The 2008 Ducati Desmosedici RR has 3 recalls, with two involving fire risks: mispositioned fuel hose clamps can allow fuel to leak near ignition sources, and insufficient clearance between the seat tail guard and the exhaust system can also lead to a fire.
The third recall involves the main wiring harness, which may be routed too close to the frame and can chafe against it in multiple spots, potentially causing lighting to fail or engine performance to degrade.
