The 2019 BMW R 1250 GS has 3 recalls, the most serious being a gearbox input shaft that can crack or break under certain riding conditions, locking the rear wheel and causing a sudden loss of control. Two recalls address the brake fluid reservoir cap, which may not clearly label the correct fluid type or filling procedure. If the wrong fluid is used during maintenance, braking performance can degrade and raise the risk of a crash. One of these recalls covers aftermarket reservoir covers sold as accessories, while the other covers the caps fitted to the motorcycle as originally built; both carry the same risk.
