Bmw K1200GT in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Bmw K1200GT is named on 7 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/2010/008: BMW Motorrad R1200ST, K1200GT, R1200GT and 3 more (Front brake pipes may leak)
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
フロントブレーキディスク固定ボルトとホイール回転センサーの配線との隙間が狭いため、当該配線がフロントブレーキディスク固定ボルト頭部に接触することがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該配線が損傷し、ABS警告灯が点灯するおそれがある。What is to be done about it
全車両、当該配線の取り回しを変更する。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.

This site gathered the record, grouped it by notification number and set it in English around the ministry's own words; the notice itself is unaltered. CarsMultiverse is not the ministry and not a safety authority. To act on this notice, use the ministry's own document.
BMW elsewhere in this register

The same part: ABS
1 notices in this register name ABS. A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.
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 335 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2008.
