What owners report
Was riding yesterday and the rear brake does not work at all. The rear brake is non-functional. This been an issue since new and the dealer says this is a known problem but nothing can be done to fix the issue.
HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE BRAKES BLEED TWICE A YEAR SINCE PURCHASING .REAR BRAKE FADES AND IS ALMOST NON EXISTENT, WORSE AS THE BIKE HEATS UP NUMEROUS TIMES HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS NORMAL FOR A DUCATI.I DO NOT FEEL SAFE , AND DREAD THE DAY WHEN I REALLY NEED THEM.
NOT SURE IF THE LAST COMPLAINT WENT THROUGH SO HE I GO AGAIN. MY MOTORCYCLE HAS TWO MANUFACTURED DEFECTS. THE MOTORCYCLE OVERHEATS IN CITY TRAFFIC CAUSING THE MOTORCYCLE TO SHUT OFF BECAUSE THE COMPUTER AND THE MOTORCYCLE ENGINE GET TOO HOT. THIS ALSO CAUSES OTHER ISSUES BECAUSE THE MOTORCYCLE ALWAYS RUNS HOT. THE CLUTCH FLUID CAN BOIL AND SEALS FAIL ON THE CLUTCH SLAVE CYLINDER. MINE WENT AT 6000 MILES LEAKING FLUID CAUSING ME TO HAVE NO ABILITY TO SHIFT THE MOTORCYCLE DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THESE TWO FLAWS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED ON THESE DUCATI MOTORCYCLES. THE PROBLEM IS WELL KNOWN. I HAVE A SCHEDULED REPAIR PROVIDING THE DEALERSHIP AND THE MANUFACTURER DO S
I HAD BEEN RIDING DOWN THE FREEWAY FOR AROUND 50 MIN AND THE MOTORCYCLE HAD BEEN ALL OK. I TRIED TO APPLY THE FRONT BRAKES AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I MANAGED TO SOMEHOW STOP WITHOUT INCIDENT USING THE REAR BRAKE. WHEN I PULLED OVER I FOUND THE FROM BRAKE LINE HAD COMPLETELY FAILED ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE.
