3 recalls across 2 model years
The BMW R 1250 R has 3 recalls covering the 2020-2021 model years, with the most serious being a 2020 brake light defect where the light flashes instead of staying steady during emergency braking, which can confuse following drivers and raise the risk of a rear-end collision.
The 2020 model also has a brake fluid reservoir cap that lacks clear labeling for the correct fluid type and filling procedure, meaning improper maintenance could degrade braking performance. On 2021 models, the tire pressure label on the frame can detach, leaving the rider without a ready reference for correct inflation levels.
