BMW M 1000 XR and R steering may stiffen suddenly high

Reported 2025-03-27 · Campaign 25V194000 · Model years: 2025

BMW found that some 2024-2025 M 1000 XR and M 1000 R motorcycles may have a loose pin inside the steering damper — the part that helps keep the handlebars steady. If that pin shifts, the steering can suddenly take much more effort to turn than the rider expects. On a motorcycle, an unexpected change like that can mean losing control of the bike. Dealers replace the steering damper at no charge.
