1 recall across 1 model year
The BMW R1100RSL has 1 recall affecting the 1994 model year, where running the engine at elevated speed while stationary can cause exhaust system temperatures to rise high enough to ignite the surrounding fairing panels.
If the choke is left engaged longer than needed, the engine stays above idle and heat builds in the exhaust. The plastic fairing components adjacent to that exhaust can reach ignition temperature and catch fire while the motorcycle is parked and running.
