BMW Motorrad has made technical updates to the transmission on the air- liquid-cooled boxer models. As with the R 1200 GS Adventure (K51), all air-liquid cooled boxer models received a shock damper on the transmission output shaft as of July 2016. At the same time, a reworked control actuation, transmission shafts, as well as their bearings have been used. This results in a slightly longer installation length for the new transmission.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2016/MC-10146805-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2016/MC-10146805-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10146805","components":[{"id":"powertrain","name":"Transmission and driveline","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"BMW","model":"M ROADSTER","year_from":null,"year_to":null,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
