Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic:antilock
Manufactured:
05/17/2004 - 04/28/2005
Affected:
331
Defect:
On certain motorcycles, there could be a problem with the routing of the integral anti-lock-brake system (iabs) sensor cable if service has been performed on the motorcycle, for example, a front tire change.
Consequence:
The sensor cable can come into contact with, and rub against, the front brake disk. if the chafing becomes severe, it is possible to lose the abs function increasing the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Dealers will inspect and attach an additional retaining clip to the iabs sensor cable free of charge. the recall began september 23, 2005. owners may contact bmw at 1-800-831-1117.

Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic:antilock
Manufactured:
11/30/2004 - 12/30/2005
Affected:

Defect:
On certain motorcycles, under rapid, repeated, and unusually harsh braking, loss of abs capability could temporarily occur.
Consequence:
Temporary loss of abs braking could increase the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Dealers will add a physical restriction, in the form of a banjo bolt with a flow restrictor to the brake line, and on certain models dealers will install new front brake discs of a slightly larger thickness free of charge. the recall began on june 5, 2006, and will be a phased mailing through october 2006. owners may contact bmw at 1-800-831-1117.

Campaign:
07V066000 on 02/22/2007
Component:
Engine and engine cooling
Manufactured:
03/31/2003 - 01/30/2007
Affected:
6,631
Defect:
On certain motorcycles, frequent short trips particularly during cold temperatures, can cause water to accumulate in the oil tank, and when the engine is running, escaping water vapor can condense on the oil tank air bleed valve. in freezing temperatures, this water could freeze and block the air bleed valve.
Consequence:
It is possible that a pressure build up in the oil tank could cause it to rupture, allowing oil to leak onto the rear tire. an oil leak could cause a fire. oil on the rear tire could cause loss of control.
Correction:
Dealers will install a new oil tank cap containing a valve to prevent overpressure in the tank free of charge. the recall began on april 10, 2007. owners may contact bmw at 1-800-831-1117.

Defect:
Bmw is recalling certain model year 2005-2011 motorcycles. the bearings could be subject to corrosion. this could lead to reduced movement of the link lever.
Consequence:

Correction:
Bmw will notify owners and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge. the safety recall is expected to begin during march 2011. owners may contact bmw at 1-800-525-7417.
