Rear wheel flange cracks

Anyone know if the 1150gs bikes are part of this recall? http://www.visordown.com/motorcycle-news--general-news/bmw-recalls-over-300000-bikes/26384.html

As far as I can tell it's the 1200 that has the issue with where the wheel bolts on to. The 1150 design was the same throughout it's production and was well proven on the 1100 too.

Fear not, the 1150 is fine

I couldn't have put it better myself

Yep, have a look at the way the 11/1150's mount the wheel and then the 12's and you will se why there may be a concern with the latter...

1st pic is an 1150 and the 2nd and 3rd pics are 1200's... Its part no 2 on the 2nd pic that is the concern... Either by overstressing the disc mounts or the wheel mount...
