Service bulletin MC3300317

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

In November of 2017 BMW Motorrad updated the rear drive for the K5X model line, as a result longer bolts will be used for the rear brake caliper mounting. Vehicles affected K5x motorcycles produced before and up to 10/31/2017, in the event the rear drive needs replaced or the rear brake caliper is removed and installed.
