I HAVE A DUCATI MONSTER 796. IT IS APPROXIMATELY 2-3 MONTHS OLD. AFTER THE FIRST 6 WEEKS OF RIDING THE PLASTIC FUEL TANK DEFORMED TO SUCH A DEGREE THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING ONTO THE ENGINE CASING AND THEN TO THE GROUND IN MY PARKING GARAGE. I WAS ADVISED NOT TO RIDE THE BIKE IN FOR REPAIRS BECAUSE THE LEAKING FUEL REPRESENTED A COMBUSTION HAZARD. THE DEFECT POSED A SERIOUS DANGER BOTH TO MYSELF AND OTHER MOTORISTS ON THE ROADS OF NEW YORK STATE. THE PROBLEM HAS YET TO BE RECTIFIED BY DUCATI NORTH AMERICA BUT I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM WILL BE TO FIT AN IDENTICAL FUEL TANK TO THE MOTORCYCLE THAT WILL PRESUMABLY FAIL IN A SIMILAR FASHION TO THE FIRST TANK. *TR
Is 2 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2010 and 2010, roughly 2 a year, which is more than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
