Details

What's wrong: The pivot pin that connects the final drive to the swing arm may be damaged, causing the connection between the final drive and swing arm to loosen.

Why it matters: A loose connection between the final drive and swing arm will reduce stability and control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will replace the pivot pin, free of charge. The motorcycles are not with owners at this time. The recall began April 28, 2020. Please contact BMW customer service number 1-800-525-7417.
