# Service bulletins for the 2016 BMW S 1000 XR

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.

41 bulletins from NHTSA, as of 2026-10-19.

- [B611305](/bulletins/10249027.md), 2024-02-01, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. The electrical system of BMW vehicles has been subject to an ongoing development process over the last few years. This has led to increased demands being placed on the battery. This document covers important information for the dealer on how to handle “discharged battery” complaints.
- [MC340223](/bulletins/10242928.md), 2023-10-01, Service bulletin: WHEELS. Front and rear wheel speed sensor faults \(0x3A1800 and 0x3A1801\) appear after the bike is being revvedover 5000 RPM while still on the side stand, sometimes in conjunction with the side stand fault 0X3A1331. When the engine is revved up while on the side stand, vibrations are sent through the entire motorcycle.This vibration intensity varies from bike to bike. This vibration can cause particular movement between the wheel speed sensor and the sensor ringsdepending on the position of the sensor to the ring. The movement is picked up as rotation speed and iscalled âÂÂghost speedâÂÂ. This âÂÂghost speedâ follows the increase in RPMâ™s. 5000 RPM = approx. 12 MPH 10000 RPM = approx. 31 MPH

BMW Motorrad has ascertained that the engine installed in the affected vehicles may have a burr present in the guide bore for the oil supply of the timing chain. The burr can dislodge over time due to vibrations and oil pressure fluctuations \(incl. temperature influences\). This can cause a narrowing or restriction of an oil duct or oil spray nozzle. A lack of lubrication \(e.g. the timing chain\) or insufficient cooling \(e.g. the piston\) can be the result.
