Recently there has been a spate of recalls andBMWhas issued a few of them. This time around, the recall affects only 4 motorcycles. But the issue could be serious. BMW says the pivot pin that connects the final drive to the swing arm may be damaged.

The problem could cause the connection between the final drive and the swing arm to loosen. If the motorcycle has this defect, the loose connection between the swing arm will reduce stability and control. Obviously, this presents an increased risk of a crash.
