Early 1200 hexhead GSD models had some handguards that the mounts were prone to failure.
BMW has issued a recall on these, and added a sticker letting the rider know that, from time to time, the fittings needed to be checked.
The main issue was that the handguard came down from the vibrations and the brake or clutch lever/s did not return to the resting position.
This meant that you could ride with either the clutch pulled in(resulting in premature wear) or, even worse, with the front brake applied!

The mounts I produce stay put, as they should!
