The 2014 BMW R 1200 GS Adventure has 3 recalls, the most serious being a front fork tube that can pull free from its mounting in the upper triple clamp, causing a sudden loss of handling and steering stability.
A separate fuel system recall covers the possibility of the fuel pump cracking and leaking gasoline while the motorcycle is running, which can result in a fire if the fuel contacts an ignition source. The third recall affects bikes equipped with the optional aluminum luggage cases: the rear reflex reflectors can be partially blocked by the cases, making the motorcycle less visible to drivers behind it, particularly at night or in low light.
