| I have to say that i'm 100% behind Twinfan on this one. Break failure on a motorbike can be catastrophic, and can result in loss of life. Sure Brembo and Ducati don't want to risk any bad press with an admission that they have (accidently) used faulty parts, but what about the individual? All this stuff about the onus being on the rider to check every component on the bike before riding it, is laughable, and i'm sure, pretty bloody annoying to read for Twinfan. My bike was less than 1 year old, when my brakes seized, I had no warning, I don't have a team of technicians to strip the bike down everytime I ride it. I use my bike everyday, so for sure, it's been out in the rain, by hey, it was designed for this. Ducati replaced the parts on my bike as a gesture of good will, but I have been in agony with a trapped nerve since the accident, that DEFINITELY wasn't my fault, although I do admit to not stripping and rebuilding the bike before I took it out - so my fault then I guess? |
