    Suspension / Rear

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Bmw is recalling 744 my 2007 g650x challenger and country motorcycles. The motorcycles may have had the wrong circular clip installed on the left hand side of the rear wheel bearing guide. This circlip can rub against a spacer bushing, creating metal shavings which may enter the wheel bearing, causing it to fail and the antilock brake system (ABS) may malfunction. This would be indicated by illumination of the ABS warning lamp.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    If this happened, the brakes would remain fully available to slow and stop the motorcycle. Depending on traffic and road conditions as well as a rider's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will check and install a correct circlip, along with a new spacer bushing, wheel bearings, and shaft sealing rings free of charge. The recall began during april 2008. Owners may contact BMW at 1-800-831-1117.
