VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
CRUISE CONTROL SAFETY FEATURES DO NOT WORK AS REQUIRED. WHEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THE CLUTCH IS OPERATED TO DOWNSHIFT, THE CRUISE CONTROL REMAINS ENGAGED. THIS CAUSES THE ENGINE TO RACE AND, IF RIDER THEN RELEASES THE CLUTCH, IT CAN PROPEL MOTORCYCLE FORWARD IN A DANGEROUS AND UNCONTROLLED MANNER. THIS HAS OCCURRED TWICE, ONCE AT 70 MPH AND A SECOND TIME AT 45 MPH. BOTH TIMES I WAS INITIATING A DOWNSHIFT.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
I WAS TRAVELING IN ON A STRAIGHT PORTION OF PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY IN HUNTINGTON BEACH. THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC AROUND AND NO DEBRIS IN THE ROAD. I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH WHEN THE HANDLEBAR ON MY MOTORCYCLE VIOLENTLY JERKED TO THE LEFT FOR A SPLIT SECOND AND CORRECTED ITSELF. THIS WAS NOT NORMAL AND VERY DANGEROUS. I LOOKED AT THE HANDLEBAR AND NOTICED THAT IT WASN'T STRAIGHT OR SQUARE TO THE DIRECTION I WAS TRAVELING. A SECOND AFTER SEEING THE HANDLE BAR THE BIKE JERKED TO THE LEFT AGAIN, THIS TIME CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL AND CRASH. IT WAS OBVIOUS TO ME THAT SOMETHING VERY UNUSUAL HAPPENED. WHEN I LOOKED AT THE BIKE AFTER THE CRASH I SAW THE FORK WAS SEPARATED (SEE ATTACHED PICTURES). I BEGAN RESEARCHING ABOUT FORK SEPARATION AND BMW 1200 GS MOTORCYCLES AND FOUND THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO.

THE LEFT STANCHION HAS COME LOOSE FROM THE CRIMPED CONNECTION AT THE TOP OF THE UPPER TUBE. I HAVE SEEN MANY OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THIS DESIGN ON OTHER BIKES ON THE SOCIAL MEDIA FORUM I TRACK. GS GIANTS ON FACEBOOK, AND ALSO ON ADVRIDER.COM. I TOOK IT TO THE BMW SHOP TODAY IN TULSA OK. I HAD TO SHOW THEM EXACTLY HOW IT WAS LOOSE. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT WITH THIS BIKE. I DO RIDE IT ON ROUGH GRAVEL ROADS, BUT THE BIKE IS DESIGNED FOR THIS TYPE OF ENVIRONMENT.

FRONT FORKS OR STAUNCHIONS BEGAN TO SEPARATE AT THE TOP WHERE FORKS CONNECT TO HANDLEBARS. MY DEALER, BMW OF DENVER, WAS SERVICING THE BIKE IN FEB 2017 AND INFORMED ME OF THE ISSUE. THE STAUNCHIONS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY OR RISK THEM COMING APART AND POSSIBLY CRASH. BMW DID NOT WARRANTY ALTHOUGH THE BIKE WAS STILL COVERED UNDER THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY. I'M HEARING OF MANY OTHER STORIES OF THESE FORKS COMING APART.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
THE POOR DESIGN OF THE FORK STANCHIONS CAUSES THE FORK TUBE TO SEPARATE FROM THE FORK CAP. OVER TIME, THE FORK CAP WILL WORK ITS WAY OUT OF THE FORK TUBE CAUSING THE FORK TO SEPARATE FROM THE CAP WHERE IT MOUNTS TO THE TRIPLE TREE. AS IT WEARS, THE STEERING BECOMES IMPRECISE. A COMPLETE FAILURE WOULD RESULT IN COMPLETE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE. THE PROBLEM IS WELL DOCUMENTED IN THE FOLLOWING THREAD: HTTP://ADVRIDER.COM/INDEX.PHP?THREADS/BOTH-INNER-FORK-TUBE-BROKEN-AT-FIRST-DAY-OF-RIDE-150-MILLE-OF-USE.1185036/ IN MY CASE, THE DEALER CAUGHT THE ISSUE BEFORE A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE AND REPLACED THE PARTS, BUT I AM CONCERNED AS THE REPLACEMENT PARTS HAVE THE SAME FAULTY DESIGN AND COULD POTENTIALLY FAIL AGAIN.

