The problem with paint chipping on OEM carbon panels is that Ducati do not adequately prep the panels prior to painting, resulting in poor paint adhesion. I guess this is down to the old time/cost equation and carbon takes a LOT more time and effort to prep than the OEM plastics or metal. I run into this problem all the time when repairing OEM carbon panels.

This issue should fall into the warranty catagory. I would pursue it with first the dealer where you bought the bike and if no joy there then with Ducati UK.

Best of luck if you decide to go down that road.

Cheers, Neil
