Emissions System Caught Fire Upon returning from a 40 minute, local motorcycle ride my 2015 Ducati 1199R started to smoke and then caught fire as I was riding it down my driveway. I saw the small orange flames and turned the bike off; fortunately a garden hose was nearby. After removing the exhaust system mufflers (includes cat), I observed that the operating cable (and associated black thermal insulation) for the exhaust system flapper valve had ignited and burned.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
