BMW R 1300 Gs Recalls

2 recalls across 2 model years

Summary

The BMW R 1300 GS has 2 recalls across the 2024-2025 model years, with the more serious being a starter motor relay defect on 2024 models where an incorrectly manufactured relay housing can cause the relay to overheat and start a fire.

On 2025 models equipped with the optional emergency call system, a software programming error can leave the system deactivated without the rider's knowledge, meaning a crash may not automatically alert first responders or transmit the bike's location.
