Dealers replace the rear brake hoses at no cost to the owner.
The 2015 Ducati Monster 1200 has two recalls, both affecting the braking system: the rear brake hose can be damaged by heat and lose braking force, and the front brake master cylinder can fail and cause a complete loss of front braking.
Both issues raise the risk of a crash. The rear brake hose sits close to heat sources and can degrade to the point where rear braking becomes unreliable. The front brake master cylinder, which generates the hydraulic pressure that squeezes the front brake caliper, can fail outright, leaving the rider with no front braking at all.
