Owner report 11605778 · 2024-08-01 (August 1, 2024)
From the day I bought the V4 it stalled and started developing DTC Errors. My bike was in the shop for 3 months before Ducati replaces the BBS ECU and fixed the issue. Since there have been multiple reports of stalling and DTC errors. These are dangerous as the bike stalles while slowing and could affect engine breaking or Stopping. This issue should be investigated and corrected. It is likely the BBS units have faulty components causing the DTC error and fueling issues.
