2006: “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 .
