Motorcycle was delivered with a defective airbox. As vehicle temperature and ambient temperature got hotter, the throttle would stick. The hotter it got, the worse it stuck. This would result in loss of engine braking and unintended acceleration. On the third day I rode it the throttle stuck at 3,000 RPM in heavy traffic and I almost rear-ended the car in front of me as a result. I rode the rest of the way home with the engine stuck at 3,000 RPM. Bmw has a service bulletin #13 003 07(056) that deals with this - they knew the bike was likely to be defective before they delivered it. When I called to complain they immediately took the bike in and replaced the airbox and engine operating software per the bulletin. The bike was unsafe to ride as delivered and they knew it.
