BMW is recalling about 370 model year 2008 F650 GS motorcycles because of a possible problem with the front brake disc fastener. The problem could allow the fastener to work loose from its threads, which could cause a crash.
Dealers will remove the brake disc fasteners and replace them when the recall begins this month.
Owners may contact BMW at 1-800-831-1117.
Consumers may contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153) or at www.safercar.gov.
