I recently received a safety recall notification from BMW which reads in part:
..."BMW AG has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain Model year 2005-2011 BMW R1200, K1200/1300/1600, S1000RR and HP2 motorcycles. Our records indicate that you are the owner of a potentially affected motorcycle."
..."We are informing you of a safety recall on your motorcycle although we are not able to perform the remedy at this time. We will notify you with a follow-up letter as soon as the remedy is available."
..." Motorcycles which had the fuel pump repaired (but not replaced) during safety recall 13V-617 with a support ring attached to the fuel pump flange could, over time, experience a fuel leak. A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a fire."

Well, I don't know if my MC had the recall 13V-617 performed, as I am not the original owner. I don't smell any fuel, so I guess I'm OK until I can have this checked out after the remedy is available.
FYI...
