Flywheel on my 996R worked loose. Very nasty noise, clunking and grinding.
Talking to someone about it, he said that Ducati had issued a recall notice about it because the factory should have torqued them to 19 kg's not 12kg's.
Anyone know if this is true or where to definitively find out?:puzzled:

Don't think it was ever a recall. It's a long standing problem with all the bikes and Ducati did revise the torque spec from 186Nm to 210Nm.

Ducati UK would be able to tell you the definative answer

I read somewhere that factory recalls are only mandatory for safety related items. Good one eh!
