This recall involves the fuel pump, and also the auxiliary fuel pump as applicable.  The affected motorcycles have a fuel pump flange that may crack, possibly resulting in a fuel leak while the engine is running.","mfr_campaign":null,"units":16926,"do_not_drive":false,"park_outside":false,"notification":null,"match":"exact","models":["K1200 R","K1200 R SPORT"],"built_from":null,"built_to":null,"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/nhtsa/20V471000"},{"source":"tc","country":"ca","campaign":"2010395","date":"2010-11-03","manufacturer":null,"component":"Suspension","summary":"On certain motorcycles, due to environmental conditions, the bearings of the link lever attached to the rear strut could be subject to corrosion.  This could lead to reduced movement of the link lever.  Over time, if the corrosion became significant, restriction of movement of the link lever could occur.  This could affect handling of the motorcycle.  In an extreme case, this could result in the connecting rod breaking by a bending force, causing the rear wheel to decelerate by contact with the inner fender.  This could lead to a crash depending on traffic, road conditions and rider's reactions.  Correction: Dealers will replace the rear suspension relay lever.","mfr_campaign":null,"units":1496,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Recalls Audit","match":"exact","models":["K1200R"],"built_from":null,"built_to":null,"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2010395"},{"source":"nhtsa","country":"us","campaign":"10V488000","date":"2010-10-08","manufacturer":"BMW OF NORTH AMERICA, LLC","component":"SUSPENSION:REAR","summary":"BMW IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2005-2011 MOTORCYCLES.

The water vapour produced while the engine is running condenses at the outlet port of the dry-sump oil tank breather.  If temperatures are below 0 degrees Celsius, the condensation can freeze and plug the breather line of the oil tank.  As a result, oil tank over-pressurization can cause the tank to rupture, allowing oil to escape onto the rear wheel and create the risk of a crash causing injuries or death.
