ST3 Recall
 

I've been told that there is a recall for the 04 models to replace the ECU and exhaust valve springs to improve smooth engine running.

They have exhaust valve springs?

Yep - only lightweight but they're there :)

True, helper springs they are really.

Recall ST3; sort of
 

Well it's not a recall, its a service bulletin.
I have an American bulletin that says to replace "closing rocker arm return spring" and the ECU with new partnumbers.

It's valid for bikes with VIN# under 4B003609.
Seem to me that it goes for European Bikes as well.
My girlsfriends bike has 4B002213 so I'm going to ask my dealer to replace the items.

Greetings, Jean

Will give them a call & see what they (Ducati Bristol) say.

JUst sent an e mail to Duncan, the service manager to get his opinion.

Will post it when I get a reply.
