“2001 Bmw K1200LT. Request for investigation into Bmw motorcycle final drive failures the consumer stated when he attempted to bring the motorcycle to a safe stop, he discovered the rear brakes did not work, which forced him to use the front brakes only, which extended his stopping distance. He was able to bring the bike to a safe stop without incident. Upon inspection, he realized the rear brakes failed because they were saturated in gear oil, that leaked from the final drive unit after the final drive bearing seal failed. …”
