NHTSA Recall No. 07V466000 BMW K1200R Sport.

Model years: 2005-07 Number of units affected: 510 Problem: On certain motorcycles, during long periods of sustained riding at high engine rpm, vibration within the front-brake fluid reservoir can cause the fluid to foam. This could allow air to enter the front-brake system, which could lead to a loss of braking capability, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will bleed the front brakes and install a damper weight in the brake fluid reservoir. This weight will dampen possible vibrations that can cause foaming of the brake fluid.Owners not receiving this free remedy may contact BMW at 800/831 -1117.

Remedy: Dealers will install a battery mounting bracket and two double-lock velcro strips on the bottom of the battery. Owners not receiving this free remedy may contact Ducati at 408/253-0499.
