2012 BMW K 1600 GTL Power Train Problems

Motorcycle has 45000miles and the transmission started to stutter in 4th gear, the symptoms match the recalled transmission for 2017 bmw k1600. This is very dangerous and in 4th gear the vehicle is traveling at around 50mph, when applying throttle the whole bike bucks and becomes unstable

EXCESSIVE DRIVELINE BACKLASH THROUGH GEAR BOX OR DRIVESHAFT. RESULT, I NEARLY CRASHED ON THE MOTORWAY AT A LOWER SPEED WHEN MANAGING THE BIKE ON AN OFF THE THROTTLE. THE SUSPENSION GETS UNBALANCED WITH THE KANGAROOING OF THE BIKE BACK AND FORWARD WHEN IN GEAR AND GOING FROM A POWER TO ENGINE BREAKING VICE VERSA SITUATION. I HAVE BEEN RIDING FOR 20 YEARS AND THIS IS THE MOST DANGEROUS DRIVELINE I HAVE EVERY FELT AND DID NOT AT ALL FEEL SAFE RIDING IT. EXPERIENCE BMW MOTORCYCLES IN AUCKLAND SOLD THE BIKE BUT STILL MAINTAIN ITS NORMAL!! GO FIGURE. TOOK THE BIKE TO THE MOTOR VEHICLE DISPUTE TRIBUNAL AND WITH AN INDEPENDENT TEST RIDE THEY DEEMED THE BIKE TO BE NOT OF ACCEPTABLE QUALITY AND NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE. APPARENTLY THEY ARE ALL LIKE THIS?? BMW ARE SETTING THEMSELVES UP FOR A LAW SUIT HERE. *TR

HAD A BAD OIL LEAK FROM THE TRANSMISSION ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE BIKE. NEW TRANSMISSION WAS INSTALLED BY BMW DEALER. BAD OIL AND COOLANT FLUID LEAK FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE MOTORCYCLE. NEW PUMP WAS INSTALLED. THE BIKE WAS OUT OF SERVICE AT THE DEALER FOR 2.5 MONTHS TO FIX IT. *TR
