    R1200GS Safety Warning

    Found this on Visordown.com -

    http://www.visordown.com/motorcyclen...ning/5147.html

    Although if you have one of these BMW will have been in touch already, yes??

    It's not a case of whether we can fix it or not - it's more a case of how fixed would you like it?

    VD non-story shocker!

    Checking the guard isn't fouling the brake lever is point no 1 on the list to check when getting ABS errors on the GS models, not just the 1200.

    It's been known for years.

    Thats is KTM gloves off.The Bavarian BEASTY will triumph. I will summon up all the Beemmer help on the site and crush then tow away the Austrian clutch failing, overheating, carb iceing, stone seat, uneconomical,twitchy, limited tyre sized, plastic, round the world failing, Tenere lookalike.
