I too just got a call about the recall. I'm in Austin TX, so it looks like some US bikes are affected too. Just bought my 2015 SkRs last Tuesday, and I got the call today. They don't have the part in stock, but he said he could get one overnighted and get the bike back to me by tomorrow.

mines one of them- dealer is collecting the bike to do it (90miles or so away!)

Seems they have changed their minds. Mine was done with the 12k service

Got this off the yank site if it helps?..............I picked up my bike. She so damn smooth now.

Nope, I showed up with a modded S1kRR (HP rearsets, etc...). The dealership still replaced the shifter arm. No questions asked.

For folks that want recall details:

BMW defect code: 00 23 11 00 00

FRU number: 2341329

New part number to be installed: 23418548394 Gearbox shift lever.

Current lever has a manufacturing defect that causes various issues. Take above info and go to your dealership folks. Be safe!

I phoned about the 2nd service and asked if my bike needed the recall, yes was the answer but the gear levers on back order. 2nd service due mid July so hopefully get it done then and the cornering abs software which is ?357 plus fitting giving a total of roughly ?400 plus ?180 for the service. Better get saving !

Just had my gear crank lever replaced at the 2nd service.

Just phoned dealer and yes mine 'needs it' I find it hard to believe that for a tuppeny bit and a ten min job they can't post it? It's not as if big end bolts are falling out lol. 3hr round trip + tank of fuel ....
