Sooooo, BMW gave me a call and told me that my GSA has to go in to have some parts replaced as part of the recall on a potential front brake issue. Apparently it has something to do with the brake line that may start sweating fluid and eventually impair braking. Currently the only thing sweating on my bike is me, but I'll take it in anyways Very Happy

Phoned Bavarian East and they don't have stock of the replacement parts, so I'll 'sweat it out' for another 2000km until the 30k service is due.

Anyone else affected?

PS. I still love the way that BMW keeps looking after you with stuff like this cheers
