F650GS Fork Failures
Early F650GS bikes seem to be having a few fork failures. Basically, the lug cast onto the front of the lower fork leg, which mounts the axle, is breaking loose from the fork leg. Adventure Riders are trying to pin down the build date when BMW switched from the old part to the new part. Both parts use the same part number. A few riders are switching to Yamaha forks.
