2006 DUCATI MONSTER S2R800 DARK MOTORCYCLE- FUEL TANK WARPED INEXPLICABLY AT THE FUEL PUMP MOUNTING FLANGE, CAUSING A DANGEROUS FUEL LEAK OVER THE HORIZONTAL CYLINDER HEAD.

TO CORRECT THIS FAILURE, I HAD TO BUY A NEW FUEL TANK AT MY OWN EXPENSE, WHICH WAS $2000 USD. I HAVE KEPT THE OLD TANK. I BELIEVE I SHOULD BE COMPENSATED BY DUCATI FOR THIS …

THIS DUCATI MONSTER S4RS MOTORCYCLE IS ONE OF THE MANY THAT EXPERIENCED DEFORMATION OF THE FUEL TANK AND COMPROMISE OF THE INTERNAL FUEL PUMP OF THE MOTORCYCLE. THE CAUSE OF THE DEFORMATION IS DUE TO INCOMPATIBILITY WITH FUEL ITSELF; VERY POSSIBLY ETHANOL IN PARTICULAR. THIS MOTORCYCLE'S GAS TANK WAS REPLACED LAST NOVEMBER. IT IS ALREADY IN NEED OF ANOTHER NEW TANK. THE COST OF A NEW ONE IS APPROXIMATELY $2500.00. *TR

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
