Exhaust Sheared / Cracked

[Jayy]

Hmm, unsure what's happened here. On the 1299 Panigale, the exhaust loops up under the seat and connects to the engine higher up. Was out riding and suddenly everything sounded VERY loud.

Any ideas how it's sheared off like that?

It's under warranty like, it's only a year old, owned it from new.

Let's see what Ducati say tomorrow

[Hahadumball]

iirc it happened to one guy twice he had issues with his can and warranty was rejected

Just spoke to my local Ducati dealer on Facebook, they said use my Ducati recovery and get it recovered to them and they'll fix it under warranty

Update: Ducati said this happened to one last week, no questions asked, soon as I said what happened they said use your Ducati Recovery, get it recovered to us and we'll replace all the parts. Might take 10 days though.

My duke finally living up to the Ducati reputation...

Instead of voting this thread as "off topic", how about move it to wherever the fuck it's supposed to be?

General bike chat, what's the problem?

It's not workshop as you aren't asking advice.

Looks like it'll come back with free scratches too

Why the negative karma?

Is that strap going over the tank and fairings

[ADSrox0r]

That nylon strap will chew your paint

I would've put a towel over it.

It's not actually touching any paint, it's round the plastic for the ignition.

Those blue bits are like fluffy protection from the main corse strap material, which probably would damage the paint.

Ducati have replaced the back pipe with a new one, also replacing my front discs as they had some markings on them. Not done too bad there but add £200 service on + £200 for new brembo pads all round + £130 front tyre, stings a little

He said the one that they fixed the other week with the same issue had a full termi system on it. They're not sure why it happens, just attributing it to the extra heat generated with no cats / full system.

Mine doesn't have a full system but it has decatted end cans.

It looks like it's cracked behind the weld.it only takes a slight undercut from the weld process and it's game over.
