The ducati 1198 and previous models were recalled due to faulty mounting of voltage regulator (it requires additional heat shielding). I never received rcl-08-005 (nhtsa number 08v-638). I was driving home at night and the headlights, dash lights, and all other marker lights went out. I was struck from side by a driver who did not see me, but left the scene of the accident immediately. I was unable to catch the driver and my leg was crushed between the car and my motorcycle. Ducati is unwilling to perform any repairs on my vehicle, the dealer is unaware of the recall and ducati s.P.A. Stated clearly that they would not repair my vehicle, even though it is dangerous to drive. Rcl-08-005 makes clear that owners are in danger should they experience this failure, exactly the failure i experienced. Given that my model is included in the recall, i fully expect ducati to repair my vehicle at their cost and pay damages and medical expenses experienced as a result of this known manufacturer's defect. *tr

Brakes: rear brake master cylinder was previously replaced in 2011, rear brakes malfunctioned once again jan 2011...Rear brake lines were bled to rule out air trapped in the brake line, only to discover brake fluid leaking from the rubber tube which feeds into the top of the brake master...In addition, the rubber grommet that seats into the rear master free-rotates in place. Ducati dealership will be replacing the rear master a second time under warranty, but i fear the cause is not being addressed! Lighting: front headlights have water condensation built up inside the headlights, causing limited visibility during night time. Ducatiusa declined replacing it under warranty, but the dealership was glad to offer to replace headlights at msrp+labor costs. The bike has otherwise been pleasure to own and ride. *tt
