Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While riding the bike a few days ago, the ABS failure lights came on. I shut the bike off, and restarted to attempt to reset the system. This did not work. Later in the day, when starting the bike up,...the ABS was functioning, for about 15 minutes, then the failure lights again came on and have constantly stayed on since. The bike is a 2002 and has just turned 33,000 miles. I had the brake system flushed about a year ago in hopes it would prevent this from happening, as this is a very common problem on Bmw bikes of this period,...especially the bikes in the k family. …”
