My ti muffler has cracked badly as well. Sounds like there may be a design problem.

i was advised against getting a titanium system by a ducati dealer as they were not strong enough for road use. ok for just track but not up to the rigours of our roads.

Guys,

Is this the Termignoni 57mil system?

I've just ordered one through Ducati for my R

Any info gratefully received.

Mine has cracked in the identical location, must be a design problem.
