Details

What's wrong:

Why it matters: If the linkage detaches from the swingarm, catastrophic suspension collapse would occur and adversely affect the ability to safely handle the motorcycle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Ducati will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace, as necessary, the incorrect screw free of charge. The safety recall began on June 30, 2012.
