Possible material defects in the forged blank of the alternator rotor can lead to weak points in the finished component. As a result, the rotor can break under high loads and damage the engine housing / generator cover. Any oil leaking out can lead to a fall. So far, however, no accidents related to this problem are known.
No US machines in customer hands
The models affected by the US recall were manufactured between July 3 and July 30, 2020. As Ducati USA emphasizes that all potentially affected machines are still with the dealers and will be upgraded with a new rotor if necessary before delivery. Replacing the components should take just under two hours.

According to information from Ducati North America, the affected rotors from the supplier Mitsuba have the serial numbers 280620, 290620, 300620, 010720 and 020720.
When MOTORRAD asked Ducati in Italy, it was announced that the recall applies worldwide and a total of around 900 machines are affected. Most of them are still at the dealerships or in the warehouse at Ducati. In the case of machines that have already been delivered, Ducati will write to the owners of the affected motorcycles. Ducati Germany announces that 282 machines in this country are affected by this recall, which started on August 11th, 2020.
