Service bulletins for the 2026 BMW R 1300 RT

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.

10 on file from NHTSA, as of 2026-10-19.

MC7701262026-08-27. Service bulletin. UNKNOWN OR OTHER. The mechanism of the release lever is jammed. When trying to open the case, the release lever does not open after the lock barrel has been pressed.
MC0003252026-01-05. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. During the pre-delivery check (PDI) or when completing the PDI for the vehicle, the wiring harness is installed and secured in the steering head area. Due to an excess length in the harness to the Keyless ride control module, an unintended loop in the cable may form, which can chafe on other components. The maintenance instructions currently published in Aftersales Information Research (AIR) do not explicitly describe the installation.
MC3305242025-09-05. Service bulletin. SUSPENSION; STRUCTURE:BODY. In some R 1300 model motorcycles, it has been detected that the rear wheel swingarm has play in theaxial direction. The mounting of the swingarm to the frame is comparable to the F and S model motorcycles. During the mounting of the swingarm axle, this creates different tensions from motorcycle to motorcycle pulling the frame together. Resulting in little to no axial play allowing axial movement on the swingarm axle.
