BMW C600 Sport, C650GT: Brakes
Affects BMW C600 Sport, C650GT · 2012–2015 — about 198 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain motorcycles, the front brake hose could fatigue and crack due to tight left turning manoeuvres. The outer protective covering of the brake hose may kink due to excessive bending stress, causing the outer jacket of the brake line to crack, potentially resulting in a brake fluid leak. If brake fluid leakage occurs, the maximum front brake pressure may not be able to be applied. This would also increase stopping distances and could affect braking control, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the front brake hose with one of an improved design.
