    figured they would have learned from the bad rear brakes on the 2010 models... hmmmmm
    Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
    Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
    Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

    Seems like there's a bunch of other Ducati recall articles linked from that page.

    OK... so I went and looked at the page and at least it's not the same rear brake problem I had w/ my 2010. Mine was a rear brake assembly. This one is for improper adhesives used by Brembo.

    Good reminder to keep on top of your bike and make sure if you have any recalls; get them taken care of.
