Ducati’s 1098 is being recalled over two separate problems, the firm said today, Monday, May 14, 2007.
A statement issued by the firm said: “There are currently two safety recalls for the 1098 which are being dealt with under usual Department of Transport guidelines. The first recall concerns the cam belt pulley tensioners which were found to not be within specified tolerances during the early production of the bike. The second recall is for the fuel pipe clips which are checked for proper installation. In both cases the number of bikes affected is very small.” <a href="http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/newsresults/mcn/2007/May/may15-20/may1407ducati1098recall/" target="_blank">motorcyclenews.com</a>

I am not a Ducati owner but my best friend was and had purchased the 1098 in early March of 07. Three weeks later he was killed in a crash riding this bike. From what we understand is that the bike stalled while he was leaning into a right turn and caused him to go into oncoming traffic killing him. I just heard of this recall and was curious if anyone else has had a similar result but not ending so horrific. 3: Posted July 20, 2008, 1:49 am by k749s

I received my ECU recall letter on Fri 3/7/08. I called Ducati Service(Houston EXIMPORT) and they said that I could bring the bike in anytime but would have to leave it with them for 3 weeks! The service guy said that they have to take the ECU out and send it to California....Anyone else get a story like this?
