The fire hazard should be warned with newly laid hoses.

Because the drainage hoses for the tank and airbox were routed so that they open too close to the manifold of the front cylinder, these lines can melt and ignite. Ignition of escaping fuel vapors is also possible. So far, three cases are known in which there was a fire.

Ducati will recall all owners of such models with their motorcycles to the authorized workshops. The two hoses will be re-laid there. Ducati Germany puts the duration of the workshop visit at one hour. The recall campaign starts on July 2nd, 2018.
