What the hazard is
An oil leak may affect the rear tyre. If this occurs it will result in a reduction in traction for the wheel and increase the risk of an accident resulting in injury or death to the rider and/or passenger or other road users.
What to do
Consumers will be contacted by BMW Group Australia or a BMW Motorrad dealer. Consumers can contact an authorised BMW Motorrad Service centre, or call the BMW Group Interaction Centre on 1800 813 299 to arrange for inspection and repair.

Defect
The screw plug in the rocker arm was not sufficiently tightened during manufacturing. As a result, oil may leak from the affected bolting points.
