2005–2006 BMW HP2 Enduro recall: suspension
⚠️ What's wrong
BMW is recalling 365 my 2005-2006 HP2 Enduro motorcycles. The front threaded fastener of the paralever link may not have been tightened to correct specifications. If the fastener was not tightened according to specifications, it could loosen. Over time, it is possible for the fastener to separate from its housing. If this were to occur, then the final drive of the motorcycle would not be properly supported.
💥 The risk
If that happened, motorcycle handling would be compromised increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will remove the front threaded fastener of the paralever link and replace it with an improved fastener. The recall began on january 7, 2009. Owners may contact BMW at 1-800-831-1117.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
