BMW Motorrad R1200rt: Check Suspension Strut Replace If Necessary

BMW is recalling 38 motorcycles (R1200RT, K1600GTL, and K1600B models) because a manufacturing defect may cause the proportional valve in the suspension strut to loosen over time, which could reduce the suspension's damping function. Owners of affected vehicles should have their suspension strut checked and replaced if necessary.
