BMW R1200GS - Rear shock failure + Fork Recall Update: Having had my BMW R1200GS for four largely trouble free years, I was gutted to discover my rear ESA suspension unit had completely failed. UPDATE 6th Feb: Just to let you know the dealer has been in contact with me tonight and has offered to fit a free replacement shock to my bike so that I get a new warrantied unit, rather than a second hand one. UPDATE 12th Feb: I have today had a warrantied shock from BMW fitted to my bike at the dealer at no cost to me. My thanks to the dealer for publicly admitting that this shouldn't have happened, and doing their best to put things right. As far as I'm concerned this issue is now closed.
