If I understand my mechanic and the article it is a service bulletin meaning your dealer will install the vent on the GS/GSA bikes when in for service. Don’t go in for service no idea how it works.
My new 2022 R1250RT assembled on 1/28/22 has the drilled hole and one way rubber valve installed. Checked with a RS owner on this forum who’s bike was built the same week and his has the hole and valve.
On the MOA forum I learned the valve is called a “duck bill valve”.
Despite this valve I’m still having my drive shaft pulled on the RT and lubed at the 12,000 mile service just to be sure it is lubed properly.
