2006 DUCATI 749 User Comment / Complaint

The fuel pump flange that holds the fuel pump into the tank on the 2006 ducati multistrada 620 dark has failed on 2 occasions. each time has presented a large fire hazard. the first time the bike has parked unattended in our garage and we returned home to find the whole tank of fuel had drained onto the garage floor. the second occasion was even more worrysome because it started leaking fast while in route home from work . this coated the rear tire with gasoline which was spraying up onto the exhaust. this problem has been mentioned many times on web discussion forums. that shows evidence that the problem with my bike is not an isolated incident. i have been very lucky and cannot trust the saftey of the bike any longer until ducati addresses the problem.
