Reports submitted to NHTSA, shown in the owner's own words
THE REAR BRAKE REPEATEDLY FAILS PRESUMABLY DUE TO AIR IN THE SYSTEM. I HAVE HAD THE BRAKE BLED 6 TIMES NOW SINCE SEPTEMBER 2010 (4 TIMES BY THE SERVICE DEALER). ONCE THE BRAKE IS BLED IT FAILS AGAIN AFTER APPROXIMATELY 200 MILES. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND NETHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER HAVE PROVIDED ME A SOLUTION. *TR
ENGINE STALLING ISSUES WHILE IN MOTION. THIS PROBLEM IS SINCE JULY 2010. THE MANUFACTURER RELEASED A COUPLE OF ENGINE MAPPING UPDATES WHICH DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I CURRENTLY HAVE THE LATEST ECU MAPPING ON THE MOTORCYCLE, BUT STILL HAVE ISSUES. *TR
I HAVE HAD TWO EPISODES OF THE MOTORCYCLE STALLING ON A 2010 DUCATI MULTISTRADA WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THIS HAD BEEN REPORTED BY SOME MOTORCYCLE MAGAZINE TESTERS AS WELL. *TR
