2020 BMW K 1600 Gt Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2020 BMW K 1600 GT has 3 recalls, the most serious being a transmission defect where two gears can engage at once, locking the rear wheel and causing a sudden loss of stability.

A separate transmission concern involves the seal on the reverse gear control unit, which can deteriorate and let moisture in, causing the unit to overheat and raising the risk of a fire. On the suspension side, a link strut connecting the rear suspension to the frame can lose structural integrity, allowing the rear of the motorcycle to contact the rear wheel and compromising riding control.
