4 recalls across 1 model year
The Ducati 1199 Superleggera has 4 recalls, all affecting the 2014 model year, with the most serious being a clutch damper plate that can fatigue and break, causing the rear wheel to lock up suddenly and the rider to lose control.
The same damper plate failure can also stall the engine without locking the wheel, leaving the rider without power in traffic. The rear shock absorber on 2014 models can have a damper rod nut that loosens over time, causing the shock to lose damping ability or disassemble entirely, which degrades handling and raises the risk of losing control. There is also an engine oil issue where oil can migrate from the crankcase pressure system into the airbox and leak near the rear tire, reducing traction at the rear wheel.
