THE GAS TANK HAS DEFORMED CAUSING FITMENT ISSUES AND IS LEAKING GAS.
2016-09-06, Unknown Or Other
FUEL TANK LEAK DUE TO TANK DISTORTING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME REPLACING TANK. DUCATI NEVER FIXED THIS PROBLEM. THE PLASTIC TANKS CANNOT HANDEL THE ETHANOL GAS IN THE US.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 DUCATI MONSTER S2R 1000. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE LEAKED FUEL ONTO THE ENGINE INTERMITTENTLY AFTER IT HAD BEEN DRIVEN 45 MPH AND THEN PARKED. THE VEHICLE HAS A FIRE PROTECTION PAD. WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS REPLACED, THE DEALER REMOVED THE PAD TO GIVE THE TANK MORE ROOM TO EXPAND. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16,381.
2015-01-20, Fuel/Propulsion System
FUEL TANK KEEPS EXPANDING. DUCATI REPLACED TANK 2 TIMES BUT WITH THE SAME MATERIAL OR SAME TYPE . TANK SWELLING MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE TO GET UNDER THE TANK FOR MAINTENANCE OR ACCESS TO BATTERY . TANK ALSO DOESN'T FIT PROPERLY TO FRAME . DEALER WANTS TO SALE K100 FUEL ADDITIVE FOR ETHANOL PROBLEM TO PREVENT PLASTIC SWELLING . I TRIED BUT PROBLEM PERSISTS . NO IMPROVED TANK IS OFFERED . I OWN A SECOND BIKE WITH SAME PROBLEM . THANK YOU *TR

THE ENGINE CASE HAS 2 SEVERE CRACKED IN THE PLACE WHERE THE FRAME MOUNTS TO THE ENGINE. THIS IS COMMON WITH THE S2R AND ST3 BECAUSE OF A DESIGN FLAW IN FRAME DESIGN ADDING INCREASED PRESSURE TO THAT PART OF THE ENGINE CASE. *TR
