Top box rack recall

[justscootin]

The following is a recall that very few have heard of as of yet
I do not know if it has any effect on sport model. I would contact your dealer at your earliest convenience

Topcase fell off?!!!!

This is on the BMW MOA site
Good luck

I just got off the phone again with one of my local dealers and he was telling me he just got the memo on Friday. The way he originally found out was he had a scooter in for service earlier in the week and it came up on the computer system. This is how all the other scooter riders will know is if they take the scooter in for service it would be corrected. (the key word is IF)

What he also told me is that what is happening is 2 of the 4 bolts are coming loose and the other 2 can't hold the weight. He also told me that if I am going out to the scooter to lift the back end of the rack and give a shake this would tell me if I am in trouble or good shape. He is also going to set up an appointment for me to come in and check it himself. The fix from BMW is still not known to him yet, it may be new bolts and or some lock tight on the bolts we will know soon (maybe)

Just got the notice from BMW, called dealer and will go in Thursday for the fix, what ever that is. Mine seems solid but might as well be proactive.

The fix is a couple of self locking nuts and some lock tight

Just ordered the top box/rack from my dealer. They're selling them again, so I guess the problem has been resolved.
