Superbike maker Ducati markets a number of motorcycle models in India. Media reports state that a recall has been ordered for a number of two motorcycles sold by the company. We'll discuss what kind of defect warranted the recall.

Ducati has conducted a recall of a number of units of two motorcycles. The recall was said to have been made for about 393 units. They are the Ducati Panigale V4 and Streetfighter V4.

According to reports, a recall has been issued for 393 units of both models due to rear axle failure. This recall has been issued worldwide, including India. These units were manufactured between 2018 and 2024.

In 2023, an incident occurred with a Ducati motorcycle in which the rear axle broke while riding. However, the wheel did not detach from the motorcycle in this accident. Consequently, this recall has been issued worldwide. According to reports, approximately 10,000 units have been recalled in the US and approximately 7,000 units in Germany.

The company will examine the units involved and replace the rear axle components in the units as required. The company will not pay any extra charges for this.

All owners of these two Ducati bikes in India are being informed by the company through phone and email. They will then need to take their motorcycle to the nearest service center, where it will be tested and the part replaced.
