This is old news though, isn't it? I know when I took mine back for a tank swap a month ago they had already recalled some and stopped production on new ones.
Checked with the dealer, no problem with mine, they knew about it and it was a bad batch. They have done my throttle grip, sidestand bolt, and need the panniers to mod the lower mount.
Not sure, but was told it was a recall. Search indicates throttle bodies and cables may cause inability to fully close the throttle
Only a few 2016 models affected and owners should have had a mail or letter from Ducati, check your frame number with your dealer, there is a throttle recall and a mod on paniers if fitted
Yep - checked with my dealership today - Riders in Bristol - the Multi is now booked in for both of those issues but not affected by the tank issue. The suggestion seemed to be that it may not be affected by those issues either - apparently there are a small number of bikes with specific parts that are affected. Its in the range of affected bikes to they want it in to check if it has either of the parts involved and will replace the parts if it has.
Sent an e-mail to my Dealer ( Leeds ) ohh and yes my Multi requires 2 of the notices to be addressed....why oh why does it always take a customer contacting their dealer to be told there are potential issues!...makes my blood boil!...apparently my dealer said Ducati are rectifying them in batches!!!!!
So if your bike falls over due to sidestand bolt failure, panniers go bouncing down the motorway , or you hurt yourself because you cant shut the throttle I would suggest Ducati would be in pretty big trouble. All it would take is an email to its customers , or , as I was told by a mate , well you knew about it anyway so it was up to you to get it sorted. :Jawdrop::Jawdrop:
Italia Moto replied saying my bike was not affected by that recall, for info my pikes peak DVT was registered in March 2016.
