WHAT HAPPENED

Ducati Japan has announced a recall affecting six motorcycle models: Panigale V4, Panigale V4 S, Panigale V4 Tricolore, Panigale V4 Tricolore Italia, Streetfighter V4, and Streetfighter V4 S. The recall was registered with the Consumer Affairs Agency of Japan under management number 00000035437 and is based on a defect in the rear brake hose heat shield tube (braking device). The issue may lead to reduced braking performance, posing a safety risk to riders.

This recall is significant because the rear brake system is critical for vehicle stability and control, especially during emergency maneuvers. A compromised heat shield tube could cause the brake hose to overheat or wear prematurely, potentially resulting in brake fluid leakage or hose failure. Owners are urged to take immediate action to ensure their safety and compliance with Japanese regulatory standards.

Affected owners should take the following steps:

• Check if your motorcycle is included by contacting an authorized Ducati dealer or visiting the official recall information site using management number 00000035437.
• Schedule a free inspection and repair at your earliest convenience; the remedy start date is June 19, 2026.
• Do not ride the motorcycle until the repair is completed if you notice any brake performance issues.
