Ducati 749 Engine problems by year

Vehicle stalls ftrquently when at idle, when slowing and/or stopping. *Tr

There is a recall campaign for year 2004 of my bike, ducati st4s, recall # 05v221000 re. Air box breather hose in contact w/ the horizontal exhaust pipe resulting in possible fire. My bike is the same model but year 2003. In the choices menu my bike was not listed so I entered the first one on the list, the 749, but this complaint is for the st4s. My breather hose is in contact with the exhaust and has melted/caught fire so year 2003 (and possibly earlier) should be included in this recall. I caught it and luckily the damage is only on the hose. Thank you for your attention.

I wish to lodge a complaint against ducati motorcycles based on a recent experience I had with my 2004 ducati 749 dark. The motorcycle only had approximately 650 miles on it when I experienced a failure from the oil crank case, resulting in oil being discharged in the path of my rear tire, as well as to the entire motor, presenting a very hazardous situation. I originally suspected the problem to be based on an oil cooler that was recalled back in august despite my motorcycle being purchased last month...
