Recently purchased diavel carbon and have had nothing but problems.
Very first ride bike overheats, pull over and check it out, no fluid comming from bike, so I let it sit for about 10 minutes and it cools back down. Ride another 1 or 2 and bike reads "hi" again, did same thing took me about 30 minutes to ride 4 miles.
Call dealer explain to them what is going on, we come to a agreement that bike is probably not overheating but a electronic bug as bike is not puking out fluid or running any different at 150 or 248.
Take it to dealership and bike will not do it again, we try everything and bike runs fine and never gets hot.
I take it home and very next ride it overheats again, take it to the dealership again, which by the way is 180 miles away one way, and they contact Ducati, there fix is to just remove thermostat until perminent fix, ha ha how is that for a $20k bike.
Get bike back home go around block and bike stails out on me, fires right back up but what the hell. Next day have bike on lift and notice the plastic belt cover behind exhaust is melted, really are you serious.
Contact dealer, dealer notifying Ducati.
So here is from a duc owner, it's really not worth it to own one.
They look great but get close and the fit is not very good on a lot of the pieces and the price for what you pay should reflect a lot nicer of a bike.
To date owned 23 bikes, all makes and never had the issues like this brand here.
Thank god bike has a warranty.
Anyone wanna buy a Ducati, I will make you a good deal,

Ducadi's are beautiful and probably perform best on a pedestal in ur living room as art work.??? dam $20k ud think it would be trouble free. the more complicated they make bikes these days the prone they are to problems it seems.
