I got the courtesy call from my local dealer to confirm I am taking my bike to their dealer he told there is a kit he has to order and than call me back to schedule an appointment and get the parts changed

Stw

Is there a VIN range that this recall applies too??

This recall on the list appears to be a new one I haven't seen mentioned, the swingarm pivot shaft:

I did not get a letter. I took my bike in for its first 600 mile service and they told me I had recalls on my bike.

Gt6Racer

No letter either, dealer did them all at first service today.

Trident

My recall work and first service is scheduled for this coming Thursday. First service fee came in at $237.xx + 7% NC state sales tax. I thought that was somewhat reasonable.

Gt6Racer

Mine would have been 246$ but it was included in the sale terms. ��

I have just had a little chuckle on a cool cloudy Sunday morning reading the link above and some of the comments from life's flappers and worriers!
I have to admit that I don't call any of the recalls so far to date worrying or important in terms of danger. They have all been addressed and fixed. Reading some of the waffle on the other forum and the hate towards Ducati just makes me chuckle even more!

I love my Tric nearly as much as my 1 week old daughter but I can't get excited over these minor issue recalls.

I had a first release Honda CBR 600 in 1987. That has some major issues the first being weak welds on the side stand causing the bike to fall over and bust the left hand side fairing and the other major major issue for me was when my girlfriend at the time handed me the rear grab rail as we were heading down the M5 towards Devon!!!

Happy riding brothers and sisters
