The fuel gauge has gone bad multiple times. Some times the fuel gauge will go to zero with fuel still in it or it will stick at half tank when it is less than that. My local Ducati service center has replace the fuel gauge 3 times now and the bike only has 3500 miles on it. Talking to the service manager he says this is a known issue but Ducati will not fix it. This is an issue will all the models not just the super sport. I talked to a regional service rep last summer and he said it is because of the type of fuel used in the US. They why doesn't Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha, etc have the same issue?
MOTORCYCLE IS EQUIPPED THE DUCATI QUICK SHIFTER (DQS). WHEN DOWNSHIFTING FROM 3RD TO 2ND BIKE WILL OCCASIONALLY, AT LEAST ONCE PER OUTING, POP OUT OF GEAR AND GO INTO A 'FALSE' NEUTRAL. VERY DISCONCERTING ESPECIALLY WHEN GOING INTO A CORNER. HAVE REPEATEDLY COMPLAINED TO MY DEALERSHIP ABOUT THE SITUATION BUT THEY SEEM NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND TO BLAME DRIVER ERROR, ME. I HAVE OVER 27K MILES ON THIS BIKE, I THINK I'D KNOW HOW TO RIDE THIS PARTICULAR BIKE PROPERLY BY NOW.
PURCHASED BIKE NEW IN AUGUST 2018 AND HAS LESS THAN 1K MILES. UNEXPLAINED LEAK HAS DEVELOPED NEAR AIR INTAKE. LEAK IDENTIFIED NEAR THE END OF JANUARY 2020. REAR BRAKE IDENTIFIED TODAY AS COMPLETELY INOPERABLE BUT BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR IS FULL. NO ERROR MESSAGES OR SYSTEM FAILURE ALERTS INCLUDING A MALFUNCTION OF THE ABS SYSTEM WAS CAPTURED BY THE BIKE'S ELECTRONICS. I IDENTIFIED THE REAR BRAKE FAILURE DURING MY PRE-RIDE INSPECTION ON 2/17/2020. HAVE CONTACTED A DUCATI AUTHORIZED DEALER IN MY AREA FOR FURTHER INSPECTION AND RESOLUTION.

REAR VIEW MIRRORS EXCESSIVELY VIBRATE UNDER MODERATE TO HARD ACCELERATION, MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ANYTHING BEHIND RIDER.
BOTH REAR VIEW MIRRORS VIBRATE EXCESSIVELY WHILE IN MOTION RENDERING THEM UNUSABLE. UNABLE TO DETERMINE DISTANCE OR SPEED OF SURROUNDING VEHICLES WHILE IN MOTION. IMAGES IN THE MIRROR ARE A COMPLETE BLUR.
WHILE RIDING THE MOTORCYCLE THE TWO REAR VIEW MIRRORS VIBRATE TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT YOU CANNOT SEE WHAT IS BEHIND YOU. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF HAVING REAR VIEW MIRRORS. I HAVE CONTACTED DUCATI NORTH AMERICA ABOUT THIS AND THEY WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM. IF YOU READ ALL 161 POSTS ON THE DUCATI SUPERSPORT FORUM YOU CAN SEE THAT IT IS A WIDE-SPREAD ISSUE INVOLVING THIS MODEL: HTTP://WWW.DUCATISUPERSPORT939.NET/FORUM/129-APPEARANCE-MODIFICATIONS/2714-MIRROR-VIBRATIONS.HTML
REAR VIEW MIRRORS VIBRATE TOO MUCH TO BE ABLE TO SEE TRAFFIC BEHIND CLEARLY WHEN RIDING.
