- The defect
- Ducati North America (Ducati) is recalling certain 2017-2020 Monster 797, Monster 1200, Supersport, 2016-2020 XDiavel, and 2018-2020 Monster 821 motorcycles. Air may permeate the rear brake system.
- What it can cause
- Air in the system may reduce effectiveness of the rear brakes, increasing the distance required to stop and the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will install new rear brake hoses, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on June 28, 2021. Owners may contact Ducati customer service at 1-888-391-5446.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 5,909 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 76% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2016 to 2020, so the oldest vehicles on it were 5 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Ducati vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, hydraulic 10 times before this, most recently in April 2020 as 20V232000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 1 of the 20 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 7 complaints with NHTSA, 6 of them before this campaign was filed. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in June 2017, 3 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 3 other recalls published here: 23V620000 (structure), 21V335000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 21V085000 (structure).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Ducati North America with NHTSA on May 4, 2021 as campaign 21V315000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
