The problem
ON CERTAIN MOTORCYCLES, THE FASTENERS FROM THE FUEL LINE TO THE FUEL FILLER WERE NOT TIGHTENED PROPERLY. THE FUEL PUMP HOSE INSIDE THE FUEL TANK MAY SEPARATE FROM THE FUEL FILTER. THIS CONDITION WILL STOP THE ENGINE FROM RUNNING.
Risk
IF THE ENGINE STOPPED WHILE THE MOTORCYCLE WAS BEING DRIVEN, IT COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.
What owners should do
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP TO FUEL FILTER HOSE AND FASTENERS TO PREVENT THE ENGINE FROM STOPPING. THE RECALL BEGAN ON FEBRUARY 21, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT DUCATI AT 1-800-424-9153.
