NHTSA Complaint #11462999 — 2015 BMW F800 GT

This motorcycle and several other models and production years in this series using this engine are not equipped with an oil pressure sensor nor a low/no oil pressure indicator in the instrument panel. While in operation, a low/no oil pressure condition could cause engine seizure, leading to rear wheel lockup, resulting in a skid and potential crash. Not having a low/no oil pressure indicator increases the likelihood of a crash as the condition could be present without warning the operator to take appropriate action. If having an oil pressure indicator is not a current regulatory requirement for motorcycles powered by combustion engines, request consideration of making it a requirement.
