What's wrong: The right and left swingarm shaft pivots can loosen.

Why it matters: The swingarm shaft pivots can loosen from the swingarm which can lead to loss of control of the motorcycle, increasing the risk of personal injury.

The fix: Ducati will notify owners, and authorized dealers will tighten the right and left swingarm shaft pivots to the proper torque settings, free of charge. The safety recall began on October 15, 2012.
