Went on my first ride. Zero rear braking action. ABS error light on.

2017-01-25, Fuel/Propulsion System
MY MOTORCYCLE HAS A FAULTY FUEL SENSOR WHICH HAS BEEN REPLACED A TOTAL OF THREE TIMES A TWO YEAR PERIOD AND IS BROKEN AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER IS ADVISING ME THIS IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND IGNORING THE CLEAR POOR QUALITY AND/OR DESIGN OF THIS PART WHICH HAS REQUIRED SO MANY REPLACEMENTS IN SUCH A SHORT TIME PERIOD. THEY ARE RELYING ON THE FACT THAT MOTORCYCLE RIDERS ARE MOSTLY RECREATIONAL AND WILL NOT NOTICE PROBLEMS ON PARTS THAT LAST JUST SHORT OF THEIR YEAR WARRANTY FOR PARTS.

THE REAR MASTER CYLINDER WAS REPLACED DURING A SERVICE BULLETIN NOTICE. THE BRAKE WOULD FADE THEN FAIL. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES EVEN AFTER THE BRAKE FLUID WAS REPLACED AT THE DEALER. THE BRAKE WOULD WORK PROPERLY FOR A FEW HUNDRED MILES, FADE, THEN FAIL. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION AND AFFECTS VIRTUALLY ALL DUCATI MULTI STRADA MOTORCYCLES MANUFACTURED FROM 2011-2014. THE MOTORCYCLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND A PERMANENT FIX IMPLEMENTED.

THE REAR BRAKE WILL FADE UNTIL IT IS COMPLETE UNUSABLE. THEN IT GETS REBLED AND WORKS FOR A DAY OR TWO AND THEN IS UNUSABLE AGAIN. DUCATI SENT OUT A SERVICE BULLETIN AND MY DEALERSHIP INSTALLED NEW PARTS PER THE SERVICE BULLETIN, BUT THE REAR BRAKES HAVE FAILED AGAIN! THEY ARE DANGEROUS! I HAVE QUIT USING THE REAR BRAKE BECAUSE I KNOW I CAN'T COUNT ON IT, AND THAT IS WORRISOME TOO. *TR

REAR BRAKES HAVE FAILED FOUR TIMES. THEY HAVE FAILED THREE TIMES AFTER THE LAST RECALL. THE BRAKE FLUID IN THE RESERVOIR HEATS UP BECAUSE OF ITS LOCATION NEAR THE EXHAUST PIPE AND CHEMICALLY BREAKS DOWN CAUSING FADING AND FAILURE OF THE BRAKE. THIS IS A WIDELY KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE MOTORCYCLES. ACCORDING TO DUCATI SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES, DUCATI KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT DOES NOT THINK THE REAR BRAKE IS NECESSARY FOR STOPPING THEREFORE, THEY HAVE NOT PROPERLY ADDRESSED THE SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
