Example complaints

Brakes: “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.”

NHTSA complaint #10681582, filed 2015-02, 5,000 miles

Fuel 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.”

NHTSA complaint #10947655, filed 2017-01, 14,600 miles

Steering: “While preparing to removing the front wheel from my 2011 Ducati Multistrada 1200st, I noticed the lower portion of right front fork leg that pinches the wheel axle was broken. This concerned me very much as this holds the front wheel axle tight so that it does not come loose. I was preparing to take a three day, 1100 mile trip. …”
