The headlight on the motorcycle is not fit for night riding. The factory setting provides an OK low beam, however, the high beam is pointed at the clouds. Adjusting the light to bring the high beam down to an acceptable level points the low beam so low that you can only see 10 feet in front of you. The options are driving blind or blinding others; neither is safe.

The contact owns a 2025 BMW R 1300 GS Adventure. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 65 MPH on the highway in congestive traffic with the adaptive cruise control activated. The contact then stated that the motorcycle abruptly slow down as an unknown warning message appeared on the instrument panel. The contact stated that the edge of a vehicle may have possibly entered his lane prior which may have triggered the abrupt slow down; however, the contact was uncertain if that were the case. A fellow motorist alerted to the contact after the failure that the brake lights did not appear when the vehicle made an abrupt slowdown. The contact activated his SOS warning lights to alert the authorities that he was in need of assistance. The police arrived at the scene where they placed orange cones around the motorcycle as the motorcycle was later towed to the contact's home. The dealer nor the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 9,000.
