DUCATI ST2 FRAME FAILURE

Yeh, I think its a known fault due to loose or failed engine mounting
bolts.Should be easy to weld up cos its a steel frame.

Problem was noted in UA and Ducati fitted a new frame under warrantee
something to do with a too small a engine bolt coming loose - I have a 2003
model with no problems. I beleive it is quite obvious when it happens.

The one I know about was an 02 or maybe 03 model I think but I'm not sure .
It was replaced under warrantee and all parts transferred over to the new
frame without cost to the owner

Whilst he rode it in a spirited manner he never pulled wheelies or stoppies

The later year frame has shown no sign of trouble to date

A few where cracked here in Australia near the engine monut (rear) a wrong
sized bolt was the blame, frames where replaced by NFI.
