Ｂｍｗ K1200S, K1200R, K1200Gt, K1200Rs. Published by MLIT as 1213830 on 22 February 2007. Part: 潤滑装置.
What the notice says 原動機のオイルタンクの構造が不適切なため、外気温が氷点下以下の気候条件下でエンジンの始動・停止を伴う短距離・低速の運転を繰り返した場合、ブローバーガスに含まれる水分がブリーザーパイプ開口部で凍結することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、オイルタンクの内圧が上昇してタンクが破損し、最悪の場合、漏れたオイルが後輪に付着し、車両が転倒するおそれがある。

Ｂｍｗ K1200S in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Ｂｍｗ K1200S is named on 10 Canadian notices and 3 British. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
The Canadian register
The British register
- DVSA recall RM/2008/049: BMW Motorrad R1200R, K1200S and K1200GT (Brake discs may become insecure)
- DVSA recall RM/2008/032: BMW Motorrad K1200S, F800ST, R1200R and 3 more (Steering damper may become defective)
- DVSA recall RM/2012/024: BMW Motorrad K1200S, K1200R and K1200 Sport (Front brake efficiency may be reduced)
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

What the ministry says is wrong
原動機のオイルタンクの構造が不適切なため、外気温が氷点下以下の気候条件下でエンジンの始動・停止を伴う短距離・低速の運転を繰り返した場合、ブローバーガスに含まれる水分がブリーザーパイプ開口部で凍結することがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、オイルタンクの内圧が上昇してタンクが破損し、最悪の場合、漏れたオイルが後輪に付着し、車両が転倒するおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、エンジンオイルタンクキャップを圧力制御弁内蔵の対策品に交換する。The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

Reading this against the source
This page is what MLIT published in the recall notices it publishes, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /japan, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Japanese recalls on a BMW: 409 in the register, and 371 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2007.
