What This Recall Means

Component

STRUCTURE:MOTORCYCLE:KICKSTAND/CENTER STAND

What Happened
The side-stand attachment bolts in your motorcycle are the small metal rods that hold the kickstand in place. In some 2012-2013 S 1000 RR models, these bolts can start to loosen over time.
Risk if Unfixed
If the side-stand bolts come loose, your motorcycle could fall off the stand, which could cause a serious injury if you're nearby.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your BMW dealer will clean the threads and replace the side-stand mounting plate bolts for you, at no cost. This is a free repair, so schedule it when you get the recall notice.
