Details
During the course of quality analysis, it was determined by BMW Motorrad that in the production period from February
2018 to end of June 2018, cross-spoked wheels with reduced spoke tension have been produced.
Vehicles affected
In order to determine if a specific vehicle is affected by this Technical Campaign, it will be necessary to verify all VIN’s
through AIR (Aftersales Information Research). Based on the response of the system, either proceed with the repair
or take no further action. Please note, VIN’s in DCS Vehicle History Check may not appear until 24-72 hours after the
release of this bulletin, therefore AIR is the recommended method for determining open campaigns.
Production Solution
As of 06/03/2018 (R1200-models), 06/23/2018 (R nineT-models) vehicles are delivered in which the cross-spoked wheels
have been produced with correct tension.
Service Solution
For the affected vehicles, the cross-spoked wheels are to be reworked before delivery or at the next workshop visit.
This service action should be performed for those vehicles, in which the cross-spoked wheel had been previously reworked
or replaced.
NOTICE
Create a TSARA case if there are missing spokes or other noticeable problems in the cross spoke wheel.
NOTICE
Extremely dirty wheels must be cleaned before reworking. Additional worktime can be billed by specifying the reason.
Special tool
A special tool kit is now offered for reworking cross spoke wheels. This tool kit makes retightening the spoke
nipple easier.
The description of reworking in combination with the tool kit can be found in the attached repair manual
00 60 190.
