- Some Motorcycles were considerate affected by technical campaign 0011460000, requiring replacement of the cylinder head. The spare parts kit provided for the campaign was pre-assembled. Due to an insufficient repair instruction for workshops of the BMW Motorrad dealer network, it is possible that the three threaded caps for the rocker arm axes will not be tightened with the required torque. In the event of insufficient tightening, oil could leak at the fixing points, increasing the risk of an accident.
