The 2019 BMW R 1250 RT has 3 recalls, the most serious involving the gearbox input shaft, which can crack or break under certain riding conditions and cause the rear wheel to lock up suddenly.
Both remaining recalls involve the brake system. The front brake calipers can leak fluid while the motorcycle is parked, and over time that fluid loss can reduce braking power. There is also a labeling issue with the brake fluid reservoir cap, which may not clearly identify the correct fluid type or how to fill it properly, raising the risk that a routine maintenance top-off uses the wrong fluid and degrades brake performance.
