BMW R1200GS Loose Spoke Wheel Recall - RevelatorAlf
BMW R1200GS Loose Spoke Wheel Recall - In this video I discuss the latest news about BMW motorcycles and defective loose spokes on some spoked wheel models that are becoming prematurely loose which has led to BMW issuing a technical service bulletin urging rider owners to get their bikes checked out at a dealership as soon as possible and at the next service interval too. I talk about the different models that are affected and what the causes were in the first instance too.

Thanks for watching this video on the news that some BMW Motorcycles may be suffering from loose spokes and that owners are urged to get their bikes checked out urgently. Please share, subscribe and leave comments.
Since 2018 when I bought my bike I’ve had two complete sets and One front. My mate who bought at the same time also had a set of wheels replaced and simply handed the keys back.It’s had more wheels than tyres. And it’s continued up to now. The Extended Warranty Does Not cover wheel replacement. Replacement of wheels is at BMWs discretion A 20k bike should not have an issue as fundamental as wheel malfunction. I have spoken repeatedly to BMW customer services and they are just not interested. One thing I’ve noted is that if you get the sensation that the centre stand is clonking against the underside of the chassis it’s highly likely that you have multiple loose spikes on the rear wheel.

That’s just awful. Thanks for the update. Cheers
I picked up a 2018 GS with only 2000 miles on it. On the last day of my 6.076 mile round trip journey to and from the MOA Rally in Great Falls I noticed a vibration. My ABS ligth is on, I have a Strut Spring fault as well. I decided to do a thourough post trip cleanup and found several loose spokes. Most on the rear and a few on the front. I put the bike up on the center stand and the runout of the rear wheel revealed that it is now warped. I have spoken to the dealer and set up to bring it in for the issues.

Thanks so much. Glad you liked it and your bike is ok too. Cheers
I just bought a 17 GSA with 10k miles on it off a guy yesterday. Did a big ride today, coming home I started feeling some bad vibrations....checked the rear wheel and I have at least 12 spokes that are suuuper loose! Do you think they will replace the wheel with a secondhand owner?

Hmmm well worth an ask. In principle it shouldn’t matter but will be interesting to note if they do. Best of luck with it
