BMW of North America is recalling 5 accessory side bag holders designed for CE 02 motorcycles because the mounting kit contains bolts that are too short to attach securely. These holders (part number 77 49 5 A6B 236) can detach from the motorcycle while in motion. BMW is currently holding all affected inventory at dealerships to replace the bolts with the correct length before they are sold to customers.
If the side bag holder detaches while the motorcycle is being ridden, it can fall into the roadway and become a hazard for other vehicles, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the mounting kit bolts with bolts of the correct length, free of charge.
