first i've heard about it.
this is the second BMW motorrad recall this year. they recalled a handfull of s1000rr and reprogrammed the ecu's of all the bikes for running in period.

Sounds like a defective hose or seal tbh

that size recall is unheard of for motorcycles ain't it!

122,000 is a hell of a recall

At a first guess I'd say non-functioning indicators...


Oh wait you said bikes...
