REAR VIEW MIRRORS EXCESSIVELY VIBRATE UNDER MODERATE TO HARD ACCELERATION, MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ANYTHING BEHIND RIDER.

Oct 04, 2017

BOTH REAR VIEW MIRRORS VIBRATE EXCESSIVELY WHILE IN MOTION RENDERING THEM UNUSABLE. UNABLE TO DETERMINE DISTANCE OR SPEED OF SURROUNDING VEHICLES WHILE IN MOTION. IMAGES IN THE MIRROR ARE A COMPLETE BLUR.

WHILE RIDING THE MOTORCYCLE THE TWO REAR VIEW MIRRORS VIBRATE TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT YOU CANNOT SEE WHAT IS BEHIND YOU. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF HAVING REAR VIEW MIRRORS. I HAVE CONTACTED DUCATI NORTH AMERICA ABOUT THIS AND THEY WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM. IF YOU READ ALL 161 POSTS ON THE DUCATI SUPERSPORT FORUM YOU CAN SEE THAT IT IS A WIDE-SPREAD ISSUE INVOLVING THIS MODEL: HTTP://WWW.DUCATISUPERSPORT939.NET/FORUM/129-APPEARANCE-MODIFICATIONS/2714-MIRROR-VIBRATIONS.HTML

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

1 complaint

The fuel gauge has gone bad multiple times. Some times the fuel gauge will go to zero with fuel still in it or it will stick at half tank when it is less than that. My local Ducati service center has replace the fuel gauge 3 times now and the bike only has 3500 miles on it. Talking to the service manager he says this is a known issue but Ducati will not fix it. This is an issue will all the models not just the super sport. I talked to a regional service rep last summer and he said it is because of the type of fuel used in the US. They why doesn't Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha, etc have the same issue?