WHILE RIDING FORK OIL BEGIN TO LEAK OUT OF THE TOP OF THE LEFT FORK. ONCE REMOVING THE RUBBER COVER I NOTICED THAT THE FORK TUBE HAD SEPARATED FROM THE HEAD ENOUGH TO CAUSE LEAKAGE AND LOSS OF OIL. I REMOVED THE RIGHT COVER AS WELL AND NOTICED THE FORKS WERE STARTING TO SEPARATE ALSO. THIS CAUSED PLAY IN MY STEERING AS WELL AS THE END OF MY TRIP. I RETURNED THE BIKE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE FORKS UNDER WARRANTY. THIS WAS AUGUST OF 2016. SINCE THAT TIME I HAVE HEARD OF NUMEROUS ACCOUNTS OF THIS INCIDENT HAPPENING. A FELLOW MOTORCYCLE IS CREATED CLAMPS THAT WOOD CLAMP AROUND THE FORK TUBE TO SECURE IT BETTER AND FOR SAFETY REASONS. I INVESTED THE$140 AND RECEIVED A PAIR OF STANCHION SUPPORT. ON THIS DAY MAY 5TH 2017 I WAS GOING TO PUT THE SUPPORT ON MY 2014 GS AND ONCE I REMOVED THE RUBBER COVERING I NOTICED THAT ONCE AGAIN MY RIGHT FORK IS STARTING TO SEPARATE. THIS IS LESS THAN A YEAR AND LESS THAN 1500 MILES OF MOSTLY HIGHWAY TRAVEL. THIS IS NOW A KNOWN PROBLEM AMONGST THE GS COMMUNITY AND WRITERS OR PURCHASING THE SUPPORT EVERYWHERE. BMW SHOULD REALIZE THAT THERE IS A CHALLENGE HERE. I WILL RETURN MY BIKE TO THE DEALERSHIP IN HOPES OF THEM REPLACING THE FORKS ONCE AGAIN UNDER WARRANTY. THIS REPORT IS ON THE BEHALF OF MY SAFETY AS WELL AS HUNDREDS OR THOUSANDS OF OTHERS THAT MAY EXPERIENCE THIS SAME DEFECT. I HEARD YOU TO TAKE THIS SERIOUS AS AT THIS TIME THERE HAS BEEN NO FATALITIES THAT I KNOW. IN THE PHOTOS THE PHOTO ON THE LEFT IS THE ORIGINAL AUGUST 2016 AND THE RIGHT IS MAY 5TH 2017

AT THE END OF THIS SUMMER I NOTICED MY FRONT STANCHIONS ON MY MOTORCYCLE COMING LOOSE IN AN AREA THAT IS CRIMPED. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALER THEY INFORMED THAT BOTH WERE LOSE AND THAT IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY SAID AS I HAD DROPPED THE MOTORCYCLE IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED. AFTER GETTING THAT RESULT FROM MY DEALER AND BMW I DID MORE RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE. WHILE BMW HAS REFUSED TO REPLACE MINE I FEEL BECAUSE OF THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE, MANY WITHOUT DROPPING THEIR MOTORCYCLE DROPS. IN ONE CASE THE PERSON JUST HAD THEIR FORKS REPLACED AND WITHIN 200 MILES OF OFF ROAD RIDING IT BROKE AGAIN. THERE MAY BE A BIGGER ISSUE. ALSO BECAUSE OF WHERE THIS FAILURE HAPPENS PEOPLES LIVES ARE IN DANGER. YOU CAN READ MORE ABOUT OTHERS EXPERIENCES BY FOLLOWING THESE LINKS.

