The 2018 Ducati Hypermotard has 2 recalls, both concerning the same brake defect: the friction material on the rear brake pads can separate from the backing plate, reducing stopping power and extending braking distances.
When the pad material detaches, the rear brake loses effectiveness, which can make it harder to stop the motorcycle in time to avoid a crash.
