rear indicators falling apart

nickocaz · 11-Mar-2006, 01:07

my rear indicator orange lenses and black body on both sides are falling apart, plastic just seems to be disintegrating, weird!! Anyone else had this? Being replaced under warranty thankfully but pretty poor for an 05 bike with 2.2k on the clock.

quite a common problem apparently, mine smashed themselves to pieces in about 2000 miles. If you wind the throttle on at low revs the whole back end vibrates widly and shakes the lens's out. Ducati Glasgow got me some new ones under warranty (top blokes.)

Never had a problem with mine in 12000 miles.

(Yes, Andy, so long as the bike actually stays upright)
