3 recalls across 4 model years
The BMW K1600B has 3 recalls covering the 2017–2020 model years, with the most serious being a transmission defect on 2018–2020 models where certain internal parts can allow two gears to engage at once or shed damaged components, causing the rear wheel to lock up suddenly and destabilize the motorcycle.
The 2017 and 2019 model years each have a rear suspension link strut that can fracture and separate from the frame. When that happens, the rear of the motorcycle drops and contacts the rear wheel, which can cause an abrupt loss of stability or steering control.
