What owners report

2011-08-03, Fuel System, Other
THE FUEL TANK ON MY 2008 DUCATI MODEL MONSTER S4RS TRICOLORE HAS EXPANDED DUE TO A COMMONLY KNOWN PROBLEM OF ETHANOL FUELS REACTING TO THE MATERIAL WHICH THE TANKS ARE MADE FROM. THE TANK HAS SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDED TO THE POINT WHERE IT NOW IMPEDES THE TURNING OF THE HANDLEBARS AND IS WAVY ALONG THE SIDES WHERE THE KNEES ARE POSITIONED. THE TANK, AS OF YET, DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE LEAKING BUT MANY HAVE HAD LEAKS DEVELOP AND IT CERTAINLY APPEARS TO BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE. *KB
