The problem

Ducati is recalling certain model year 2012 848, streetfighter, hypermotard, multistrada, and monster motorcycles. The friction material may detach from the backing plate of the rear brake pads.

The risk

If the friction material detaches, there would be a sudden loss of rear brake efficiency, increasing the stopping distance and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Ducati will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace, as necessary, the rear brake pads free of charge. The safety recall began on may 21, 2012. Owners may contact ducati at 1-800-231-6696 or go to their website at www.ducati.com.
