Ducati North America has recalled some units of the 2025 Ducati Panigale V2 and 2025 Ducati Streetfighter V2 due to a defect in the fuse installed in the ABS pump and control unit. The safety recall filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) states that during network product review, Ducati received a report of a defect, and after investigation discovered that two ABS fuses and their respective fuse holders may have been wired upside down during supplier wiring assembly.

According to the recall report, two ABS fuses, the 25A fuse for the ABS pump and the 10A fuse for the ABS control unit, and/or their respective fuse holders may have been wired upside down during supplier wiring assembly. From June 13, 2025, all motorcycles manufactured have been checked for correct position of fuses and their fuse holders.
Ducati says that if the two ABS fuses and/or their respective fuse holders are wired upside down, during prolonged braking when the ABS function is activated, the 10A fuse may blow, causing the ABS pump to stop working and causing front or rear wheel lock due to ABS failure. This can cause loss of control while riding a motorcycle and increase the risk of accident or injury.
On June 3, 2025, Ducati received a report from the Global Network stating that during braking with ABS intervention, the ABS warning light suddenly illuminated, and the rear wheel jammed, causing the rider to fall from the motorcycle without injury. Subsequently, the fault and its probable cause were analyzed, which revealed that the ABS fuse in this motorcycle was reversely installed.
Additionally, all Ducati motorcycles in production and warehouse stock were checked, which revealed two more errors in the assembly of the ABS fuse by the supplier. Subsequently, a network monitoring was initiated, which revealed seven more global cases of incorrect installation of ABS fuses by the supplier. During this period of global network monitoring, no accidents, injuries or property damage were reported. On December 2, 2025, Ducati Motor Holding’s Internal Safety Commission decided to launch a recall campaign for potentially affected bikes.
Ducati North America has informed dealers about the recall, and dealers will check the fuse and fuse holder positioning at no cost to customers of affected motorcycles. According to Ducati India, no bike sold in India is affected by this recall.
