Loose swingarm bolt !!!

Good evening everyone,

After a short ride this afternoon the rear suspension felt weird. Attached is a picture of my swingarm pivot bolt (for lack of Italian tech word).

Torque is 100Nm (just spoke with the dealer).

3800KM on the bike with a dealer inspection at 1000-1500.

Picture is worth ...

Glad I stopped

Thanks from Nicok

checking that is part of the current recall -is your bike in the recall range?

Up here in Quebec I haven't received a recall notice for this and for the brake reservoir bolt or steering damper.

... My dealer was clueless

I guess all Ducatis are prototypes and not really production items