AFTER FEW KM (16.700) A LOT OF NOISE COMES FROM GEAR BOX. I SEARCH ON THE WEB IF SOMEBODY ELSE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND I FOUND A LOT. MANY CUSTOMER CLAIMS THAT OUT OF WARRANTY THE GEAR FAULT CAUSING SERIOUS NOISE AND IN SOME CASE CRASH AND INJURIES. THE PROBLEM CONSIST IN A FAULT OF THE OF THE SHAFT IN THE GEARBOX THAT CAN CAUSE THE REAR WHEEL LOCKING. IN FACT, THIS MOTORCYCLE HAD A RIGID TRANSMISSION MADE WITH A SHAFT. WHEN THE SHAFT OF THE GEARBOX CRACK, SOME SMALL METAL PARTS CAN SIMPLY LOCK THE TRANSMISSION. BMW WELL KNOW THE PROBLEM DUE TO SEVERAL MAINTENANCE JOB. I'M WRITING FROM ITALY. I KNOW THAT PROBABLY YOU CAN'T DO NOTHING FOR ME, BUT IN ANY CASE, I HAVE A LOT OF FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUE IN US. THIS IS THE REASON WHY I WANT TO REVEAL THIS BIG UNSOLVED PROBLEM WITH BMW.

ENGINE CUTS OUT, WHILE TRAVELING, STALLS COMPLETELY, AS IF THE KILL SWITCH HAS BEEN DEPRESSED/ENGAGED. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS IN THE LAST 2500MILES. THE TWO MOST RECENT TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED PRESENTED A HAZARD TO MYSELF AND TO OTHER ROAD USERS. I HAVE TAKEN THE BIKE TO MY LOCAL BMW DEALER, THEY OPENED A PUMA CASE AS THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, NOR WERE THEY ABLE TO FIND A SOLUTION. I DID CONTACT BMW DIRECTLY WHO TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AND THAT THEY WERE SORRY BUT HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE. THE 1ST TIME THIS HAPPENED I WAS IN 5TH GEAR, TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 58 MPH, THE TEMPERATURE WAS IN THE LOW 50'S FAHRENHEIT, I WAS TRAVELING UP A SLIGHT UPHILL PAVED HIGHWAY ROAD AT AROUND 9PM, WITH A 7-10% GRADIENT, WHEN THE ENGINE COMPLETELY STALLED, LIGHTS STAYED ON, DISPLAY SHOWED "TURN OFF OR CANCEL." I TURNED THE BIKE OFF, THEN BACK ON AND MADE MY WAY HOME. I TOOK THE BIKE TO THE DEALER THE FOLLOWING DAY. THEY RAN A LOAD TEST ON THE BATTERY AND SAID THAT WAS MOST LIKELY THE CAUSE. I REPLACED THE BATTERY WITH A NEW BMW BATTERY. I THEN WENT ON ANOTHER TRIP. THE BIKE STALLED AGAIN, ENGINE DIED OUT COMPLETELY, I WAS LANE SPLITTING ON A VERY LARGE AND BUSY FREEWAY. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE EMERGENCY LANE. I WAS IN 2ND GEAR TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 20-30 MPH WHEN IT DIED. THE TEMPERATURE WAS HIGH 90'S, AROUND 2PM. IT HAPPENED AGAIN IN PHOENIX, I WAS IN 3RD GEAR, LATE AFTERNOON, 105 FAHRENHEIT WHEN THE ENGINE CUT OUT COMPLETELY. THE HIGHWAY CUT OUT AND THE MOST RECENT CUT OUT IN PHOENIX WERE DANGEROUS SCENARIOS AND I FELT THE ENGINE CUTTING OUT WITHOUT WARNING IS A DEFINITE HAZARD TO MYSELF AND TO OTHER ROAD USERS. THERE ARE REPORTS OF OTHER RIDERS HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. BMW DOES NOT CARE, SO I THOUGHT I WOULD REPORT THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION TO THE NHTSA. THANK YOU. *TR

CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED AT 75 MPH U.S. 59N. THE ENGINE BEHAVES AS IF IT SHUTS OFF. I ENGAGE THE CLUTCH AND COAST TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I WAS SURPRISED THAT THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING, WITH A SURGING IDLE FROM 1000-2000 RPMS. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL HAD TWO WARNINGS ILLUMINATED, YELLOW "WARNING" TRIANGLE AND AN ENGINE SYMBOL WHICH BMW DESCRIBES AS "ENGINE IN EMERGENCY-OPERATING MODE". I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE USING THE KEYLESS IGNITION BUTTON. I RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND OPERATION WAS NORMAL. NO WARNINGS WERE ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE BIKE IS RELATIVELY NEW. I OWNED IT ABOUT 6 WEEKS AND HAD ACCUMULATED APPROXIMATELY 700 MILES. SINCE THE BIKE WAS RUNNING NORMAL AND THERE WAS NO NEARBY BMW SERVICE I CONTINUED ON. I COMPLETED MY 10 DAY TRIP ACCUMULATING ANOTHER 4000 MILES WITHOUT ANOTHER OCCURRENCE. ON MY RETURN I TOOK THE BIKE TO MY BMW DEALERSHIP WHERE A DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER WAS CONNECTED. THE READ OUT CONFIRMED THE FAULT AS: 21F982 THROTTLE VALVE 1 MAINTENANCE NOTES: CHECKED THROTTLE VALVE, OK PLUG CONNECTION, OK CLEARED FAULT CODE, DID NOT COME BACK BIKE=OK NO RECOMMENDATIONS I KNOW THERE ARE NUMEROUS INSTANCES SIMILAR TO MY EXPERIENCE. THE BMW OWNERS MANUAL PAGES 30,31 DESCRIBE THIS CONDITION AS AN "ACCIDENT HAZARD". I WAS FORTUNATE THAT TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT AND I HAD A PAVED ROAD SHOULDER ON WHICH TO STOP.

BMW R1200GS 2010 MOTORCYCLE PART ON THROTTLE BODY WHERE THE THROTTLE CABLE ATTACHES TO THE THROTTLE BODY KEEPS ON CRACKING. IT IS A PLASTIC PART WHEN ALL PREVIOUS MODELS WERE METAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES ON MY BIKE SO FAR. THE INDIVIDUAL PART IS NOT AVAILABLE AND YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE TOTAL THROTTLE BODY $546 + $400 LABOR. THERE IS ALSO THE DANGER OF THE THROTTLE JAMMING WHILE IN OPERATION DUE TO THESE CRACKED AND BROKEN LOOSE PARTS. I WAS IN MOTION AND FELT THROTTLE STICK AND THEN RELEASE SEVERAL DIFFERENT TIMES WHILE I WAS IN THE HOV LANE ON THE FREEWAY. I HAVE REPAIR DOCUMENTATION ON FILE FOR ALL 3 REPLACED THROTTLE BODIES BUT DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO SCAN THEM. IF YOU NEED COPIES PLEASE LET ME KNOW AND I WILL GET THEM SCANNED AT KINKOS AND SEND THEM TO YOU. THIS HAPPENED IN MAY AND I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE LACK OF RESPONSE BMW HAS TO THIS ISSUE WHICH IS A MATERIAL DESIGN FLAW THAT COULD END UP HURTING A MOTORCYCLIST IF THE THROTTLE JAMS AT SPEED. I SEE FROM DIFFERENT WEB SITES THAT THIS IS HAPPENING ON DIFFERENT BMW MODELS WITH THE SAME THROTTLE BODY. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN THE MILEAGE IS ABOVE 40,000 MILES. PLEASE KEEP ME INFORMED ON WHAT THE SITUATION IS WITH THIS SINCE I AM WORRIED AND DON'T TRUST MY MOTORCYCLE NOW. I AM AN OLDER RIDER (75YRS) NOT SOME HOT SHOT THAT ABUSES MY MOTORCYCLE. I HAVE BEEN RIDING FOR OVER 45 YEARS AND THIS IS MY 4TH BMW. I DID TALK TO THE BMW REP WHO WAS AT MY LOCAL DEALER BUT TO NO AVAIL. ANY OTHER INFORMATION YOU NEED OR ANYWAY I CAN HELP PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME. I AM CONCERNED FOR RIDERS OUT THERE WITH THIS THROTTLE AND WOULD LIKE IT ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT.
