Ducati recalls Supersport and Supersport S motorcycles

Ducati North America is recalling 1,462 model year 2017-2018 Ducati Supersport and Supersport S motorcycles.

The Airbox blow-by and fuel tank overfill hoses may be routed too close to the exhaust manifold, which may cause the hoses to melt.

If the hoses melt, fuel could leak, increasing the risk of a fire.

What to do

Ducati will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the hose routing and correct as necessary, free of charge.

The recall is expected to begin August 11, 2018.

Owners may contact Ducati customer service at 1-888-391-5446.
