Safety Risk: An oil leak near the rear tire could affect handling and control of the motorcycle. This could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, oil that leaks onto hot components could create a fire risk. Corrective Actions: BMW Motorrad will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a dealership to replace the clutch cover bolts.
