Motorrad will contact owners by mail and instruct you to bring your motorcycle to a dealership to replace the rear link strut.
