“Front brake pulses at low speed braking causing control problems with motorcycle. The motorcycle was returned to dealer in the fall of 2016 for repair but issue was not fixed. Currently still waiting for weeks for warranty authorization.”
NHTSA complaint #10992104, filed 2017-05, 6,500 miles“The rear brake has become absent. I've had the motorcycle less that 5000 miles and now there's nothing there when i press the brake pedal. The front brake works fine, and that's the one I use mainly. But the rear brake pedal does nothing. I looked online and apparently this is endemic on Ducati motorcycles with Brembo brand rear brakes. Ducati offers no remedy other than paying for a rebuild of the brake assembly at cost. Meanwhile we are riding our bikes with no rear brakes.”
NHTSA complaint #11444073, filed 2021-12“Rear brake goes all the way down without stopping the motorcycle, replaces the brake pads and bleed the system, then the brake works for a few days but always slowly goes down until the brake does NOT work at all. I have to bleed the system again. There are NO leaks int he hydraulic hoses, connections, master and slave cylinders or brake caliper.”
