Read complaints for BMW R SERIES (2005)


While waiting at a red light in traffic on a highway, i pulled in the clutch, put the bike into gear and the bike made a loud, metallic grinding sound.this failure only happened once in the time i have owned this motorcycle (2 1/2 months); however, it was a catastrophic failure of the drivetrain that left my bike unable to travel under its own power and stranded me in the middle of heavy, fast moving traffic. (this happened on the west side highway in manhattan.) for my personal safety and to prevent my disabled motorcycle from causing an accident,i had to push the bike to the side of the road through gaps in traffic.the repair required a full clutch replacement and replacement of the input shaft to the transmission (withrelated seals and shims.)

Crack in the fuel pump controller housing resulting in minor fuel leak.

The contact owns a 2005 bmw r-1200. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds and trying to downshift the rear of the vehicle would lift upward. The failure caused the front brakes to unlock and the front wheel making it difficult to stop. The vehicle was inspected by a dealer who informed the contact that he needed to replace the anti-hop clutch for the front brakes. The vehicle was repaired for the fatcat anti-hop clutch. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000. The vin was unavailable.
