BMW F650GS: Other
Affects BMW F650GS · 2006–2007 — about 19 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain motorcycles, a weld between the side stand and the frame bottom section was not positioned properly, and as a consequence, the load-bearing capability of the side stand has been compromised. As a result, under load, the side stand could fail. If this occurred, the motorcycle could fall to the ground and injure a person sitting on the motorcycle or a bystander. Correction: Dealers will replace the frame bottom section.
