Fuel tank distortion on my 06 ducati s2r.
2006 Ducati Monster S4 R fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 12 of 12, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Vehicle: 2006ducati monster s2r 1000(not listed in the following list). Within the past 6 months, the stock plastic tank on my motorcycle is expanding and deforming. The tank no longer sits correctly on the frame, the handle bars hit the tank preventing full range of motion. Also the hold-down latch is pressed against the ignition switch preventing proper removal to access the under tank components, battery, air filter. I have not modified my motorcycle, nor it's fuel system or fuel pump, located inside the tank. I took my bike to an authorized dealer who submitted a claim to ducati north america, and was denied a replacement. No reason was given. I have this documented on a service receipt. I am concerned about the safety of the bike. Not only does the handle bars prevent proper turning radius, but the lock can no longer engage. Furthermore, the fuel pump flange is located directly above an exhaust header, should the warpage break the seal around the pump flange, gasoline would land on the hot pipe.
