All sorted. Ducati Leeds were very efficient and got the pump sent, fitted, tested and bike returned. Since done another 400 miles and seems good.

I think you are running the full system? If so, then yes, there is a big hole in the fuelling between 4-5K rpm and if you hold the bike on a constant throttle in that range it feels awful. Apparently Ducati are aware of this and are releasing a new map in the not too distant future...... not date yet.

Mine does exactly the same.

As a side note, mine cut out completely on Sunday morning when I was crossing a dual carriageway! Fortunately it was early and there weren't any cars around and it stopped on the crossing on the central reservation. I had to push it back across to the side road and it took 4 or 5 goes with a bit of throttle to start. Ive also noticed a mysterious fuelling issue appearing at 7 and 9k rpm at full throttle in 5th and 6th gear. Perhaps my fuel pump is on the way out?

Hi Ben

Bit of a delay in responding as i sit here in the Andean sun in Chile drinking fine wine and chilling out! Needless to say, no Panigales evident here but a few Teneres etc.,

Now back on topic...

The symptoms you describe are exactly those I experienced. Get it checked out by the dealer is my advice.
