What is BMW doing about servicing, repairs, warranty and service packs impacted by Coronavirus?

BMW is committed to supporting customers affected by the closure of our retailers during the coronavirus restrictions.
Customers requiring urgent vehicle maintenance should ask their local BMW Motorrad centre about the availability of their service centre. Some service centres continue to offer service and repair for essential workers.
Customers requiring a vehicle service during the delays caused by Coronavirus can rest assured that your warranty will be unaffected by this disruption. Motorcycles serviced within 3 months or 1,000 miles (whichever is earlier) of the service indicator will be protected in full by any applicable warranty.
For customers with a warranty expiry during the Coronavirus restrictions (from 14th March 2020 onwards), we will extend your warranty coverage, including Roadside Assistance cover, until 30th June 2020. End of warranty checks due during this period will also be fulfilled. Customers in self-isolation beyond 30th June should contact a BMW Centre to arrange for collection and delivery.
BMW will honour Service Inclusive packages expiring between 14th March and 30th June for any overdue work. We will honour any service due under a service package that has expired during the Coronavirus closures.
For any BMW motorcycle that is due a 600 mile running-in service during this period we have extended the mileage allowance to 1,200 miles (2,000km).

Clearly urgent deliveries of BMW service items, such as switch gear, gearboxes, final drives and head gaskets, have been critically impacted.

Be interested to know how you deduce that from the statement.

I’ve been wondering the same thing about Ducati, my bike was due it’s annual service at the end of March, it also needs a couple of recalls and bits done under warranty which the service centre said wouldn’t be possible for when I had it originally booked in, but said Ducati are being quite understanding in terms of not voiding warranties because of later servicing.
The bike is nowhere near needing a service based on mileage anyway, just time.

I called my dealer - Honda are being very helpful & will honour warranties even if servicing is several months out. The bloke wasn't that specific, but I've dealt with them for years & can't see it being a problem
